At it says in the title. (Public transport meaning buses, trains, taxis, et cetera.)

I’ll get the ball rolling.

1. People who just have to sit next to you when there are enough vacant seats available.

2. The miserable attitude of most bus drivers in general and the fact that they don’t always stop for certain people.

3. Kids/sloppy people who leave food and spill shit on the floor.

4. The fact that some people are too impatient to let people (especially the elderly) get off before boarding.

5. People who sniff all the time without bothering to blow their bloody noses (that one applies to so many other situations). I feel like sniffing’s one of those sounds you’re either oblivious or hyper-attuned to and I swing more to the latter category. It’s not a big issue but it does get on my nerves when people think it’s acceptable to hear them snorting what sounds like coke up their noses every five seconds rather than doing the natural thing. (Just blow your damn nose once and for all and get it over with already.)

6. The overly-and-inappropriately talkative ones who try and have long conversations with the driver, all the while holding up the queue (again, that’s just a general irritant that happens everywhere).

7. Random strangers trying to talk to you (it’s rare I’m ever in the mood to talk to strangers and when I’ve got my ’pods in that’s a cue that I’m not looking to have a random conversation with a complete stranger but some people have zero chill).

8. People who bring dogs on buses (barring the obvious exception of guide dogs).

9. People who stink (spray-on costs as little as 50 p.).

10. School kids (nothing more that needs to be said for this one).
