Me: I know, isn't interrupting so ann-Kanye: Yo, IsaacYorkHawk, I'm really happy for you, Imma let you finish, but my interruption of Taylor Swift at the VMAs was the best interruption of all time. The best interruption of ALL TIME!

I think when two people are talking it is rude for someone else to interrupt. Why not wait a couple of minutes for a point of pause or end of conversation to interject your thought. To use the excuse "I said excuse me" to interupt a conversation to say something that wasn't important or relevent is even more rude. It is an emergency, Just raise your hand and say, "I am sorry for interrupting, but this is an emergency" then speak. We all need to improve our professionalism.

Sometimes it takes too long to get out all the facts and then the associating facts, and then the run on sentences, people have so much patience and then ooops, I am sorry, but I think I'am interupting.

My biggest frustration is that I can't do it on this site.

Annoying.

I been bad about this.

I think we are all guilty of that one every now and then...

This is just plain bad manners.
Mr Evangel 10/28/2005
This is apart of the bad listener section. If your a good listener you don't have to worry about interrupting because your too busy listening.

Whether "interrupting" is rude or not...depends on the context of the interruption. If someone is talkin' BS...or too loud...or too long...or there are other people around that might have something to contribute to the conversation...or the person talking ISN"T the speaker at an event...or the topic is inappropriate...or all of the above and they have ignored every clue others have tried to get across WITHOUT interrupting...THAT THEY SHOULD SHUT UP...ABSOLUTELY NOT. If you have done your best to let the "talker" or caller on your phone...especially your cell phone...know that although you wanted to acknowledge their call...that if it isn't an emergency...this isn't a good time...you're on the other line...YOU"VE HEARD THIS STORY A MILLION TIMES...you're in the shower...you're trying to make it to an appointment...they woke you up...they have the wrong number!!!! ABSOLUTELY NOT! If they are KNOWN for monopolizing the conversation...and you are the hostess or just have compassion for your other guest...or friends...or even total strangers who just wanted to tell them that their lights were on in the car...or they had toilet paper on the back of their pants...or that they were standing in the way. ABSOLUTELY NOT! Now, if they are making a comment on a message board where no one has typed a comment in a few years, or you are just dyin' to put your two cents in...or you just want to have a conversation...not a lecture. Speak right up. Unless they are self centered and obnoxious...they will welcome your input. In closing...if you are just rude...and your the one interrupting so YOU can monopolize the conversation. Shut UP! Your soooo Rude! Thanks...I feel better now. Hope you happen to read this. speechless in the shower

Yes, this is very rude. Let the guy finish his story, for goodness sake.
Mr.Political 01/30/2005
This is a tremendous pet peeve of mine. The lack of courtesy and respect one must have to do something like this is incomprehensible. When I'm interrupted, or the person who's talking to me is interrupted, I'll often give a lecture on manners. Soceity can not possibly function if its members lack anytype of manners.
Badunsgirl 12/07/2004
everytime someone does this I just want to give them a hard smack in the face!! uggh! it drives me crazy!
ANSGARD 06/08/2004
people that interrupt me ina conversation make me think they are arrogant...i hate it
nickkicksass 05/01/2004
Not much pisses me off more than someone who interrupts me! AHHHHHHH it enrages me! I try my best not to do it because I hate it SO MUCH
Carla106 04/13/2004
its very annoying. its okay to interrupt every once in awhile but, there are some people who constantly interrupt no matter what the subject. that is just rude and obnoxious.
Daryl 07/16/2003
Very rude, but I have found myself doing this in the midst of some heated arguement,so I can understand.
KoRnChild70 06/05/2003
great...so im sitting there talking to this chick, and then her dam* friend walks up and begins to talk to her. you know how women are, at this point our conversation ends and their's begins and doesnt end until i freak out and run. now, im talking to my friend and this other kid comes up every time to bitc* about his problems and guess what as*hole? NOBODY CARES ABOUT YOU OR YOUR SHI*TY PROBLEMS. DO YOU GET IT? SHUT OFF AND WAIT UNTIL WE ACCEPT YOU IN THE CONVERSATION. ONCE IT ENDS, YOU CAN BEGIN ANOTHER ONE.
Redoedo 05/24/2003
If I listen to what you have to say without interrupting, you should give me the same courtesy.
RebelYell1861 05/15/2003
I hate this worse than almost anything when I'm trying make a point and some jackass butts right in. Some people need to be more sensible.
The_Decockster 03/10/2003
Another sign of complete selfishness
Molfan 02/03/2003
Rude, it is rude to always interupt someone when they are talking. It is like saying "I am more important,and i do not want to hear what you say" they rarely apologize for interrupting, they just seem to think they are entitled to talk whenever they want. I think one of the only times it is okay to interrupt is when you are dealing with another annoying habit on this site " monopolizing the conversation" If they happen to be one of those blowhards who never shut up, sometimes you have no choice but to interrupt them . otherwise Interrupting is rude.

Awful, rude, obnoxious habit. It's common courtesy to wait until someone is finished before you speak.
Teaseress 11/19/2002
My family and my bloke seem to have a habit of doing this, and it makes me seethe! When they finally pick up on the fact that I am trying to say soething and that they've been cutting into my sentence, tehy then do it on purpose playfully and look at me and there's me with a certain expression on my face and we both start laughing. But if anyone else would do it, I'd most probably just shut up and let them get on with it.
addicted 10/25/2002
eh-eh!! is so rude. shows alot about a person's character: self centered, inconsiderate, and insulting
Snoopy 08/26/2002
I hate it when eople interrupt me when I'm talking. I think it's so rude and inconsiderate.
reeny 06/23/2002
I know I hate being interrupted when I am trying to talk to someone. If it isn't something urgent then keep the interruptions to a minimum.
Janey_Lane 06/08/2002
Now this is something (unless it's coming from me) that I truly despise. A friend of mine, wether it is in person or over the phone, ALWAYS interrupts me. This is incredebly annoying since it's often puts you off track and ticks you off during the remaining part of the conversation. In some situations it's not as annoying, like when you're just talking about nothing, but when it's about something you care about and someone just straight up interrupts you, it really ticks me off.
CastleBee 06/07/2002
I guess this would be the same as trying to talk to someone who, if you hesitate for one second in your stream of thought, jumps in and tries to finish your sentence. Arrrrgh! And after you’ve had several conversations like this you just know it’s coming - it’s just a matter of time. That idea alone can make you nervous to the point of hesitating more and more and therefore giving them more and more opportunities to interrupt. Annoying in the extreme!
