I agree. Standing at one edge of a bridge or walkway with your camera, taking a picture of someone at the other edge, thereby stopping anyone minding their own business from walking past without getting in the way is bad manners.
Quite specific that, do you have one particular event in mind? However I feel you'll recover without any long term psychological damage.doogz said:

Absolutely everywhere in Disneyworld. Was there a couple of weeks ago.I'm quite sure I'll recover also. This thread isn't really about serious long term illness anyway, is it?

People who think a camera is some kind of magic exclusion zone, or even worse stand there forever before pressing the button.
It's really just a matter of manners. Walk round, unless it's a huge deal for you.It's not like you're going to run out of film is it?
People who dis-regard health and safety advice as they think they know better.
For example I was on a flight the other day and the guy next to me turned on his phone and started texting / facebooking on our approach to landing. Assuming he knew he got some signal when closer to the ground and he could start to use it.
Now I'm sure that one little phone and bit of mobile data couldn't bring down a 747 by itself, but the instructions are very specific and there for a reason. Even if it is crowd control rather than actual electronic interferance.
Second example, cyclists that don't wear helmets, you won't look so cool when your brains are spread across the front of a bus.

Clearly the 'what the fk are you doing that for - you look like a nob' expression on my face isn't working.

I sat next to someone who proudly bragged that he never turned his phone off. I was wondering what sort of signal he was expecting to get 5 miles above the Black Sea. I do wonder if the pilots get that irritating rhythmic beep you used to get on TVs every time someone does that.For example I was on a flight the other day and the guy next to me turned on his phone and started texting / facebooking on our approach to landing.

The whole flying experience annoys me. Massively impatient people who would be queuing up to get off as soon as the place starts its decent if there wasn't a seatbelt sign. Best thing that pilots do to stop this is coming to a halt so smoothly that nobody notices.

A chap I employ at work who after making a cup of coffee cannot wash the spoon and return it to the drawer, or place the spoon in the dishwasher, but instead leaves the dirty spoon on the draining board!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just rinse the fecker off!
That's not beyond reason. That's just an ignorant fker who expects someone else to clean up his mess.Just rinse the fecker off!
Use his desk as a dustbin.
