judgement in the shopping line at walmart

Do you know them? Are they important to you? No? Cool. Then stop letting strangers upset you. You got way more important things to be worrying and stressing about than two people who decided to giggle over stuff in your cart.

Let. It. Go.

Next time as they are laughing ask them "what the **** is so funny?!?"

Meh, let 'em judge. Are you going to let it ruin your day?

As a former smoker, I can't take the high road, and we all do something that's not really wise, whether it be smoking, drinking, recreational drugs, eating...whatever.

Again, don't let it ruin your day.

last time this happened to me, I grabbed the bag of doritos that was sitting there at check out and started eating them. Then I looked them dead straight in the eye and said, dont be jealous. The laughing smile left their face pretty quickly.

We live in a society that judges on everything, so it's best to ignore people who judge.

Ugh, judgey people suck. People will always find a reason to judge you. Their opinions aren't worth your time :happy:

I like to stare right back at someone when they're staring at me... I drove through the semi-truck loading lane at WalMart last week to get from a back street to the WalMart parking lot. This snobby older lady in the passenger seat of a nice convertible was staring at me like I was satan. She wasn't even driving. And my detour made absolutely no impact on their route. So, I made a very obvious stare right back at her and waited until she looked away. People can be such *kitten* sometimes. Next time, stare right back and hold eye contact until she looks away. It always makes me feel better.

^^^^^ THIS!!! It is AMAZING how often people stare at me for some reason or another (maybe for having processed foods, sugar, little Debbie cakes in my cart AT Wal-Mart LOL) (not really but you smiled when you read it) Anyway, the majority of the time when I make direct eye contact with them and hold it, they look away. Most people are NOT very confident when it comes to having someone stare them right in the eyes....I was told once by a teacher in high school that if you hold eye contact with someone they know that they have your attention.....then I was told in college that I intimidated my professor because I stared at him the entire time he was teaching LOL

How do you know they weren't laughing because they bought some of those meals, cooked them and it spilled all over the kitchen floor? or how do you know they weren't laughing because they like the commercials of the foods?














Sound silly?
We cannot control other people, but we can control our own thoughts and behaviors. If it upset you that much, have a pity party for 15 minutes and move on. Life is too short to get upset about random people in public.

I have to agree with this. Last week I was in walmart with my bf. The lady behind us had big huge bags of potato chips in her cart. She also had a DVD of Despicable Me and an onion. My son can't say minions so he calls the characters in the movie "onions." I looked into her cart kinda casually and the movie and onion made me giggle because of the "onions" I also pointed it out to my bf and we laughed together. I really hope she didn't feel judged by our merriment.

And I'm sorry that YOU did. I hope you rise above it and don't worry so much about what others think of you. And I like frozen dinners on occasion just for the record.

Everywhere you go, people are judging you- the same way you judge everyone your gaze lingers on for any length of time (whether you're conscious of it or not). It was incredibly rude of them to make it obvious that they were judging you, but they were gonna judge anyway, and there's nothing you can do about it. You can't let it bother you. It's out of your control, the same way you can't stop yourself from forming first impressions of people you meet, accurate or not. This is why the worst superpower in the world would be to hear other people's thoughts- because only then would you be faced with the number of times a day other people think unflattering or inaccurate things about you. You'd also hear the good things, but most of us don't give as much weight to the positive as we do to the negative.

I'm kind of judging you for shopping at WalMart in the first place, but you totally shouldn't care what I think.

One of the best things I have learned in life is.... It's none of our business what other people think of us! Their actions and opinions don't define us. We are the ones that make the choices and decisions for our own life's. By doing so, we define who we are. Their opinions are formed from their own jealous opinions! Don't let it affect your mood since it doesn't affect you!
