What do YOU look at?

I don't know why, but I have not been able to get my mind off this thread. I think because I keep wondering if you walk with your head down. I didn't realize I did until several people told me to stop. It took some practice walking, not looking at the ground, but I got better at it (though sometimes I still think I'm going to fall). I think when I always looked down I probably noticed shoes more and first. (I think I wasn't going to sleep until I said that). :)
No wait! I DO still look at the ground when I walk. I noticed that when I was walking around the path trying to look at hot springs in Yellowstone this summer, if there wasn't a rail to hold onto I would have to come to a stop to look, then walk some more. I can not look around and walk. - But I think, just like faces, I don't see the shoes - just figures walking past.
 
I don’t think I judge, but I become aggravated by -

Large face and neck tattoos
Improper speaking
Someone smoking in my face
Gross teeth

So maybe I judge a little, but I don’t think I really do
 
What they say.
I don't recognize something revealing at the moment of conversation (usually) but then maybe an hour or 2 later something they said will pop back up in my mind. It's usually something worthy of being noted consciously (since the subconscious brought it back up).
After enough time and interaction with the person i can get a pretty good idea on what people are really like through their freudian slips. What they really think. Who they really are.
