Re: a special kind of [censored]
Ok here are some good ones that haven't been mentioned yet:
1) No one gets out of my way, and I'm not gamblegamble big (6'3ish, 205). If some 100lb 4'6 little girl in high heels and I are on a collision path, they never even think to get out of the way. One day I'm going to walk into one of these girls, and I'm going to laugh when they discover the laws of physics apply to them too.
2) Similarly, if people are walking 3 across and blocking the sidewalk, they will never move aside to let someone else walk on the sidewalk. If it's rainy or snowy or muddy, tough. They just keep blocking the path, forcing you into the mud. I'm going to start walking into these people too.
3) People who have conversations in doorways or on stairs. Huge problem at college, especially at parties and getting out of class. DO NOT BLOCK BOTTLENECKS TO HAVE A CONVERSATION. I now yell at these people and feel much better, and I also have no problem pushing through and spilling drinks. Oh, I spilled your drink? [censored] YOU douchebag get off the stairs.
4) Not holding doors or saying thank you when I go out of my way to hold a door. Or, at a crowded place when I hold a door for someone (and if its crowded it's got to be someone holding a kid or old or something) and then I get stuck holding it for 2 more minutes as everyone walks through and no one says thank you.
I'm sure there's a lot more. I'm not always the most polite or nice person to my friends and family, but I am super incredibly polite to strangers, waitstaff, fast food people, etc. since I know how much this stuff life-tilts me and I would hate to be the cause of that in another.
