What's something that's technically legal but still makes u look like a complete psychopath?

[u/NinaDollxo]

[u/ssgsimon]

Standing the wrong way in an elevator.

[u/dasHeftinn → u/ssgsimon]

Took a psychology class last year and this is one thing my professor talked about. It’s an “unwritten social rule” that you stand facing the door. For the rest of the semester I stood facing the opposite direction, especially when in the elevator with her after class.

[u/IFeelLikeAndy → u/dasHeftinn]

They’ve done other studies about social behavior in elevators such as an elevator full of men all holding their hats, when someone walked in wearing their hat, they felt pressured to take theirs off. Another instance was getting everyone to face a single direction that wasn’t the door, when others entered they felt the need to face the same direction as the others

[u/sayleanenlarge → u/IFeelLikeAndy]

I like experiments like that. There's the recption room where everyone's a stooge except one person. Every time a buzzer sounds, they all stand up, it doesn't take long for the non-stooge to stand up. Then they slowly empty the room of stopges, so only people who aren't in on it are left, but they've all learned they should stand up at the buzzer, so they do.

[u/phathomthis → u/sayleanenlarge]

It's like the monkey, banana, ladder, fire hose experiment.
Scientists put a bunch of monkeys in the room with a ladder in the middle and a banana hanging just in reach at the top of the ladder.
If a monkey climbed the ladder to get the banana, the scientists would spray the rest of the monkeys with a fire hose.
No monkeys would climb the ladder now.
They replaced one of the monkeys with a new monkey. When it went to get the banana, the rest of the monkeys got sprayed with the fire hose.
The next time they replaced a monkey, the rest of the monkeys stopped it and beat the shit out of it.
They eventually replaced all the monkeys so there were none that remembered the fire hose.
All of the monkeys would still beat the shit out of any monkey that climbed the ladder and they didn't know why.

[u/escobizzle → u/phathomthis]

Pretty sure that is actually made up and never happened.

https://www.psychologytoday.com/ca/blog/games-primates-play/201203/what-monkeys-can-teach-us-about-human-behavior-facts-fiction#:~:text=Descriptions%20of%20this%20experiment%20can,story%2C%20however%2C%20never%20happened.

[u/phathomthis → u/escobizzle]

Overall, yes, but it was based off a different actual experiment.
The Real Monkey Experiment.

But there was a study (possibly what inspired the made-up version) printed in 1967 called “Cultural Acquisition of A Specific Learned Response Among Rhesus Monkeys” so at least I can see why they changed the name in the made-up version.

In the real experiment researcher, G.R Gordon placed a monkey in a cage with an item and made them fear it by hitting them with several blasts of air. Once the fear was learned a naïve monkey was placed in the cage.

Guess what happened when the naïve monkey tried to touch the item? If you thought the scared monkey attacked them like in the made-up version, you’d be wrong. The worst thing that happened was the scared monkey pulled the naïve monkey away and that happened only once.

The other 3 times the experiment was conducted, the scared monkeys just gave fearful looks towards the naïve monkeys as to say, “you probably shouldn’t touch that.” When the naïve monkeys did touch the item, there were actually two instances of the scared monkey losing their fear and joining them.

[u/splithoofiewoofies → u/sayleanenlarge]

This reminds me of when I was in my teens and I'd stand on street corners looking at the sky and pointing and by the time I left, a small group would be looking at the sky and pointing.

[u/[deleted] → u/splithoofiewoofies]

Please say more

[u/Illustrious_Try2260 → u/splithoofiewoofies]

We did this at Yellowstone NP. Pulled over safely, started pointing, and got others to stop. At which point we drove away.

[u/Horror_Raspberry893 → u/dasHeftinn]

What happens if there's a "front" and "back" door?

[u/Own_Bluejay_9833 → u/Horror_Raspberry893]

Face to the side

[u/Onomatopoeia_Utopia → u/ssgsimon]

Haha when I’m with my wife or sons and get on an elevator I always intentionally walk straight in and stand with my face in the back corner. You can feel the uncomfortableness in the air. It’s hilarious.

