Mine is the volume of their voice. If all that they can do is just talk too loudly with no reason for it and don't control the volume of their voice. That to me is a sign that you're a stupid fuck. Because people think the louder they are, the more righteous and attention seeking they are. Than it is to just listen, digest and respond accordingly to anyone talking around you.

for no reason

Just for the sake of argument, one good reason is actually something I dealt with for a while there: after having worked in a factory where hearing protection was absolutely mandatory for close to a year, for like two years after leaving that job I found myself shouting, even indoors, without even realizing it. It had just become second-nature.

My point is even if there doesn't seem to be a reason, there might be.

Edit: Just to be clear, it was a job where hearing protection was mandatory, and I was there for close to a year; it wasn't only mandatory for close to a year. Lol.

Blue collar dudes yell into cellphones. Doesn't matter how smart. They just do. It used to drive me nuts but I get it now.
