People need to learn to keep their mouths closed

[dansazz]

So many people think they are entitled to run their mouth, and run people down, and think they are better then people, it is sick. Has everyone forgot the old saying if you aint got nothing nice to say, then don't say nothing?

[lorettahknox]

I find when you can keep your mouth shut people tell you everything. I love it! I don't think it's a good idea to run people down as you say. What most people don't get is that someone could be doing the same thing to them. It's just not worth it.

Then don't put your business in the street and people won't talk.

It is kind of ironic that when we keep our mouths shut people just yap yap yap.  I'll never forget in my younger days when I was a cashier.  Some people would chat up a storm revealing personal stories and information with me...a total stranger.  I understand being friendly and making small talk but sheesh sometimes you're right....people need to learn to keep their mouths closed.  I always tell my kids God gave us 2 mouths and only 1 mouth for a reason.... to listen more.

I always liked it when people talked to me as long as they dont go overboard. It gives you a change from your own problems. Some people just need to air it out to get it off their chest. It is better to come out than to take it out on someone or something. Look at all of the lunatics out there coming in and shooting people. 30+  years ago I lost a very good friend he owned his own store down the road from me. The day I didnt go to visit 2 robbers cam in and shot him to death. They robbed him. They got away with murder he lost his life.  He was an arab. I am not predjudice I have have friends of all ethnics  and nationalities. I am not coming down on you if you dont want to listen to them just ignore them. Yeah sure it make be bothersome just let them vent. People have to let things out ][/glow]

i don't mind people talking, as long as they don't ask me any questions

Wouldn't it be great if everyone was kind and considerate of other people?  What a wonderful world this would be if everyone treated everyone else like they would want to be treated! (The golden rule.)

It just happens we're all guilty of a little "diarrhea of the mouth"...you know when we forget to think and all we say is crap.

[kawmeenar]

If you have nothing nice to say, don't say it at all. Run it through your head, not out your mouth.

[ben50]

shutting peoples mouths anymore just does not exist, everyone always wants to fight all the time!!

[95langy]

I believe that those people are just ignorant. Depending on what they're saying of course. I mean hit because they don't stop talking doesn't necessarily mean its a bad thing. Anywho, I'm in this internship program and there's just interns that cannot for the love of the world stop talking and asking random questions when we have a presenter. Unfortunately we'll just have to be patient.

I believe in the saying that if you don't have anything nice to say you should refrain from saying anything at all.  I wish that I could follow my own advice sometimes.  I will accidently say something bad about a person and feel guilty about it afterwards.  I said something evil about a woman who complains about alot of things and treats people really poorly and I feel bad for having said something bad aout her.  What goes around comes around and she will have to face her demons at some point...I shouldn't hve been so petty and said something bad about her.

why when everything is going possitive in my day I come across someone crying about life.

Get over it.

I quite agree with your point, however ever I think God gave us 2 ears and one mouth. I don't think you meant to say He gave us 3 mouths
