What is one of your nonsensical pet peeves about strangers? In other words, what do strangers do that bugs you?

It makes no sense, but I hate when I see people jog in place at a stop light.

rob said...

ARE the folks who hug the poles in the metro...

walk with their feet pointed outward instead of straight ahead.

Walking slowly down the middle of the sidewalk or Metro escalator so others can't pass.

Rambling on and on in meaningless conversation in the stands at my kids' baseball games. This would be sensical if I were talking about the loud, obnoxious ones, but these bored housewives of rural ATL annoy me just as much with their reasonably volumed chatting.

Slow walkers in Metro stations during rush hour get my goat on an almost-daily basis.

agree with hugging the poles on metro (or simply stopping in the entrance when it's really crowded) and walking too slowly but I think most of all people who deliberately block the box at intersections and/or run red lights

Based on the past two days' questions I realize I have a lot of pent up frustration!

The people who lean on the Metro poles are THE WORST. But it seems that many of us share this pet peeve, so it must not be nonsensical.

I have a pet peeve about people who only post on social media if they are bragging or complaining. Whining about your noisy neighbor is not worthy of a status update!
