Not much, IMO. Basically just a slap on the wrist.

People that don't observe the 90 degree rule when crossing in front of my car.

The shortest distance between two points for you might be a straight line, but have some situational awareness.

what happens on eBay if someone wins a bid and never follows through on their payment? would that be the same as what you're saying shoeshine, but rather than Buy It Now it's in a bid
pretty much. they get "mark" on their account. :roll:

Enormous pet peeve of mine, I think I've commented about it ITT before. People just lollygagging along.

The worst are the ones who walk in the middle of the lane in parallel to traffic.

In my experience it's almost always a parking lot situation. If you get to a point as a pedestrian where you have to cross the vehicle traffic, do so at a right angle to said traffic so as to minimize the delay to said vehicular traffic.

When I used to work on City Avenue outside of Philly, people there did this ALL the time. They were 100% doing it on purpose too, usually had just gotten off the bus.

Is this the political thread? Both extremes suck. Extremes, by definition, suck. Spring? Awesome. Fall? A bit depressing but still awesome.

Summers in upstate NY were great. It could get hot but generally it was pristinely 80 and sunny

I don’t like the winter, I legit get affected by Seasonal Affective Disorder, but I understand it’s need because I can’t appreciate warmth without understanding cold

Just remember, the colder the winter, the less bugs the following season.

Spring sucks because allergies. Fall only sucks because it means winter is right around the corner.

I've always preferred the Fall compared to the Spring.
In the fall in a non-pandemic year, you have playoff baseball, college and pro football, and the start of hockey. You also have more holidays with Labor Day, Halloween, and Thanksgiving.

Spring is close sports wise, but outside of March Madness, I am not a big college basketball fan and the Pirates suckitude doesn't make me excited for baseball, so really the only thing to follow is the Pens. And the only holidays are Easter and Memorial Day.

Its name implies the only issue with fall, and that is raking leaves. September thru beginning of December I spend at least 40-50 hours raking leaves on the weekend. Other than that, it's a clear winner
