Bug List


No specific order

1.      When drivers don’t use their blinker when they are turning or switching lanes.

-          Exists because people don’t know how to drive in Florida.

2.      When someone cuts you in line, anywhere.

-          Exists because people are inconsiderate.

3.      While taking a test, someone clicks their pen or taps on something.

-          Exists because the student might have testing anxiety.

4.      When people are disrespectful, in general.

-          Again exists because some people are inconsiderate and rude.

5.      When someone tries to mess with my hair after I do it up.

-          Exists because my hair is wavy and people always want to touch it.

6.      When you’re on the highway and someone is in the fast line holding everyone up.

-          Again because people don’t know how to drive and follow the rules of the highway.

7.      When someone doesn’t know how to park and makes it impossible to park in the next space over.

-          Exists because some people don’t know how to park and don’t think of others.

8.      When someone chews with their mouth open, especially something crunchy.

-          Exists because someone people don’t like breathing through their nose.

9.      Also when someone breathes really heavy with their mouth open.

-          Also exists because some people don’t like to breathe through their nose.

10.  When you’re are watching a really good movie and someone is talking or pulls out there phone.

-Exists because some people only think of themselves and not others.

11.  When you go to get cereal in the morning to start your day and there’s no milk.

-          Exists because you don’t do your due diligence before you pour your cereal.   

12.  When someone uses the last of the toilet paper and doesn’t replace it.

-          Exists because some family members are just lazy.

13.  When you are out in public and parents have very misbehaved children running around.

-          Exists because some people are either bad parents or just don’t care how their kids act.

14.  When I see people texting and driving, especially when someone is in the car with them.

-          Exists because some people are too impatient to wait till they’re done driving, putting others at risk.

15.  When someone scratches a chalkboard with their finger nails or sound similar.

-          Exists because my ears just don’t like that noise. Half of the time it doesn’t happen on purpose, but it’s still a terrible noise.

16.  When you are at the grocery store and you have less than ten items, so you go to the ten items or less line to find someone checking out with thirty.

-          Exists because some people are in too much of a hurry and don’t like to read signs.

17.  When people interrupt you, because they are too impatient to wait till you are done talking.

-          Kind of answered this one in the bug, but some people are just too impatient to let you finish, especially in an argument.

18.  When someone doesn’t cover their mouth when they cough and sneeze, especially when they are sick.

-          Exists because some people don’t think about it and how it could affect others.

19.  I used to work in retail, so when someone is on their phone while you’re taking care of them and they don’t even say anything.

-          Exists because some customers aren’t very polite.

20.  When you get Chinese food and there soy sauce tastes like water compared to Kikkoman’s you buy at the store.

-          Exists because I think there soy sauce might be a healthier sauce, but that is no fun.



I would have to say I really enjoyed this assignment. It made me think of the little things and the big things, from soy sauce to the highway. I will say at first it wasn’t difficult to come up with the bugs, but about halfway in I started to get stuck. This is where I really had to start thinking outside of the box, so I started to think about my passed job experiences and then all the way to when I go out to eat, just to find some more.

  1. Hello! I seem to have a lot in common with you in terms of bugs. I HATE when people do not cover their mouth when they cough and sneeze; hygiene is so important to me. I think my biggest pet peeve is when people chew with their mouth open, which you also said was one of your bugs. You also said that drivers in the fast lane who hold everyone up irritate you. I can't help but agree. It seems that every time I drive my 4 hours home, I end up stuck behind the slowest of drivers! I also enjoy this assignment, but it was very hard for me to come up with bugs. I usually think that a lot of things bother me, but when I sat down and thought about things that bothered me throughout the day, I had difficulty.

  2. Awesome list, I found myself agreeing with a lot of your bugs. Number 8 of yours is actually my biggest bug ever, I put it on my list too (you can check out my bug list here: http://cassidymckbusiness.blogspot.com/2016/01/my-bug-list.html)! Furthermore, your number 14 especially bugs me also. Almost every time I am behind a slow/ swerving person, as I pass them I notice that they are on their phone. It doesn't only madden me that they are causing traffic, but that they are also putting everyone's life at risk. On another note, I also started off well but then ran into trouble as I got deeper into my list. Yet overall, I loved your list. It was formatted wonderfully, making it easy to read and effective.
