Sometimes. I was in Tesco last night, looking in a fridge, had no idea I was in anyone's way and an elderly man said loudly to me "are you just gonna stand there?!" Instead of maybe "excuse me".

When you are actively looking for a product even the 'excuse me' crowd are effectively queue jumping you and showing no necessary patience
