Poopularity

Daily Annoyances

The small things that ruin an otherwise fine day.

Most poopular Β· Travel

Public votes set the order. #1 is the most pooped.
Middle seat Travel

The only seat with no wall and no aisle, which is why airlines can charge to avoid it.

+1
Airport security queue Travel

Screening capacity is fixed while arrivals are not, so a short delay at the front compounds down the whole line.

0
Boarding group 9 Travel

Boarding order is usually sold or earned rather than assigned, so the group number describes your ticket, not your seat.

0
#4
Delayed flight Travel

Aircraft fly several legs a day, so a delay in the morning travels with the plane rather than being absorbed.

0
#5
Gate changed at the last minute Travel

Gates are assigned to aircraft, not to flights, so a late arrival at one gate moves everything scheduled behind it.

0
#6
Hotel resort fee Travel

A mandatory charge added at the property rather than at booking, which keeps the advertised nightly rate lower.

0
#7
Lost luggage Travel

Most delayed bags miss a connection rather than disappear, which is why they usually arrive on a later flight.

0
#8
Parking across two spaces Travel

One car occupying two spaces removes capacity in the place where capacity is already the constraint.

0
#9
Seat reclined on a short flight Travel

The seat reclines because it was built to, on a pitch that assumes nobody behind is using a laptop.

0
#10
Service charge surprise Travel

A charge added to the bill rather than to the prices, so the menu reads cheaper than the total.

0
#11
Standing up before plane door opens Travel

Standing does not speed up disembarking, since the queue still moves from the front, but it does feel like progress.

0
#12
Traffic circle without indicators Travel

Signalling on exit is what tells waiting drivers they can go, so not doing it stalls everyone behind.
