10 types of people who piss off on New Years

If you recognize yourself, there is still time to revise your holiday plans.

This article is part of the Auto-da-fe project. In it, we declare war on everything that prevents people from living and becoming better: breaking laws, believing in nonsense, deceit and fraud. If you've come across a similar experience, share your stories in the comments.

1. Lovers of alcohol

Let's be honest: the fact that a person who has gone through with alcohol looks prettier, smarter, more eloquent seems only to him. The more sober members of his company get, at best, not the most pleasant interlocutor. At worst, it is necessary to make sure that he does not harm anyone and does not injure himself, break up fights, keep him over the sink and do a lot of other unpleasant work.

But that's not all. Every third crime is committed under the influence of alcohol. If you subtract bribes, official forgeries and the like from these statistics, it will be worse. More than 70% of murders in Russia were committed by drunks. This is a good reason to stay away from alcohol abusers.

2. Wild fans of the holiday

New Year is a massive celebration where people have loud fun. It is customary to launch fireworks all night long, and often everything turns into a violent orgy. At the same time, the celebrants themselves have fun, but those around them are not very much.

Not sleeping until the morning is not the healthiest pastime. Children, elderly people, those who have returned from daily watch, owners of frightened pets have to stay awake because of the cannonade of fireworks.

In the hustle and bustle of a noisy holiday, it is important to stop on time.

3. Garbage Pile Architects

The Italian tradition of throwing trash out of the window on New Year's Eve is less and less practiced in the Apennine Peninsula. It is dangerous for cars and pedestrians. But in Russia she is more alive than all living things.

Rubbish doesn't necessarily fly out of the window. But in any case, it does not enter the container.

After New Year's Eve, the remains of fireworks, Christmas trees, as well as jars, bottles and bags lie everywhere for a long time. One could complain that utilities do not clean well. But they are not the only ones to blame.

4. The hype makers

Since 2012, no one has predicted the apocalypse for us. However, some act as if it is about to come. Nothing else can explain the huge queues in stores, the lack of empty seats at hairdressers and sometimes - even in 2019 - empty shelves. Is that the desire to equip the bunker and go underground beautiful.

As a result, a person who always has a haircut in the last week of the month and eats peas not only in New Year's salad should walk around shaggy and hungry.

5. Razorbayi

People who do not fulfill their obligations are always annoying. But before the New Year it is felt especially. December is the period when it is necessary to fulfill the five-year plan in three years. The number of tasks does not decrease. But in recent days, few people will work.

The ideal approach is to do everything in advance. But there is bound to be someone who doesn't give a damn about deadlines. As a result, the implementation of a standard task will turn into a feat. You will need to do something truly heroic to complete it.

However, such people are found not only at work. After shifting a bunch of things and coming to a meeting with a friend, you can easily hear that he forgot about her or "unexpectedly" got into a traffic jam, so you just need to wait for him for two hours.

6. Givers of bad gifts

Good gifts vary depending on the interests of the recipient. Bad gifts are usually the same: things with the symbols of the year, candles, photo frames and other shower gels. Moreover, they are handed over not only to unfamiliar people who are difficult to please, but also to loved ones.

Such people always have defenders. They say, they don't look a gift horse in the mouth and, in general, a person wanted to do something nice. No, so he hoped to simply simplify his task and bought what came to hand.

When they want to do something pleasant, they choose what the person will like.

In the age of social media with tons of personal information and crumbling stalls, it's not hard to find something cool with a personal touch.

7. Jedi congratulations

Legend has it that if you don't turn off notifications in some chats and apps on New Year's holidays, you will spend a lot of time looking at virtual flickering postcards. Moreover, you have never seen half of the senders. What makes them do the mass mailing to the entire list of friends is a mystery shrouded in darkness.

One might assume that this should be reassuring, but usually this rarely works. It's just that this is not any congratulations, but banal spam. They open the message, write "Thank you, and you," and forget. All this is a waste of time for both the sender and the recipient.

8. Keepers of traditions

These people know exactly how many salads should be on the table, when to put the Christmas tree, what to give to children and with whom to celebrate the holiday. Attempts to move away from tradition lead to a long and tedious lecture about how it should be. When and by whom - it does not matter, argumentation is not the strong point of the keeper of traditions. Everyone did so - and you need to.

Even if you do not take them seriously, the keepers can get on your nerves in order. The worst thing is when there are several such people nearby and their traditions are different. True, this is not only a problem, but also a way out of the situation: you can bring them together in a fierce verbal battle and quietly leave the battlefield.

9. The hoaxers

Lovers of the supernatural could be added to the keepers of traditions, but they deserve a separate point. Who else will make a scandal over the menu at the last moment, because “you can't eat pork in the year of the pig”? Who will predict 33 misfortunes because the outfit is of the wrong color? Who schedules the ceremony of opening a bottle of champagne at midnight by the second, because you still have to have time to burn a piece of paper with desires?

In general, hoaxers are harmless as long as they do not become overly zealous. But you should be prepared for the fact that it is you who blunder and will be guilty that the year did not work out.

10. Thieves of the holiday mood

With New Year's mood it can be different. Someone every year is delighted with the thought of garlands and Christmas trees. And someone completely ignores that the holiday is coming to us. Both are normal.

But sometimes people who have not grown together with the New Year mood begin to spoil it for those who are more fortunate.

When someone's behavior interferes with the lives of others, or even violates the laws, he really should be censured and condemned (which is what we are doing in this text). But there are absolutely harmless things in preparation for the New Year. The number of garlands in someone else's house and mayonnaise in other people's salads is a purely personal matter. As well as the desire to go to bed on December 31 at 10 pm and sleep through all this festive orgy.

Let's paraphrase a quote from Schiller's novel especially for the New Year: celebrate yourself and let others celebrate.
