Play 'Never Have I Ever' And We'll Tell You If You're The Rudest Person In The World

We run across people every day that just seem to spit in the face of common decency, refusing to treat each other and the world with the respect that the majority of the rest of us do.

We can probably chalk up acts of rudeness to sheer ignorance in some cases, bouts of temporary insanity in others. However, there are also those people who do these things over and over again without pity or remorse, stamping themselves as some of the rudest people in the world.

With this quiz, we want to find out which side of the rude divide you stand on, delving deep into your soul to uncover your darkest acts. We've all done some of the things on this list, there's no doubt about it and there's no shame in it. No one is perfect. But if you've done enough of these things, chances are you just don't care all that much about what effect your actions have on other people.

Are you one of the rudest people in the world? Take the quiz and find out! After you're done, share your thoughts in the comments on what you think the rudest thing is that someone can do.

Question 1

Never Have I Ever Not Picked Up My Dog's Poop

This one is all too common, if the mounds of fly-covered poop festering on sidewalks and on people's lawns are anything to go by. If picking up dog poop is "beneath" someone, then they either shouldn't be owning a dog, or they should be paying someone to walk their pet and do the honor of removing their waste for them. Or they could always, you know, get over themselves.

Question 2

Never Have I Ever Stared at My Phone While on a Date

These people really know how to make a great first impression. Rather than show interest in their date or at least talk about themselves in an effort to make conversation and try to impress their date, these soulless husks instead stare at their phone half the time. Why? Because they're oh-so-important, and there are absolutely vital texts that have to be read right now, or celebrities' Instagrams to see and comment on. Finding a partner and actually having a real life? Meh.

Question 3

Never Have I Ever Taken Credit for Someone Else's Work

Anyone who's never worked at a large company (or heck, even many smaller ones) probably doesn't realize how prevalent this is in the workplace. If it's unclear who was delegated a specific task when it comes time for it to be presented, it's not at all surprising for one or more people to claim credit for it, sometimes to the total exclusion of the person who actually did the work. There is some justice in the world at times however, as if the work actually stinks, the thief gets the blame.

Question 4

Never Have I Ever Cut in Line

One of the ultimate examples of rudeness and selfishness is perpetrated by people who cut into lines, vaulting themselves ahead of where they should be at the expense of others. This kind of behavior just reeks of someone who doesn't care about fairness or civility, which are the glue that hold society together, essentially being anarchists who think the world should just be a free-for-all ready to be exploited.

Question 5

Never Have I Ever Loudly Argued in Public

This is something most of us have probably done at least once, but is quite rude nonetheless. However, it's easy to get caught up in a heated moment and let yourself get carried away, and once it starts and any pretense of remaining civil is gone, it usually only spirals down into greater madness and screaming from there.

Question 6

Never Have I Ever Taken Up Two Parking Spots

We know, they probably had a great excuse: they were in a hurry, or there were no other cars around so they didn't think it mattered. Actually, those aren't really great, they're just kind of lame, but whatever. In reality, even if this is done at the far end of an empty parking lot, it just looks like a douchey "look-at-me" move. Don't be douchey.

Question 7

Never Have I Ever Undertipped a Waiter Due to Poor Food

This is oh-so-tempting to do when you're frustrated with the quality of your meal, but a mature person should be able to separate the fact that the waiter is not responsible for that and shouldn't be penalized for it. A bad meal is paid back by never returning to that restaurant, not taking it out on the wait staff and kitchen staff.

Question 8

Never Have I Ever Gotten Carried Away With a Makeout Session in Public

While a person shouldn't shy away from displaying affection publicly, taking it too far can make other people uncomfortable or even disgusted. Believe it or not, people don't want to see strangers going at it like two animals in heat. As soon as groping starts happening, that makeout session is probably getting too carried away for public consumption.

Question 9

Never Have I Ever Made a Negative Comment to a Stranger

Some people just feel entitled to make comments about whatever they want to, including the physical appearance or actions of complete strangers. Apparently, their opinions are just so amazing and timely and relevant that they just have to be said. Yet somehow, all that seems to come out of their mouths the majority of the time is verbal diarrhea. I guess it makes sense, cause when diarrhea wants to come out, it will come out.

Question 10

Never Have I Ever Asked a Woman if She Was Pregnant When I Wasn't Sure

Unless it's completely obvious that a woman is pregnant (in which case you don't really need to ask, do you?), it's extremely rude to ask, given the possibility that she isn't pregnant at all, but just happens to have a large gut. This is a hard one to avoid, because it's a natural reaction to seeing a woman in such a state, and you may even feel like you're being rude if you don't ask and congratulate her, but it needs to be uncovered in another way.