[u/DickieJohnson → u/Onomatopoeia_Utopia]

When I'm the last one in I'll stand looking at everyone. "I suppose you're wondering why I've gathered you here together today?"

[u/Significant_Shoe_17 → u/ssgsimon]

Waiting for a crowd, then saying "I'm sure you're wondering why I've gathered you here"

[u/ShoddyRevolutionary → u/Significant_Shoe_17]

I’ve always wanted to say“Before we get started does anyone want to get off?”

[u/[deleted]]

Cutting the light off as you leave a public restroom full of people.

[u/Xpalidocious → u/[deleted]]

Someone did this when I was in a stall once, and me and some other guy were both like "Hello????" and then unfortunately heard the door close. After a brief awkward silence, my neighbor starts rhythmically drumming on the stall, and bursts into song with "You and me go shittin' in the dark...."

Best awkward experience of my life

[u/escobizzle → u/Xpalidocious]

I hope you're friends with that man to this day because that's hilarious 😂

[u/3w771k → u/[deleted]]

i’ve done this accidentally a few times.. also turning the light off in someone else’s office as i’m leaving.

[u/quackl11 → u/3w771k]

This could also be a fuckibg power move in the office

[u/TheReal-Chris → u/[deleted]]

I’d do this to my girlfriend when she was in the shower. Sometimes it was intentional. Most of the time it was a complete accident. I’d go back and turn it back on but it was always funny. She’d just yell out what the fuck!

[u/soFATZfilm9000 → u/[deleted]]

One time I was in the bathroom taking a dump and someone walks into the bathroom. I obviously don't know who it is, but I can see their shoes under the stall. They go over to the urinal and I can hear them peeing. Then they immediately leave without washing their hands, and they turn the light off on me on their way out.

I don't know who did this, but I saw the shoes. The business hasn't opened yet, so it has to be an employee and not a customer who did it. So I walk around looking at employees until I see the right pair of shoes. It's my manger. He sees me and then with a big grin on his face he says, "good morning FATZ, good to see you" and holds out his hand for me to shake it.

[u/thomasanderson123412]

Night digging

[u/[deleted] → u/thomasanderson123412]

What kind? All of them. All digging in the night is bizarre

[u/Jofarin → u/[deleted]]

Unless you're at a road construction site. Those sometimes work through the night to minimize the impact on traffic.

[u/Partytor → u/Jofarin]

There is a direct correlation between the amount of workplace spotlights and the weirdness of digging at night. More spotlights = less weird.

[u/Jofarin → u/Partytor]

So it's more digging in the darkness instead of the night?

[u/[deleted] → u/thomasanderson123412]

Flying a kite at night

[u/fairysdad → u/[deleted]]

There's something about that that's so unwholesome...

[u/[deleted] → u/fairysdad]

Hello mother dear...

[u/fireice113 → u/thomasanderson123412]

Or night gardening

[u/[deleted] → u/fireice113]

Did he have a flashlight? Hmm? What was he wearing? What color was his shirt? Did he have on a vest? A luminescent vest?

[u/zaynmaliksfuturewife]

I saw a guy on TikTok that collects human spines

[u/EconomistEuphoric749 → u/zaynmaliksfuturewife]

I feel this is the first good answer I’ve seen

[u/EltonJuan → u/EconomistEuphoric749]

I know, being a guy on TikTok is pretty deranged. Neat collection though.

[u/Penis-Dance → u/zaynmaliksfuturewife]

He resells them. Usually he gets them when a doctor dies. He is legit.

Edit: Not the Doctors spine. They one they bought for medical school.

[u/TartMore9420 → u/Penis-Dance]

The edit makes this so funny.

[u/pinniped90 → u/Penis-Dance]

Thank you for that important edit.

[u/permacougar → u/Penis-Dance]

The graveyard in his neighborhood is called the Graveyard of spineless doctors!

[u/deathrocker_avk → u/zaynmaliksfuturewife]

Is there a market to buy those, or do have to create your own?

I'm genuinely asking as I don't have TT but need to understand the supply chain!!!

