People who stop to chat in doorways
I don't understand this one. I hope I'm not doing it.
Is it because it blocks the doorway for other people who need to use it?
CHRIST YES. It means I need to turn sideways and sidle across the metaphysical line between two people having a conversation who obviously have so much outward disdain for my existence that they can't be bothered to move three fucking steps to the side where nobody has to maneuver around them. I fucking hate that shit with a burning passion.
Yes. Someone idly blocking a doorway isn't aware of the space they're occupying and how it may affect others.
People who blare their car stereos and people with excessively loud motorcycles.
As far as motorcycles go, I've heard "loud pipes save lives", in that people will hear the motorcycle and be aware of it when they otherwise would not.
I've heard that too. But if motorcycles actually require that kind of public warning then they probably shouldn't be street legal.
I've biked for decades; any biker stupid enough to believe this will end up dead shortly.
I'm a motorcyclist and that argument is fucking stupid (not you specifically). If you're drowning out nearby conversation just so you feel safe when you ride a motorcycle maybe you shouldn't be riding.
Again this isn't a personal attack on you, I just hate that i get lumped in with the loud pipe mouth breathers when I've ridden 200,000 miles on a quiet motorcycle without getting turned into road pizza.
People who block the whole aisle with their shopping cart.
People who open their car door on the street without looking for traffic.
People who won't get out of the left lane.
Take your pick.
