Have you been stuck in a monotonous routine, feeling like a hamster on a wheel? Then maybe it’s time for you to shake things up a bit. According to the wisdom of the internet, here are 13 unmistakable signs that scream, “You need to get a life”:
13. When They Start Arguments For No Reason
Don’t you hate it when the person you’re talking to finds a reason to disagree with everything you say? Or simply picks a fight with you for no reason? People on Reddit think that’s a sure sign they don’t have a life. One person even drew a link to narcissism: “Yes and [starting arguments for no reason] can be found in narcissists (maybe it has to do with them wanting power).”
12. Managers/Colleagues Tracking Your Work
“The lady in my office who monitors how long everyone has been away from their computer.”
“I had 6 of these same women who reported me for going to the bathroom, walking to the printer or copier, applying hand lotion, taking someone’s spring water dues when they came to my desk to pay me, getting a personal phone call or playing solitaire online when our computer system was down. They watched just me constantly!”
11. “Starting Work Place Drama.”
“It never ceases to amaze me that people do this for the sole purpose of amusement. Most of us are struggling to get through the day with some sense of accomplishment and happiness and here they are deliberately trying to [ruin] that.”
“I don’t know if this is a “they don’t have a life problem” as much as it is an insecurity problem.”
10. Angry Managers Who Complain All the Time
“My manager gets mad at anyone who takes time off and complains about them the whole time they’re gone.”
“My managers who have been like this in the past also like to loudly proclaim how busy they are and that they’re drowning in work…Then I ask “Oh, well can I lend you some help?” And they’re like “Nah, I’m good.” They see themselves as the only competent employee, but never learn how to delegate and just end up bitter and isolated.”
9. “They Talk About High School All the Time.”
“Asks you what you got on your SATs. Gloats about their high score. When you’ve been working professionally for decades.”
“They revert back to telling stories of them in high school and college because that is when they felt they were ‘living.’”
8. “Worrying What Others Do With Their Life.”
“I think if someone is obsessed with what someone else does, they don’t have anything in their own life going on.”
“This is especially true for anyone who is obsessed about the *** life, or lack thereof, of someone other than them that they are not in a relationship with.”
7. “Using Followers and Likes as a Way to Feel Superior.”
“I know someone has no life when they get in an argument and say “says the person with 0 followers” as in insult…Like YOU spend all day on your phone making 10 second videos. Why are you proud of that?”
“I remember one time last year a guy tried to hit on me in a bar, I said ‘no sorry I have a boyfriend’ and he replied ‘does your boyfriend have 10k Instagram followers though?’”
6. “Being Obsessed With Celebrities.”
“As someone who used to be deep in the trenches of celebrity fandom and was obsessed with a few of them over the span of about 5 years, I can confirm. Stanning a celeb is a surefire sign of having no life.”
“But I think that’s literally the point of celebrities is to vicariously live through them as a form of escape – and I’d argue that’s a major role of art in general.”
5. “Reporting On Children Selling Lemonade and Water Without a Permit.”
“I cannot fathom this. I will literally turn the car around and make myself late for appointments just to buy lemonade at these places!”
“I always thought this was [not real] until I saw my neighbor call the cops on kids on my street. I know the cop who showed up. He bought a lemonade from them and told the neighbor they had a permit (they didn’t).”
4. “Posting Constantly on Social Media.”
“I remember this viral tweet from a guy saying if you play video games 2-3 hours a week, you’re wasting your life and comparing it to drinking alcohol. The most viral part was one of the replies calculating the amount of tweets the guy had made since he opened his account and found he was averaging 40 tweets per day.”
“And asking if you’ve seen their posts and/or why you didn’t react to them.”
3. “Too Much Gossiping.”
“And never producing something of value.”
“Going camping with my old friends consisted of sitting around a fire talking [trash] about someone that wasn’t there to defend themselves. Deeply insecure bunch.”
“Gossip is a big one. It has some use, it has a time and place, but it should be moderate at most.”
2. “They Drive Slow in the Left Lane.”
“And refuse to switch lanes because they’re going the speed limit and have decided they are now the arbiters of speed for the entire interstate.”
“Like, do these people not understand that you can get between places faster, and then magically you have more time available in the day?”
1. “Always Up in Everyone’s Business…”
“…And gets annoyed and passive aggressive if you don’t give more than one-word answers.”
“I always say ‘If you don’t have a hobby, then your hobby is bothering other people.’”
“…and can’t stop talking about politics.”