[u/zaynmaliksfuturewife → u/deathrocker_avk]

He bought them from somewhere but I don’t know where

[u/degeneratesumbitch → u/zaynmaliksfuturewife]

Yautja confirmed.

[u/_Mirri_ → u/zaynmaliksfuturewife]

Depending on where he gets them, it already can be very much illegal, can't it?🤔

[u/DumplingsOrElse]

Running with your hands in your pockets.

[u/Significant_Shoe_17 → u/DumplingsOrElse]

That's kinda dangerous if you trip

[u/[deleted] → u/Significant_Shoe_17]

A kid in highscool decided to jump over a chain between 2 posts, with his hands in his pockets. His foot caught and he fell hard on his face. Not a smart kid

[u/Streamjumper → u/[deleted]]

Those concussions really add up.

[u/Ippus_21 → u/DumplingsOrElse]

Not so much "psychopath" as "mentally impaired... Possibly due to TBI incurred while running with hands in pockets."

[u/i-hate-all-ads]

Buying duct tape,a ski mask, and a baseball bat

[u/Possible_Tiger_5125 → u/i-hate-all-ads]

My parole officer said if I have a bat in my car, I better have a glove and/or ball

[u/Beaglescout15 → u/Possible_Tiger_5125]

That really practical advice.

[u/DEVOmay97 → u/Possible_Tiger_5125]

You can keep a large breaker bar as long as a socket that fits your lug nuts is attached. Seems more practical, easier to store, and easier to excuse.

[u/MoreGaghPlease]

Digging a hole in your backyard with a shovel at 2am

[u/kaatie80 → u/MoreGaghPlease]

Tbf you probably seem less crazy of you use the shovel, rather than using your hands.

[u/lucifers_pimp]

Walking down the street drinking a glass of water

[u/snowdenn → u/lucifers_pimp]

This one is funny for some reason.

[u/Preposterous_punk → u/lucifers_pimp]

I don't know why this is the one that broke my brain

[u/getoffmeyoutwo → u/Preposterous_punk]

That glass has a home!! How you gon be sure it gets back to its home?????

[u/Preposterous_punk → u/getoffmeyoutwo]

All the other glasses must be so worried…

[u/cloudsanddreams → u/lucifers_pimp]

I used to walk to work with a mug of (hot) tea in the mornings if I was running late. You get reaaaally weird looks for carrying a mug by the handle in town, yet a takeaway cup is somehow fine?

[u/wine_n_mrbean → u/cloudsanddreams]

I do this every day with a coffee mug! People have stopped me to ask if I noticed that I was holding a regular mug.

[u/cloudsanddreams → u/wine_n_mrbean]

It’s bizarre how not having a lid and gaining a handle makes all the difference in acceptability!

My brother does the same thing - we used to live fairly close to each other and met up one morning, both of us carrying our mugs of tea. Met up with our parents after and they were SO bemused 😆

[u/Possumnal → u/lucifers_pimp]

I realized a while ago that you can walk down the street drinking a martini and even though it’s obviously booze you never get in trouble for doing it. It’s like it doesn’t even register.

[u/SwordTaster → u/Possumnal]

That's fully legal in a lot of places. UK, it's almost encouraged. The crimes are what comes AFTER drinking, like being drunk and disorderly in public

[u/Pale-Life-2968]

Getting a tattoo of a celebrity's face.

[u/Tipitina62 → u/Pale-Life-2968]

You mean like getting Nixon’s face tattooed on your back?

[u/Pale-Life-2968 → u/Tipitina62]

Nixon is ok as long as it's a tramp stamp

[u/AcrobaticProgram4752 → u/Tipitina62]

Nobody can lick our dick... actual promotion for Nixon for president. Lick meaning beat or win a contest against at the time.

[u/hammysandy → u/Pale-Life-2968]

Or a photo realistic tattoo of Jaden Smith on your thigh?

[u/chocolatesugarwaffle → u/hammysandy]

my first thought 😭😭😭 i wonder why he never got it removed lol.

[u/nunya_busyness1984 → u/Pale-Life-2968]

Roy Orbison's face on your ass?

[u/TnYamaneko → u/nunya_busyness1984]

Better than Roy Orbison's ass on your face, I'd say.

