Bug List

1. Old people may drive slower than the speed limit because they are more cautious and wise than younger drivers.

2. Waiting in line for food everyday is annoying but it keeps a lot of people from causing a mess and it controls the pace.

3. When people don't use their blinker signal when making a turn, but they may just not remember due to drivings busy demands.

4. A cold toilet seat, but that must be due to convection.

5. Talking on the phone and you just want to hang up but the other person keeps rambling on and on and on, but they could just be excited to talk to you.

6. Having to leave a warm bed after a night's sleep to go pee when you know you should have gone the night before but your bed was to comfy. More self discipline can help fix this problem.

7. Doing busy work for a class that the information does not even pertain to. But maybe the professor wanted to enlighten one even more.

8. Using crutches up and down stairs and you just hold up everyone behind you trying to get up or down, but that is due to the stairs not being wide enough.

9. UF campus wide is 20 mph, but that helps save student lives from reckless student drivers

10. When your phone is on 1% and there's no way to get to a charger so you just take the loss and observe your surroundings and you become more self aware.

11. When all you want to eat is breakfast but it is dinner time and no one wants breakfast for dinner but you, so you go to a diner to be satisfying to all because everyone's opinion should be heard.

12. It is raining and you think your going to melt but scientifically you know you're just going to get wet and have to deal with it.

13. Walking into class wet, bring a change of cloths because cotton absorbs liquids and you become wet when it rains.

14. When your phone blinds you in the morning the first time you look at it as the alarm is blasting to wake you up from your cozy bed that you do not want to leave. The bright light is harsh on the eyes receptors after hibernating for a few hours.

15. When people chomp their food and eat with an open mouth, clearly someone never has learned proper and polite manners.

16. People pulling a fire alarm for amusement is very dangerous and causes a ruckus for those having to evacuate,

17. When my car gets dirty, probably from people tracking in mud and dirt from their shoes.

18. When my socks don't match but I am to lazy to change them so you suffer the consequence and move on with your life.

19. When your socks match but your shoes are scuffed after just purchasing them, but soon to realize shoes are meant to be worn and that they don't stay clean for long.

20. Standardize testing used to compare students abilities of what they have learned when there are other means of testing one's knowledge.


Reflection

I found this assignment to be confusing in the sense that one isn't accustomed to this type of thinking, and think about what bugs one and the causes to it. I enjoyed thinking about what bothers me, because I can reflect and realize how many things really bother myself. Ive learned through this assignment to be more accepting because we do not know the cause to people actions many times, and jumping to conclusions and making excuses will only hold you back.

  1. Hey, Michael. I enjoyed reading your Bug List. You can read mine here http://bpace9583.blogspot.com/2016/01/bug-list.html.
    I see you included a lot of more moral or personal issues in your bug list, perhaps not necessarily things that could be a product or service or something 'fixable' in the conventional sense, but more overarching societal or cultural or even just practical issues most people can relate to. I hope you found the assignment thought-provoking, as I did.

  2. A lot of what you put on your bug list are things that bug me too I especially enjoyed the one about getting out of a warm bed first thing in the morning. That has been especially hard lately with it being so cold outside. I also put standardized testing on my list I think it is such a waste of time and is not a good way to judge what a child knows. Also the breakfast for dinner one was great, I love breakfast for dinner but most people don't. Here is a link to my blog post. http://courtneydscott.blogspot.com/2016/01/20-things-that-bug-me.html
