So I definitely am the queen of pet peeves. So many things people do or behave like drive me to the point of insanity. Some people call me hypersensitive. I like to say that I have a heightened awareness of the people around me in order to make the world a better and more comfortable place to live in.
But not everyone has such an acute awareness.
Like this morning, for example, when I used the restroom. Now, this particular restroom has several stalls. At least six. All empty. do you see where I am going with this? So I go into one of them, the very last one. why is it that the next person to walk in has to occupy the one right next to me? SERIOUS? its like when I am at the gym and there is a whole entire ROW of empty treadmills. So i pick the one in the dead center. What happens? a person plops their stuff on the machine next to me. Or when on the bus and there are several free seats, and one of them sits next to me. Then you just know you are in for an interesting ride. And it always takes every ounce of self control not to give the invader of my personal bubble a dirty look.
I mean, I know I am extremely attractive person…but COME ON people…gimme some space.

You should be extremely thankful that you are not a guy and have never had to deal with urinals which quite often do not even have even little mini-walls separating them. Troughs at stadiums are the worst.
A stall is nothing!
