Here is my pet peeve...and I've been on these boards on and off since well before I became a "local"! It bothered me from the first time I experienced IOA in soft opening in May of '99, and now that I go to Universal/IOA, it bothers me even more! It's petty, it's silly...but hey, it's MY pet peeve!
Oddly enough, I've never seen it mentioned here, I can't believe I would be the only one, but it wouldn't be the first time!!!
Here goes:
From the garage to the parks, there are several moving walkways to move you along faster or save your aching feet, whichever you choose to use them for. Well, I choose them to get my butt into the park faster. I also use them to get my butt home faster. I'm not a slow walker by nature, by the way.
So why can't people that want to stand there, and take twice as long to GET somewhere, stand to the right so that people can pass by??? Why do they get annoyed when you come upon them and say, "excuse me" and zoom on by? I know at the airports, there are signs that say something like "please stand to the right to allow others to pass" - so I know this is something that has been an "issue" in other places.
Now sure, we could just walk on the side and get there at the same time as the people riding, but if we WALK on the moving walkway, well, we get there faster, and with fewer steps!
Allright, be nice...I don't plow people over or anything...but sometimes I buzz to the parks when the kids get out of school, and frankly...we only get a couple of hours some days!
Sorry so long...but pet peeves take time!
Thanks for reading!
