I lived in LA for a few years and moved to Kansas. One of the most striking differences was that in Kansas people listened, rather than waiting for their turn to talk...
Shit blew my mind!
-
People who text you first to hang out. People who set up small gatherings. It doesn't matter how small or insignificant either of these are, it's too easy for people to isolate these days.
People who find reasons to like new people. There's enough people to organically hate, I don't care if they're a dork or their art sucks.
People with good conversation etiquette.
-
People who treat others like human beings even though they have some institutional power or authority over these people (teachers, government officials, cops etc). Having power and not abusing it
-
Being the opposite of all the things I hate about myself that keep me up at night
Being honest (with fact more than opinion)
Being efficient/caring about people's time.
Being nice(r). I come from a culture where joking around with insults etc is more than normal and def have done it too much myself over the years so can't be too down on people for it but I def notice when other people just don't do this.
-
People who bring their empty glasses up to the bar when ordering.

Ok the same note I respect people who have their plate full and don't have time to hangout, I know it's a bummer it just seems like one too many people have crossed the line and I'm not an asshole just firm boundaries for myself and others.
Maybe I'm projecting my own flaws here, it just seems that I've had enough time to really enjoy myself as opposed to the company of others (distractions from avoiding my own flaws and whatnot) , not that I'm smug so much so I can be attentive and active listener but also know when its time to bounce peacefully without too much disinterest.
-
Earnestness
Willing to acknowledge when wrong
-
If you slap you're crew. It doesn't matter if you're on that ILL jerk step dad steez. I don't care. I pick you up off the ground and set you up right. Just like you was in the pit
-
The ability to laugh at oneself or admit when you're wrong
Giving others a chance and not automatically cool-guying strangers
Maintaining eye contact or at least not avoiding it
I hate when people wait for their turn talk instead of actively listening, as someone mentioned

For when I'm like, "today I'm finally gonna shoot for the moon! Oh wait I forgot to bring..."
People who will lend a tool or wax even though they don't know you.
When somebody's kickflip does that thing where it rotates UP and slaps their feet.
People who can smooth talk their way out of confrontations with security/owners/cops without cringing or flexing.
Skating a beat up deck and still looking good doing it.
-
Ventures……
-
Dealing with conflict with tact and levelheadedness.
Being straight up.
I like when a hug is a person's genuine reaction to seeing you, obviously within reason.
Not being contentious when being advised by your supervisor (currently a hot button topic in my workplace)
Skating, or doing other hobbies, simply for the fun of it. Seeing people beaming doing what they love gets me stoked.
Skating faster.
