    No, that,s rude.

    No I do not, I do know people that do that do that though, its very rude and condescending.  

    I tend to finish sentences when I'm impatiently waiting for the point to be made...........

    I guess it all depends on whom i'm dealing with "empty barrels make the most noise', some people you really have to jump in and help them get to the point, gets a bit agrevating when you talking with a run on sentence..

    No! and I hate to hear people do it!

    Hate to admit it but I have done that and trying to break myself of that habit I do not do it in trying to be rude though and I also say I am sorry too much got to break that habit too....sigh.......

    Hate to admit it but it has been known if im with a friend or family and were joking around.But if its a serious subject,you bet your life im listening

    Well, yes, we all do it. We finish off the half sentences on akaqa all the time...

    You think we finish them but I don't think this is possible. On the other hand, on akaQA you cannot interrupt others, only yourself.

    I think what val was trying to ask was......I try not too because it drives me up a wall when folks do it to me!!!!

    no. it's rude. Sometimes the guts of what is being conveyed is left last.

    I plead the 5th!!!
    Yes, there are times when I will do this, sometimes from enthusiasm, sometimes because the person is talking so ssssssllllllllooooooowwwwwwllllllllllyyyyyyyy that I am about to burst.  Often when I interrupt, it is because I was interrupted and I want to finish my thought.  I am learning that, if interrupted, no one is listening, so just be quiet.  I gravitate away from those people promptly.