Question 11

Never Have I Ever Dated a Friend's Ex

There may be circumstances where this is alright, based on how nasty their breakup was and whether or not you have your friend's consent to do so. However, in general people should think twice about doing this, and not just for their friend's sake, but for their own. There are just so many potential landmines along this course that it's rather foolhardy and kind of desperate to attempt it.

Question 12

Never Have I Ever Taken Photos or Videos of Strangers

Unless someone has a very good reason for doing so, like monitoring potential criminal activity or something that is otherwise newsworthy, this is a big no-no. We should all be fighting for each other's privacy rights, not violating them. The most egregious form of this is actually putting photos or videos of another person online for the world to see. No matter how desperate someone may be to stroke their online ego and get a following on YouTube or Instagram, they should never stoop to this level.

Question 13

Never Have I Ever Driven Slowly in the Fast Lane

If you're a slow driver, you should "get out da way" in the words of Ludacris, cause you're going to be holding back an entire line of vehicles and not only that, it can be dangerous to disrupt the flow of traffic in the passing lane like that. We get that driving in the right lane can be annoying, what with the constant merging and giant trucks in your face, but suck it up or swipe left and drive faster.

Question 14

Never Have I Ever Laughed at the Misfortune of Someone Else

The German language actually has a word for this, called schadenfreude, which means to take pleasure from another's misfortune. Not only is it extremely rude if done in someone's presence, it also suggests that something may be lacking in that person's life that seeing other people fail makes them happy.

Question 15

Never Have I Ever Answered the Phone During Sex

Unless it was understood by both parties that an important phone call was incoming and would need to be taken, this is one of the rudest things that can be done in the bedroom. Talk about a slap in your partner's face when taking a phone call is more exciting than the sex.

Question 16

Never Have I Ever Thrown Trash Out of My Car Window

It's just not enough for some people to litter, they need to do it in the most arrogant, dismissive way possible by chucking the trash in their car out the window while driving, like the world is their garbage can. And if you think this practice is rare, think again; a 2016 British poll showed that nearly 15% of drivers admitted to having tossed something out of their car windows within just the past month.

Question 17

Never Have I Ever Spit in Someone's Food

Yuck. While someone else's spit isn't going to kill a person (they'll likely never have any idea it was there), this is an extremely violating thing to do to someone. It's probably not quite as common as we fear in the food service industry, but nonetheless, one shouldn't go out of their way to be rude to servers or overly finicky about their meals, or they may get some rude treatment back.

Question 18

Never Have I Ever Not Given a Subway/Bus Seat to a Pregnant Lady or Elderly Person

Standing on the bus or subway stinks, no doubt about it, especially when you're crammed in among other seatless passengers like sardines in a can. Now imagine being pregnant or frail and having to endure that and you'll understand why it's rude not to at least offer your seat to such a passenger.

Question 19

Never Have I Ever Picked My Nose in Public

It's one thing to go mining for nuggets in the privacy of one's own home or room, but do try to avoid doing so in public, no matter how juicy that morsel feels up there. Seeing a stranger pick their nose is quite disgusting and generates instant revulsion on a level that may not be entirely warranted, but is nonetheless the feeling one gets.

Question 20

Never Have I Ever Been in Public After Not Showering for More Than a Week

Many of us have probably gone a few days without showering, but a week is really pushing it. After a week there is a noticeable odor clinging to you that cologne won't mask, which is the mistake that many people make. Instead, the two powerful odors will combine to form an even stronger, mutated odor that will likely gag anyone in the vicinity.

Question 21

Never Have I Ever Taken My Shoes and Socks Off on a Plane or Train

A person very well may want to be comfortable and having their feet stuffed into their shoes may be anything but comfortable. But other people don't want to have to look at their feet, or worse yet, smell them. It's public transportation, not a beach. Bad enough that people wearing open-toed sandals everywhere has become a thing.

Question 22

Never Have I Ever Made Racist Comments Around Strangers

If a person and their friends or family are often racist around each other, that could lead to them getting too comfortable with the idea that being racist isn't such a big deal. But strangers may not feel at all comfortable around such talk and may even be quite offended by it, especially when it's expressed so openly.

Question 23

Never Have I Ever Called a Partner the Wrong Name in Bed

Ah yes, the old Freudian sex slip. While this one may be on a more subconscious level than most of the other entries in this quiz, it's nonetheless one of the worst. An instant mood killer and possibly even relationship killer, it's hard for the offended party to get over this slight, unintentional as it may be. And it's not all that hard to understand why; they expect you to be in the throes of passion with them and connected with them on the deepest level, not conjuring up images or thoughts of some other random person.

