Are you remarkably quick compared to your peers? Can you juggle multiple tasks simultaneously? Do others seem anxious in your presence? If so, you might fall into one of two categories: 1) an exceptionally charismatic superhero, or 2) someone with a severe case of impatience.
If you’re uncertain, here are 20 indicators that suggest you might be a bit impatient:
- You never wait for the microwave to finish its countdown.
- A slow Internet connection gives you an increased heart rate.
- You consistently arrive early and feel irritated by those who are merely punctual.
- You firmly believe that the “close door” buttons in elevators are utterly ineffective.
- You avoid using grocery coupons because organizing them is too time-consuming.
- The vehicle in front of you at a traffic light has a mere half-second to move when the light turns green before you honk.
- You find it perplexing that some individuals don’t feel the need to rush.
- You complete bathroom visits as quickly as possible (no need to admit it, but we understand).
- When walking with someone, you always lead; if they desire to walk alongside you, they better quicken their pace.
- You place dinner in the oven without preheating it.
- At amusement parks, you dash from ride to ride, fearing missing out due to slow walking. Long lines? Not a chance.
- You disregard ironing because it takes too much time.
- When your partner forgets their wallet, and you must turn around to retrieve it, divorce crosses your mind.
- When texting, if the typing indicator appears too long, you feel compelled to send a “????” message.
- Your child didn’t learn to tie their shoes until third grade because you kept saying, “Ugh, let me do it.”
- If you’re on hold longer than a minute, you simply hang up; they can call you back.
- You frequently burn your mouth waiting for your coffee to cool before sipping.
- You cannot comprehend the concept of leisurely walks.
- You refuse to purchase sandals that buckle or any shoes requiring effort to wear. Your running shoes are laced just loosely enough to slip on—often at the risk of injury.
- You didn’t even finish reading this list.
