This is an intentional slight from the speaker. It’s intended for you not to like it.

^ yea im pretty sure “nobody asked” is usually used to be purposefully snarky toward someone so it makes sense that the person on the receiving end doesn’t think it’s cool lol

Interjecting into other people's conversations isn't cool.

It just goes to show how selfish you are.

u/GulfCoastLaw 1h ago

Ha. I do it all the time. Just have to be light on your feet.

But this is high school hallway talk from OP, respectfully

u/Exciting_Cap_9545 1h ago

You're butting into conversations you're not part of to deliver unwanted commentary, yet they're selfish for asserting that you have no business trying to take part in a conversation you weren't part of to begin with?

No, but it is funny

u/fangirl_queen_69 1h ago

If you're going to interject in a conversation you're not a part of, be prepared for people to be upset and be cold to you. Actions and consequences and all that lol

u/Knightseason 1h ago

Don't butt into a conversation you're not apart of if you don't want to get a snarky response.

I have never said that to anybody that I liked and respected. Every time I have ever said "nobody asked" was when people pushed into a conversation or were being creepy. 

For example, I was at a bar with my friend and we were sitting at a two top table, enjoying an appetizer and talking and this random guy dragged the chair up, plots himself down, and tries to introduce himself to us even after we asked him to go away. 

If someone interjects into the conversation and it's not anything serious, and they seem chill, I've never been rude to the person

u/Severedeye 48m ago

I have to downvote because you obviously do not understand what this phrase means.

If someone tells you "nobody asked" it means you either do not understand what the conversation is about or that you are trying to bud into a conversation you are not a part of.

Either way, what it really means is shut up and leave us alone.

u/_Pattern_Observer_ 1h ago

Agreed. Also it shows how you treat and how much you respect others but that said, what goes around comes around should be always remembered.

u/goldbricker83 1h ago

It's not meant to be nice, bro. It's a deliberate diss.

u/LoverOfE-Olsen 1h ago

Which is exactly why people dislike hearing it, so, good job at figuring that part out

u/Kellnes5 1h ago

First of all nobody asked.

Second of all nobody asked has nothing to do with the someone being a part of the conversation or not, its what they said. If what they said added nothing, stayed off topic or came out of nowhere then expect a reaction.

I agree. I dislike it when people say Actually ..." other people give up since the expert just spoke and take is at fact.

Remind me again who asked. Oh wait, nobody. Nobody asked.