Question 24

Never Have I Ever Had Excessively Loud Sex in the Vicinity of Others

Ladies are often the culprit of this one. Whether they're bad actors overacting an incredible orgasm, or just completely oblivious as to how loud they are being is anyone's guess, but some women are comically loud at times when getting laid; except anyone else hearing it isn't laughing. Well, they might be, but they're probably quite distracted and annoyed by the whole thing as well.

Question 25

Never Have I Ever Not Returned My Shopping Cart

The monumental inconvenience of having to take a whole one minute of their time to push their shopping cart back to the store or to the nearest cart storage area in the parking lot is just too much for some people, who instead just leave them sitting there in the parking lot while they drive away so they can get home one minute sooner to watch Netflix and swipe at their smartphones on the couch; you know, more important things.

Question 26

Never Have I Ever Bragged About How Much Money I Make

There's nothing most people will care less about than how much money someone makes, or how well their stock portfolio is doing, particularly people that aren't nearly as well off as them. If someone asks or it's the topic of conversation, then that's one thing, but if someone is just going to bring up the size of their paychecks for the purposes of bragging, their bank account is only outdone by their ego.

Question 27

Never Have I Ever Left My Phone's Ringer On at Church or the Theater

It's a complete given that people should turn the ringers on their darn phones off when they're in a place like a church or movie theater, which makes it that much more shocking and rude when we hear someone's phone merrily ringing away. Accident though it may be, accidents often happen due to neglect, which is caused by not really having enough presence of mind to be aware of looming social disasters like that.

Question 28

Never Have I Ever Chewed Gum Like I Was Making Love to It

There's a person every now and then who chews gum like they're making love to it with their mouth, making grandiose displays of chewing it, moving it around in their mouths, and often being quite loud in the process. This could be the result of sticking way too much gum in their mouth or simply being bereft of the ability to chew their gum like a normal person. Either way, it's quite horrifying and yet also fascinating to behold.

Question 29

Never Have I Ever Not Used Headphones in Public

You may think your musical tastes are the bomb, but others may not, or simply may not want to hear it at that time. Playing games on a phone without headphones is an even worse offense, as those game sound effects are often repetitive and grating to those not playing it.

Question 30

Never Have I Ever Ignored Basic Manners

If someone holds a door for you, it's only common courtesy to say thank you. When you accidentally spill something on someone, manners would dictate that you apologize. If you're about to ask a big favor of a friend, you should probably bust out a please or two. Without these basic manners, civilization as we know it would crumble and the fabric of the universe would probably unravel as well. In short, don't forget your manners.

Question 31

Never Have I Ever Taken Over the Sidewalk

If you spend enough time walking around, you're bound to come across groups of friends taking up the entire breadth of the sidewalk as they move along in unison. When confronted by people coming from the opposite direction, one of them will usually be good enough to move aside (should be the person on the left, as it's generally accepted practice to use the right-side of sidewalks, similar to roads). However, there is always that one group who refuses to budge, often by pretending you're not there. Not only is this rude, it's actually quite aggressive, as it's a physical invasion of what should be another person's space.

Question 32

Never Have I Ever Not Flushed a Dump

Anyone who uses public bathrooms frequently is sure to have come across rather disgusting presents being left behind by strangers now and then. Maybe they just forgot or maybe they were so proud of their work of art that they wanted others to behold its majesty and maybe add to it. No one knows, but there's probably a university working on a study of it right now.

Question 33

Never Have I Ever Coughed in Someone's Face

What could be more utterly disrespectful, even absurdly so, and yet there are people out there who will do it. It's like they don't realize that parts of their body can be used to block the extrusion of flying mucus and microbes from their mouths, just chalking it up to fate that they coughed and the particles will fly where they may.

Question 34

Never Have I Ever Double Parked

What a powerless feeling to return to your car with the intent of driving off into the wild blue yonder (or maybe just to McDonald's), only to find that someone has blocked you in by double parking. It's like they've stolen your freedom, your spirit of exploration, your very soul. Only cruel, heartless, and very rude people could do such a thing, even to someone who was going to cram McDonald's crud down their throats.

Question 35

Never Have I Ever Hijacked a Conversation

There are few things ruder than a person who smashes a pleasant conversation (or even a boring one) to pieces because they don't know how to gracefully insert themselves into it and gradually change the subject. Instead, they just run it over like it was so much roadkill (which again, it may have been, but that's beside the point) and force the conversation they want on the group.