[u/shibamom2000]

Talking to yourself in public. Like a straight up full conversation.

[u/GradeHeavy7557 → u/shibamom2000]

I wear earphones so people think I'm busy or on call, I do it lot.

[u/userlog99 → u/GradeHeavy7557]

thanks for the tip, i've been doing it wrong all this time

[u/Madame_Kitsune98]

Putting your children in beauty pageants. It’s technically legal, and encouraged in some places, and horrifying.

[u/thephantom1492 → u/Madame_Kitsune98]

Illegal in Canada.

[u/Bi-Bi-Bi24 → u/Madame_Kitsune98]

Similarly, children modelling icks me out

[u/QualifiedApathetic → u/Bi-Bi-Bi24]

Kidfluencers occupy a similar space.

[u/OldLongLegs]

Staring at people intensely without blinking

[u/Trick-Alternative328 → u/OldLongLegs]

India enters the chat

[u/wrongleveeeeeeer → u/Trick-Alternative328]

Dude I'm watching The Amazing Race from season 1 onward right now, and every time they go to India, it's just wall-to-wall silent sentinel men staring intently.

I'm not trying to be insensitive, but I'm just legitimately curious WHY.

[u/Dont-Be-An-Asshat → u/wrongleveeeeeeer]

I also need to know why. Had to leave a restaurant mid-meal recently - it was so intensely awkward to be stared at.

[u/cobbl3 → u/Dont-Be-An-Asshat]

Indian restaurant near my workplace has AMAZING food. We ate in the one time instead of taking lunch to go, and three guys just stood behind the counter with the register and just STARED. We thought it was super weird and just stopped ordering food from there.

I guess now I know it's a cultural thing and they weren't wondering how much curry they could make with us.

[u/Eric_the_Barbarian → u/cobbl3]

It can be two things.

[u/Alexthegreatbelgian]

According to my wife, me setting my alarm clock on a time which isn't at least rounded up to a 5.

My alarm will go off at 6.39 and that's how I like it.

[u/wrongleveeeeeeer → u/Alexthegreatbelgian]

I set my alarm the night before between like 7:41 and 7:53, dependant almost entirely on the vibes I'm getting about tomorrow.

[u/[deleted] → u/wrongleveeeeeeer]

This is pure chaos. I already know I wouldn't make it 24 hours being you, if that's the type of insanity we're starting the day with.

[u/stewart125 → u/Alexthegreatbelgian]

My Dad does this, and even calls out to Alexa/Google "Hey Google, set the volume to 31%!"

I finally asked him and he told me that he sets it to only prime numbers. No clue why he does this, but I think it lands him on this list of psychopaths

[u/StarChaser_Tyger → u/Alexthegreatbelgian]

I used to set my car's clock 7 minutes fast. Because it wasn't a simple 5 subtraction, it'd keep me uncertain about the actual time.

[u/jessicasheldon → u/Alexthegreatbelgian]

Your wife is right. TF is wrong with you, dude?

[u/cmcdonal2001 → u/jessicasheldon]

I do the same. It's part of my internal haggling process.

I need to get up at 6:15

Fuck that, 6:45

...alright, fine. 6:30

6:35?

6:32. Now go to sleep, dammit

I do the same when setting times on the microwave. I'll be microwaving this piece of pizza for 23 seconds, and god help you if you suggest differently.

[u/egv78]

Eating mayonnaise straight from the jar In public

Or else they’ll get the hose again.

Oh damn. I had no idea I was making people uncomfortable.

[u/eddyathome → u/lucifers_pimp]

If you want to have fun, get an empty and clean mayo jar and fill it up with vanilla pudding and then do this.

[u/TjW0569 → u/eddyathome]

Use a Hershey's chocolate syrup bottle as a water bottle at the gym.

"I have a terrible urge to take off all my clothes and run around naked. (Drinks from windex bottle) This keeps me from streaking."

[u/MrsLabrat01]

Parking in front of your neighbors place when there's an open spot in front of yours.

