Everybody does all of these things, but that doesn't mean we can admit them to other people without embarrassment. Here are 20 things that everyone does, but society doesn't let us disclose.
1
Coming up with the perfect comeback in your head long after the other person left.
2
Making up fake scenarios in our head.
3
Have a full conversation with your pet. I can't be the only one.
4
Intrusive thoughts that make us question whether we're secretly psychopaths.
5
Reading messages from the notification bar and then pretending you didn't see the message only much later.
6
Winning fake arguments in your head.
8
Reading comments/texts multiple times after sending/posting them. Just to let the fact that you’re a modern day Shakespeare settle in.
9
Panic clean before guests come over to then apologize for the mess.
11
Making up conversations in my head before something important. I will say something and then the response from other person. Sometimes it can go for 10-15 min before I snap back to reality.
12
Get enraged at the things a bully did 40 years ago.
13
“It is not the picking of the nose that separates us, but what comes after.”
14
Fantasize about doing something/someone you shouldn't.
15
Look up words that people use because we don't know the meaning, even though we pretend to when they are talking.
16
Kids hide their profanity from adults, and adults hide their profanity from kids. Both sides must maintain the illusion that the other side doesn't know that they know profanity.
17
Tell small lies. Particularly to make us and others feel better.
18
Convincing yourself in your head that everyone around you is doing things perfectly and at full efficiency and expect the same of the people around them.
20
Assume you are of "above average" intelligence.
