Strollers
More infuriating than trundly suitcases are Strollers. Actually Strollers are very often found in charge of a trundly suitcase. But they do not strictly require one. They can annoy you all by themselves using a twofold strategy. All they have to do is (1) keep to the middle of the road, tunnel or stairway you're trying to use (2) walk v-e-e-e-r-y v-e-e-e-e-r-y sl-o-o-o-o-o-w-ly in front of you.
Please note, I do not complain about old people, or disabled people, or any other people who have a perfectly good reason for walking slowly. These people are usually very considerate of other walkers, and even when I can't pass them, I'm quite happy to hang back and give them time to move as well as they can. Nor do I have a word against anyone whose natural inclination is to dawdle along. No, I'm only bitching about those perfectly fit young people who go slowly AND HOG THE WHOLE &*$%£$@ PAVEMENT. What is their problem? How is it they can't sense the restless mob of frustrated walkers crammed behind them as they saunter along? This is a mystery. I blame the parents.
