The Annoying List

Ripped a few off 8 Days (Issue No. 986):

1. Cartoons that make us feel. Like the annoyingly good Pixar hit, UP, which recently stopped its run in Singapore. Instead of fun eye candy, we ended up trying to hold back tears, reassessing plans for their twilight years, and pondering the meaning of life.
2. SMS-ing in cinemas. We know it is on vibrate mode, but thanks to the rise of the iPhone, handphone screens these days are beacons of big bright lights. And that beam from your Blackberry (oops) in a pitch dark hall is as loud as your 'Nobody' ringtone.
3. Decisive friends who pretend to be indecisive. They ask you to choose the restaurant, then reject all your suggestions. If you want control, don't try to look accommodating.
   
4. The queues for the bathrooms at the Butter Factory. Too many weekends have been marred by our having to wait in line for the four-cubicle ladies toilet. Even the guys' queue snakes outside the bathroom, which is almost unheard of. When we plead with Butter Factory to construct more toilets, they tell us they are not in charge of the bathrooms in One Fullerton and so their hands are tied. Guess we'll have to stop ordering drinks.
5. Salesgirls. Those that shadow you (we will call you over if we need help) then rearrange the stuff you have touched the minute you walk away (sorry, should we wear gloves next time?)
   
6. People who stop suddenly mid-stride to answer their mobile and block everyone behind them. Hello, it's called a mobile phone. So get mobile.
