No Self-Awareness
I had a boss who had no idea of his body odour problem, and everybody was too tactful to break it to him. Not so a visiting Rev Ian Paisley: "What the blazes is that smell? Is it you?" That sorted it. Stories of people blissfully unaware of their bad smells, bad manners and foghorn voices.

- People who laugh at their own jokes
- And today, I overheard someone say "challenge" in the same way one would normally say "problem", as in, "Well, you see, the challenge is that my 'phone won't register ... "
- People who put their bags on the seat next to them on public transport.
- People who misinterpret QOTW subjects and simply list things that piss them off, and think that being self-referential is clever and makes it funny enough for them to get away with it.

People who laugh at their own jokes
The guy that sits near me at work laughs all the way through his droning, pointless, wandering, no mark anecdotes on an hourly basis.
He told us a ripper today, about a breakfast he had in Dorset once...

No social conscience

It used to be called "selfish".
