“你认为每个人都应该知道并遵守的‘不成文规则’是什么?”

“你认为每个人都应该知道并遵守的‘不成文规则’是什么?”

There are rules, stupid rules, and rules that nobody argues about. Like, the one where you don’t answer out loud if someone whispers to you. Call it common sense, human behavior at its best, or an unwritten rule, that doesn’t change it—you just whisper if someone whispers at you.

有些规则，愚蠢的规则，还有没人会争论的规则。比如，如果有人对你耳语，你也不会大声回答。无论是常识、人类行为的最佳表现，还是不成文的规则，都不会改变它——如果有人对你小声说话，你只要小声说。

So what are these unspoken rules that never get written down and are considered logical arguments or actions? Are they that different when it comes to various people?

那么，这些从未写下来，却被认为是逻辑论证或行为的潜规则是什么呢?当涉及到不同的人的时候，它们有那么不同吗?

A person on r/AskReddit dared to find out as they posted the seemingly simple, yet very illuminating question “What is one 'unwritten rule' you think everyone should know and follow?” 44.7k upvotes and 18.3k comments later, we’ve got some of the most interesting replies. They show some rules worth respecting don’t need to be carved into stone and can perfectly live in the part of the brain where “it’s just like this” is enough to explain why.

Never make fun of someone else's laugh — be it how they sound or how they look. Laughing is the most natural expression of joy and happiness, and for someone to feel self-conscious about that because of other people's comments is so brutal.

永远不要取笑别人的笑——无论是他们的声音还是他们的外表。笑是最自然的表达快乐和幸福的方式，对于一些人来说，因为别人的评论而感到难为情是很残酷的。

You can be wrong. It isn't a bad thing, either. And when you are wrong, acknowledge it, and learn from it, you don't need to dig down in your beliefs to try and comfort yourself because you can't handle not being right all the time.

你可能会错。这也不是一件坏事。当你犯错的时候，承认它，并从中吸取教训，你不需要深挖你的信念来尝试安慰自己，因为你不能总是接受错误。