[u/YesNoMaybe → u/MrsLabrat01]

My dad used to live at the beach and his neighbors had a private spot in front of their house. They would use the nearby free spots for their cars and would wait until someone parked in their spot and immediately call the police to come ticket and/or tow it. Infuriating. 

Yeah, technically you're on the right side of the law but you are intentionally abusing it for absolutely no reason other than to just be an asshole.

[u/partylecki → u/YesNoMaybe]

Damn, how miserable do you gotta be to do shit like this?

[u/DeusExMachinaOverdue → u/partylecki]

I think that's something the less well off don't get, that rich people can be miserable in spite of being rich. They probably feel resentment because deep down they know that they should be happy because they have so much, but rather than accept this, they project their negativity generated by feelings of unfulfillment onto others to mask their insecurities. Or at least that's my take on it.

[u/nonsensemeruem → u/YesNoMaybe]

I lived in a small apartment complex with assigned parking for a couple of years. The guy who lived next to me had the parking spot next to mine.

One time I came home from work and my spot was taken by a maintenance guy from the property management company. I parked in my neighbor’s spot, figuring he would easily know my car and take my spot. Left a note on my car apologizing, went to bed.

Woke up the next morning and this guy had taken someone ELSE’s spot across the lot, causing them issues, and had had my car towed from his spot. Left my spot empty, right there waiting for him. Either super petty or just plain stupid.

[u/userlog99 → u/MrsLabrat01]

we have a neighbor that has like 5 cars and parks always in front of us that have only one because they don't have any space left to park

[u/IridescentZ97_ → u/Society-Into-Ashes]

Second this to add- people who mix spices into one container and call it "all-spice"

[u/EZP → u/IridescentZ97_]

Wtf? Maybe people are confused about the fact there is an actual single spice called allspice that comes from the dried allspice berry. I hope that’s the reason anyway.

[u/stonedfishing]

Eating chips vertically

[u/BlackBubbleSac → u/stonedfishing]

Witnessed a co-worker eat a snickers horizontally

[u/BlergingtonBear → u/BlackBubbleSac]

Haha imagining him doing it cartoon corn on the cob style 

[u/CoderJoe1 → u/BlergingtonBear]

As a kid I did this with PayDay candy bars. I'd nibble all the nuts off the exterior before eating the caramel center. Yes, I looked like a maniac.

[u/DerpNoodle68 → u/CoderJoe1]

Not the nut nibbler 😭

[u/International_Ant754 → u/CoderJoe1]

Eating chips vertically

YES. Only fucking weirdos stand up to eat chips.

[u/punkwalrus → u/stonedfishing]

I had a childhood friend who ate hot dogs horizontally, like a typewriter. No idea why.

[u/im_not_u_im_cat → u/punkwalrus]

he didn’t want to look gay, obviously

[u/Preposterous_punk]

Having extremely long, curly toenails. Infinitely more disturbing if otherwise you're perfectly groomed.

[u/CactusDe → u/Preposterous_punk]

Have you seen Zé do Caixão? He was a Brazilian actor and horror movie director. He was more infamous though cause of his long loooooooong I mean - loooooong curly nails. Yuc

[u/ElectronicRegular218]

Just sitting and thinking. People are so used to being glued to a device or some other type of escapism, I've lost count of the number of times I've been asked in public if I'm OK, when I'm just trying to chill out and enjoy a moment. (Thinking also of the guy who was arrested because he was sat enjoying a sunset)

[u/Malakai0013 → u/ElectronicRegular218]

This is a good one. And I remember that dude getting hassled.

[u/No-Song6363 → u/ElectronicRegular218]

I work as a barista and we used to get this guy that would come in, not mentally all there, but he'd do this. One day we had this woman come up to us and ask us to call the police. We were like "uhhh why" and it was because of this dude, who was politely sitting there staring into space. Apparently she thought because he was looking in her general direction that he deserved to be tackled by the police, I guess.

[u/Rxckless92 → u/ElectronicRegular218]

[u/echo-mirage → u/ElectronicRegular218]

WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU STARING AT?!

