2A - Bug List


  1. When my boss changes daily procedure before we even have time to adjust to the previous way.
    • WHY: Because he is trying to find a more efficient way of getting the job done.
  2. Bad drivers, riding my ass
    • WHY: Because of the amount of time, technology, and people that go into making a new game, the profits from the game need to be able to justify the efforts put into the game.
  3. People turning left at a stop sign who block the view of someone turning right at that same stop sign.
    • WHY: Because the people turning left are trying to see around the person turning right.
  4. People who use the middle turning lane as if it was a median.
    • WHY: because there is heavy traffic and they don't want to wait until it is clear in both directions, if it ever is, to turn.
  5. When playing Sirius XM in my car, the steering wheel button changes the station to the next consecutive channel rather than to my next preset channel like it does for the FM radio.
    • WHY: Possibly because the steering wheel button is set up different for each source.
  6. When my sunglasses get all scratched.
    • WHY: because I put them in my purse without any protection for the lenses. 
  7. When my hair gets caught on my sunglasses when I put them on my head.
    • WHY: because of the way that the nose piece is shaped, it catches the hair and gets tangled.
  8. I can never fit anything into my jean pockets; I am floored when they are big enough for me to fit my fist into.
    • WHY: Because women's jeans are more form fitting than men's which leaves less room for bigger pockets.
  9. When the drive thru line at Chick-Fil-A in Mount Dora backs up into the street.
    • WHY: Possibly because people are either too lazy to park and go inside for food and get served quicker, or there is a reason that they can't go inside like if they have a dog with them and can't leave the dog inside the car while they go inside to get food.
  10. The new Coke fountain machines with the hundreds of different drinks, you know the ones, they taste nasty. 
    • WHY: Because all of those drinks use the same tube to dispense the liquid, the drink flavors mix and ends up tasting awful.
  11. That my Twitter timeline is no longer chronological.
    • WHY: Because Twitter is experimenting with algorithms to put tweets that may interest people at the top of their timeline, similar to that of other social media sites.
  12. The new Florida drivers license design is weird.
    • WHY: the state created a more secure design in order to cut down on fake IDs.
  13. When people criticize NASCAR. I don't hate on you for liking football, or baseball, or basketball, or any other sport; don't hate on mine.
    • WHY: Lack of knowledge about the sport today, possibly the people doing the criticizing have only ever heard of the stereotypes that are associated with NASCAR.
  14. When there's no right hand turning lane and people use the left hand turning lane to go around the person who's turning right. That's how accidents happen people, trust me I know.
    • WHY:  Possibly because they are either too impatient or too lazy to slow down and let the person in front of them turn.
  15. When people use the lane ending merge as an opportunity to pass several other cars, which just in-turn slows the whole line of cars down because everyone has to let you into line.
    • WHY: Because people are too impatient to wait for other cars ahead of them to go, and want to take advantage and pass as many cars in front of them as they can. 
  16.  That the closest aquarium to my house is almost an hour and a half drive away; I love aquariums.
    • WHY: Because aquariums need to be in big cities with a lot of tourism to be successful and the closest big city is an hour drive.
  17. That my wiper blades are worn out on my car. 
    • WHY: Because I have to remember to change my wiper blades, and that I have to stop and get wiper blades in order to change them.
  18. That my dogs on occasion get bit by snakes.
    • WHY: because we live in the country and snakes are everywhere. Because the dogs like to chase lizards which hide in the same places as snakes.
  19. That my mom gives me a hard time on the way that I spend my money.
    • WHY: because we have different interests and hobbies and the things that I spend my money on is not something that she would and vice versa. 
  20. When we take our dogs to the vet, we are there for hours.
    • WHY: Because the vet that we go to does not make appointments, they treat first come first serve.
The biggest problem that I had coming up with the list is that a lot of my original bugs were actually answers to the whys of those bugs so I had to think about my bugs differently and change them.

  1. Hi Nicole,

    First, I absolutely love the layout of your blog! It is so clean without being too plain and boring to look at. I also really enjoyed reading your bug list. I could not relate more to the one about your hair getting caught in your sunglasses, it is quite possibly the most annoying thing in the world. I look forward to reading more of your blog!
