Another thing... I can't really explain why it irritates me so much, but when women way, way, way overreact to being bumped into.
I came around the corner the other day and there was a woman drifting down the hall with her nose buried deep in her cell phone. She almost bumped into me, and when she looked up and saw me, her initial reaction was to flinch dramatically, reeling backwards, arms flailing and face in this freaked out sneer. It would have been a perfectly appropriate reaction if I had maybe jumped out from behind a wall and screamed "I'M GOING TO GRAPE YOU RIGHT IN THE MOUTH" or something, but not for a minor hallway traffic situation largely caused by the fact that she wasn't paying attention to where she was going.
I get that it's just a goofy physical reaction to being startled but idk, it always dampens my mood.