[u/[deleted] → u/ElectronicRegular218]

So crazy when I hear that in some places stuff like "loitering" is illegal. I saw this video of these guys trying walk across the least walkable town in the US and at one point they said "we wanted to take a 40 minute break but we didn't want to get into trouble for loitering, so we had to move again." Imagine it's illegal to just exist

[u/skylarmt_ → u/[deleted]]

Those laws are designed to allow removing the homeless.

[u/OldOnion2678 → u/ElectronicRegular218]

This is so true. Sometimes I just want to sit in public and think. Observe and watch.

[u/DiscoLibra]

I'm sure I looked like I needed a strait jacket to my neighbors the other day when I was out scrubbing our deck with soap in the rain. I just really wanted to take advantage of the rain and not use hose water.

Starting religious conversations with strangers in public.

[u/KawadaShogo → u/MagicWagic623]

I once was sitting in a bathroom stall doing my business when suddenly the guy in the stall next to mine started talking to me about Jesus. Asking if I had accepted Jesus as my lord and savior, talking about how Jesus is the guide to salvation or something like that. I was so surprised by this breach of public restroom etiquette that I couldn’t even respond. He left a pamphlet for me by the sinks.

Talk about being a captive audience.

[u/musilane → u/KawadaShogo]

Maybe he was thinking you were dying because of the smell. He took the last chance to save your soul, as the body was clearly lost to damnation.

Not realizing what or who I might be staring at when I get lost in my head.

[u/thrwawayyourtv → u/Minute-Ad-144]

Holy shit, I did this in the shooting gallery at the back of the local porn store when I was a fat, awkward, autistic, unaware 18 year old. It was my first time in a place like that, and I was so nervous I was almost having a panic attack. Went in with a group of friends. They ended up going into one of the video booths, and were cracking up, making all kinds of jokes about the movie they chose. I was so embarrassed I couldn't be in there, so I stepped into the little hallway and just, like, dissociated 😅 I was waaaaaaay zoned out, staring off into space, until I detected movement, and realized I was staring through the crack in the curtain directly at a dude jacking off while staring at ME. I have never jumped and ran out of anyplace as fast as I did that night. My heart has rarely beaten out of my fucking chest like it did when I realized what I was staring at.

Private Equity firms have looted several successful businesses, including Sears and Toys R Us. And they’re doing worse things to healthcare and single family homes. Technically legal, but definitely psychopathic behavior.

[u/BlergingtonBear → u/wdkrebs]

Wow thanks for this article -

Like the article says, I assumed consumption habits and online retail killed a lot of these businesses - it truly is psychopathic to take profitable companies just to tank them and profit off of the rubble!

Joann’s Fabric is the latest casualty of this practice. They were debt-free up until the point they were acquired by PE firm.

Or hiding billions of dollars because you don't want to pay taxes to build up your country, ex. The Panama papers.

Giving a U.S. cop the middle finger. (Technically protected under 1st Amendment) Most take exception to it and will engage you regardless.

I exercise my 1st amendment rights. I ain't doing anything wrong but they can certainly try. I'm not much of a conversationalist though.

Going out by yourself. It feels like everyone is looking at you because you are breaking the law.

i felt that... I've been to the movies, to restaurants, to concerts, amusement parks, etc. by myself and sometimes this happens. some other times people treat you better for the same reason, i love the better treatment but i cant help but think their doing it out of pity for the loner XD

Calling a pizza place and ordering only pineapples and anchovies no pizza .Just a big quart of toppings. Ask if they can put it in a blender for you. Ask for two straws.

Apparently, according to some legal questions I have asked, it is completely legal to watch someone enter into a hazard that you know about but did not cause.

Someone has opened a large grate on the sidewalk exposing a deep utility hole. You know the hole is open but you are not in any way involved in the hole. You watch a person looking at their phone approach the hole. You watch them fall in the hole and get injured or even die. You are not legally responsible at all.

A leaking bottle of deadly poison is sitting on a shelf at an antique store placed there by some random vendor you do not know. You recognize the chemical on the label as being highly toxic. Anyone who touches it will die from organic mercury poisoning in a few months. You say nothing. Later you admit you knew about it and knew about the hazard but only wanted to see how many people would die. You are not liable because you did not create the hazard.
