“Some people are simply not made to live in a community. » Catherine’s observation may seem a little exaggerated, although. In any case, it testifies to the exasperation that all the incivility that spoils our daily lives causes in us. And also make us angry against their authors, these I-don’t-give-a-fucks and other disgusting people who don’t care about the rules of common life, respect for others and cleanliness of the streets. On this subject as old as time but which is still a good indicator of the climate of our society, we therefore surveyed you to find out which incivility was the most unbearable in your eyes. “All of them are,” Sabrina replies. Which is not false, but some still have the gift of irritating more than others.
While we never stop talking about ecology and environmental protection, the issue of waste that pollutes our streets comes up regularly in your comments. Perry James is very angry with these people who are “unable to go to the recycling center and walk three meters to a trash can or who throw their shit out of their car window. » However, there is no shortage of places in the city to dump your waste. “But some people still put their bags on the ground instead of putting them in the column provided for this purpose,” Titou enrages.
Neighbors but not friends
If sorting is more developed there than in the city, the countryside is also full of dumpsites with “people who consider nature as trash,” Benjamin fumes. Used to hiking on the GR34, the famous customs officers’ trail in Brittany, Bernard can attest to this. “We see all kinds of garbage there, packaging, tissues, masks,” he says. It seems that lovers of nature and landscape expect that there will be good souls to pick up their filthy waste. »
We also don’t forget the dog droppings, the cigarette butts or the guy who pisses in the street and whose sight has never pleased many people. Just like the noises that set more than one person off. And especially those of its neighbors. “The neighbor upstairs who howls until 2 a.m., the dog across the street who barks from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. when his master is at work,” Jamy lists. Living in Issy-les-Moulineaux (Hauts-de-Seine), Fayçal was forced to move because the noises from the butchery below were driving him crazy. “From 5 a.m., and sometimes even 4 a.m., they started making an unbearable noise because they were breaking bones from carcasses,” he says.
Dirt, disrespect and screaming children
If living in society is not always easy, living in a housing estate is not either. And it’s not Sabine who will say the opposite. “Fed up with these people who use their 10 m2 of garden to install a trampoline or a mega swimming pool in which their children bawl at all hours under their neighbors’ windows,” she writes. There is also “the neighbor who drills at 8 p.m. on a Saturday” or the one from Virginie “who rides the lawn tractor every other day because it amuses the little one to take a ride on it every time the weather is nice. »
Like the annoying neighbors, disrespectful people also make our Internet users nauseous like Cathy, repulsed by “those who spit on the ground and blow their nose with their fingers”. In terms of disrespect, Christophe targets “retirees who wait until the weekend to mow or cut wood”, while Anne-Marie criticizes “those who put their feet on the seats in transport”.
We will stop this list of incivilities there because “it would be too long”, quips Freki ironically. And also an insoluble problem according to Patrick. “Nothing is really bearable,” he says. But let’s be realistic, few sanctions are taken. »
