People who take up too much space

[Agent64]

The woman wearing the rucksack type bag in Waterstone's - bashing people and knocking things over every time she turned round. Also guilty of barging from the front as well as ambushing from the rear.

The gathering of Friends Reunited in the supermarket - five or six of them blithely blockading the aisle with their three large trolleys while they caught up with their chat.

The man claiming his right to a soon-to-be-vacated parking space by parking in the middle of the road so that no-one else could get by.

AIBU?

Guys who sit with their legs stupidly wide apart on the tube. Mate, no one's balls are that big.

YABU for not asking an actual bloody question...

YANBU

What about someone with a huuuuge thick coat sitting across two seats on the bus? Or put their bag on the window seat and sit in the aisle seat? I'm sure they had just bought one ticket.

Two or three women marching along with their buggies, taking up the whole pavement. Yanbu.

The woman with her shopping trolley who seemed to expect Dale Winton to pop out at any time and treated ALDI like her own version of supermarket sweep. FFS woman, the trolley is huge, there are other people, please deal with it!

The people that stand so close behind you in the Sainsburys queue that you can feel their breath on your neck. Makes me want to take a step backwards.

People who stand really close and cough or sneeze on you. Yuck. Or really smell of garlic. Poo!

People who walk 3 abreast on a narrow pavement, then stop suddenly to text.

Especially at the bottom or top of a flight of stairs of escalator.

sparkle am I being unreasonable to get pissed off with people who, IMO, take up too much space

Couples [tourists] who insist on walking down narrow streets holding hands, thereby forcing me off the pavement and into the road. Bastards.

Also - groups of people [language students] walking five abreast across both the pedestrian and cycle lanes. Why?

People that walk along together and will not move when the path isn't wide enough for all three of you to pass and you end up walking in the gutter. Fgs just walk behind one another for a couple of steps, no need to be joined at the flaming hip all the time! Ggrrrrr.

YANBU.

The cluster of about 10 people catching up on Christmas gossip, standing just inside the door of a busy department store this morning.

People who have stupidly big cars and can't park them properly.

Groups of mums and babies in cafes who won't be parted from their massive prams and arrange them all around the table instead, therefore taking up twice as much space as they need to.

People who pull their trolleys sideways up the supermarket aisle.

The gathering of Friends Reunited in the supermarket

I will now think that every time and lol at them

People who stand in the entrance of shops because it's raining, gawping at the rain. Just move! It's rain-you can walk through it believe it or not. And folk can't get in.

I always laugh at men with their legs wide open and I am so tempted to say 'Close your legs you are catching flies!'

People who stare at their phones as the dawdle along.

People who hog the overhead lockers on the plane then spend the whole flight rummaging in them for no reason, then slamming them shut with their stomach in your face.

spanish language students who hang around in groups of twenty all with tiny rucksacks blocking the pavement??

All of the above and add young people who jig about, step backwards and then wave their arms around. They are usually very loud as well. No respect for the space or safety of others.

YANBU OP.

People who stop at the bottom of the escalators.

And the man marching up the stairs in Next, expecting everyone to move for him. You deserved the mouthful you got.

When DH 'helps' in the kitchen he seems to occupy the space of three much-larger men thus rendering the rest of the 'work zone' impassable which then means that him helping with, say, making dinner takes three times longer than it would if I had done it on my own as I can't access the garbage, the compost bin or the sink.

And DDog who has to sleep sprawled at my feet whenever I'm trying to doing anything quickly in the kitchen thus also rendering the kitchen action triangle impassable.

Anyone else feeling a little cranky today?
