2A – Bug List

1. The traffic lights on University Ave/Newberry going west towards I-75 don't line up, so while the light you're at is red, the next light is green, but since the first light is red, nobody can go through the green light. Then when you do get to that second light, it turns red, so the first light being green is pointless because traffic is backed up. Just sync up the lights!!!
1. The bug exists because of poor traffic planning that doesn't compensate for the increased traffic that has developed since the lights were put in and programmed.
2. The RTS app isn't always accurate as to where the bus is, so it makes it hard to accurately plan when I go on campus.
1. The bug exists because the GPS in the buses isn't as accurate as it should be, for whatever reason.
3. Making a left turn out of my apartment complex means I have to cross both lanes of traffic, and during the busy hours in the morning or evening, this is nearly impossible.
1. This bug exists because there isn't any traffic lights, and the road I live on is a two lane road that is the main road through the area I live in.
4. To get to my girlfriend's house, I have to make a left turn through oncoming traffic. The light is red to turn left, so I have to wait for the green left turn light. But, if I go up one intersection, the next one has a blinking yellow or green left turn at all times, which makes it faster but less convenient to go to the next light and make a U-turn to get into her neighborhood.
1. The bug exists because of outdated traffic programming, similar to the other traffic problems I have.
5. The web client I use to run my Dungeons and Dragons games has some features that don't work intuitively and make things just inconvenient enough for me to complain. 
1. This bug exists because the program is trying to run in-browser rather than being it's own application. This makes it easier to access for more people but limits the scope of what it can do.
6. My lungs aren't good enough to work by themselves, so I have to breathe through my inhaler before I work out at the gym. It is annoying to have to carry an extra thing and worry about whether or not I can do certain activities.
1. This bug exists because I have asthma.
7. When I make tea, it comes out too hot, but if I add ice to cool it down quicker, it waters the tea down too much. If I don't heat it up properly, the tea doesn't mix into the water as well.
1. This bug exists because I haven't found the perfect ratio of water/time heating/ice.
8. I drive on the interstate a lot, and people slow down for a car on the side of the road that is well out of the way of the road itself, for no reason.
1. This bug exists because of people wanting to "rubber neck" so I keep looking forward out of spite. 
9. My cat gets really excited every morning around sunrise and runs all over my bed and meows at me, but she has access to her food, water, and litter, and when I get myself out of bed to play with her, she doesn't even care.
1. This bug exists because cats are an enigma that we cannot know the true purpose of. 
10. My room in my apartment is hotter than the other two rooms in the apartment, for some reason. To get my room cooled down, the thermostat has to be set extra low, which makes the rest of the apartment and rooms too chilly.
1. This bug might exist because of bad HVAC infrastructure. 
11. My car's horn doesn't work when I press it in the wheel. If I lock it via the keys, the horn beeps. So clearly, it still works somehow.
1. This bug exists because some of the wiring in my 13 year old vehicle must have gotten disconnected or something.
12. The User Interface of the video game I play with my friends got changed recently to be the same across PC, Xbox, and PS4. This UI looks and works terribly on PC, and is annoying to navigate and ugly to look at.
1. This bug exists because the developers wanted to bring all the platforms closer together in order to manage them easier, rather than developing one UI for console and one for PC. 
13. I can't find a computer chair that is comfortable with my posture. I like to sit up straight but most of the chairs at office stores are made for people who like to slouch, lean back, or both. 
1. This bug exists because most people have bad posture.
14. Despite UF having a lot of students that commute, the parking situation is abysmal. I've heard from professors and administrative staff that their parking situation is bad too. I don't understand how the school hasn't evolved with the growing population in Gainesville.
1. This bug exists because UF didn't want to take the time, space, and money, to make the extra space.
15. My scholarship last fall, which is supposed to pay for cost of attendance, took a month and a half to completely come in, and during that time, I had to pay rent and buy groceries. The state messed up and once I got the money, I didn't get the full amount, and that took another two weeks to sort out.
1. This bug exists possibly because of poor communication between the scholarship fund, the state, and the school. The bureaucracy, I suppose.
16. On the trips between my home and UF, my cat gets really stressed out and poops in her carrying crate.
1. This bug exists because my cat hates car rides, but I don't know why that is. 
17. I am a comic nerd, and I am subscribed to DC/Warner Bros.'s streaming service, DC Universe. The exclusive shows are good, but the app and website are not that well made. Everything takes a while to load or doesn't load at all.
1. This bug exists because I think they were trying to keep the budget as low as possible, and it shows.
18. Netflix autoplays "previews" of their shows or movies when you hover over them. Often these previews either spoil the show/movie or are just random clips with instrumental music played over them. Does anyone actually like this feature?
1. This bug exists because Netflix wants you to become more interested in their content so you keep their service around.
19. The self checkout lines at Walmart are always really long, but the cashier lines are slow because cashiers are slow.
1. This bug exists because people want to be quick and handle things themselves, but it actually makes the self checkout take as long or longer than the cashier checkouts, even though most cashiers at Walmart are pretty slow.
20. The shower in my apartment is either scalding hot or chilly cold. There is no in between. I have to wait in the hot shower, barely touching the water, until it's gotten to a comfortable warm rather than scalding hot. This wastes water and is uncomfortable and inconvenient to me.
1. This bug exists because of poor water heating management in my apartment.

I did find this list difficult, because I don't have a lot to complain about, in general. I am not a pessimistic person. I do not complain about a lot of things. I believe in just going with the flow of whatever life gives you. The only things on this list that are truly bothersome things that I think about a lot are the traffic related ones. They bug me the most because some of them are so preventable or avoidable, but people are often too self-absorbed to realized that if they drove in a safe, predictable way, we'd all get where we wanted to go faster and smoother. Traffic lights should be reprogrammed every few years to adapt to the changes in the area.
