    I sometimes finish the sentence for them to speed things along. It’s a bad habit of mine and I try not to be rude about it. Hopefully it just comes across as understanding and supportive rather than usurping the conversation.

      everyone hates it, and no, you don’t know what people are about to say all the time.

        I’m usually right about 60% of the time with strangers, though I’m intentionally not finishing the sentence aloud.
        With friends and coworkers it’s usually that we’ve forgotten a common word somehow and just appreciate the other person remembering it for us.
