@lchiu7:

 

3. People in enclosed places (like a crowded bus) who insist on wearing their back packs, swiveling their bodies and inadvertently hitting other passengers.  Take them off when you get into a crowded bus

Replacing the battery on a Samsung Galaxy S6

 

(I did manage it though, and I now consider myself fully qualified to perform brain surgery.)





Sometimes I use big words I don't always fully understand in an effort to make myself sound more photosynthesis.

People who don't wash for several days (judging by the rancid smell) or use deodorant and then go to a crowded cinema. Yuck.

People clustering around lift doors as it arrives. FFS people, leave some room so the people inside can get off. You're not going to miss it!

 

Also applies to bus and train doors.

But what if they won't be the first to queue up to bio security officer? 

 

bio security officer is an annoyance itself.

 

what is the point to ask questions if they gonna scan luggage anyway?

Discovering songs I've listened to for years are not the only version of those songs, and listening to slightly but noticeably different versions on Spotify.  It unsettles my ears...

People selling broken electronics on TradeMe for silly money when they should be taking them to e-waste recyclers.

Something small that bothers me is web designers that rely on things like mouseover to get things to appear that you have to click on. Which dont appear with you touch the screen, but since web designers are all mac users think that touch events only ever happen on the iphone/ipad version of the site so dont allow for them on the desktop one. So you touch the heading that is supposed to open up a menu if they bothered to get touch events but since they dont, it navigates to the page that you are on and doesnt show the options that you need to choose from.
