You look like a tool standing in the middle of the floor with your iphone held high trying to get audio/video. I think it's just compounded be the fact that EVERYONE does it now, so when you watch a band live performance half the people in the crowd are standing their like drones with their phones up in the air. Just dumb.
Related IPP...when I go to youtube to find a professionally recorded official concert video and have to weed through 100 sh*tty I-Phone videos to find what Im looking for.

Or to work. I used to work in a factory in Latrobe and a handful of the women would walk to work in pajamas.

Are you talking about the express lanes or the ones with the posted 5mph speed limit?

Having to go to family functions and force conversation with people I barely ever see. Maybe I'm just weird but it's the most awkward anxiety filled thing for me. I hate it.

I am still waiting to be- or see someone else be- pulled over for blasting through at a wild and crazy 15 mph.

My dad is a turnpike worker, they rage about people speeding through there. 10MPH whatever but people routinely go 40+ through them.

You do from time to time see workers walking across those lanes, also places like Allegheny Valley it's a mess of vehicles crossing over, never know what you'll get on the other side.

5 does seem pretty low though.

Would you rather stop and dig for change or take a ticket.

There should only be two outer lanes for toll takers and the middle should all be converted to Express Ez-Pass.

My irrational peeve about it is when there are 5 lanes- 2 EZ pass and 3 cash only- with nobody in the cash lanes and the EZ pass backed up. They have the capability to make a lane both cash and EZ pass.... do it!
