What annoys you about people on public transport?
Now, I don't usually travel in the sardine cans of the prole, but when I do venture into these alien environments, there is usually something about the people there that irritates me.
Notably:
- People listening to music on cheap headphones, and subjecting everyone to their poor music taste, due to the fact that the headphones fail to conceal the sound.
- If there are plenty of free double seats, those odd people who decide to sit next to you, even though they could have had a double seat to themselves.
- A group of chav troglodytes who feel the need to share their conversation with all the passengers.
- This is one of my biggest pet hates - people who eat smelly food or bring their stinking food shopping on the bus. I remember one time, it was so hot, and this woman's bought chicken from a supermarket stank through the whole carriage and smelt so putrid.
This is just the common stuff. I don't even want to get in to stuff that is somewhat rarer.
Feel free to add your own pet hates.

People who talk VERY LOUDLY on the phone
Freshies in their Tesco/Primark uniform who stink
Chavs blasting their crap music from the back
Mums with pushchairs

What really ***** me off is when people bring their dogs on the tube that are half poodle and half shiatsu and they call it a poosu when a shiatle is a far better name.
Only recently I accidentally touched an old man in the buttocks *ew*
Talking really loudly.
Playing **** music (and it's always **** music) out aloud.
Putting bags on a seat or sitting on the outer seat so others can't sit there.
Delaying the bus by arguing with the bus driver for what ever reason.
Sneezing and not covering your mouth.

. Also, people who try to nudge your arm off the arm rests in trains and claim the space as their own 
Girls... And I say girls specifically because it seems that when they are on an enclosed bus with their group, they feel to speak at the top of their voices.
People that stand by the doors on the underground, when there is clearly room to stand elsewhere in the carriage, yet they still want to roll their eyes when people are brushing past them to get off the train
There's probably plenty more, but these just happened recently.

When you're getting off a train/bus and the people on the otherside of the doors don't let you off but try and push past you first.
Also when they don't move out of the way, and just stand there idly, either at the other end of the ticket barrier, or at the top/bottom of escalators.
Drives me CRAZY.

Mothers who use their prams as battering rams or can't keep their squealing rat under control 
Easy way to deal with that, get off the train shoulders first.

If I have sunglasses on me I always wear them on the tube, it makes people watching easier. And besides, I never know where to look, and I hate that awkward moment when you make eye contact with the person that's on the seat directly in front of you and you know they were watching you and they know you were watching them and its just awkward. so very awkward.
I hate it when people have massive rucksacks, and BO. Eurggh.
