My brother, John used to be very judgemental.
I don’t like to admit it often, but I am quite a grumpy person. My boss is very dishonest and will often be unethical in his decisions. I met a man last week who was the most sleazy person I have ever come across. My ex girlfriend was a very jealous person. My sister was very selfish when we were kids. I have a friend who is so clumsy, I have to serve her coffee in a plastic cup. My teenage daughter is still very childish.
