After writing my 20 bugs I found it more difficult than I expected. Often things bug me but I do not really think about it much. A lot of the things that bug me are smaller things that I do not have any control over. It was much easier to think of why a bug exist rather than a bug. Some bugs were things other people do so it was hard to know an exact reason why it exist.

  1. Hey Ashton, so your third bug was also one of mine, it actually happened to me this morning. Your list was really concise and to the point, I feel like I thought too deep into my list. You did a good job at explaining why your bugs existed in a logical sense, I personally found this to be the most difficult part.

  2. Hi Ashton, I think that your list is very concise and I find that most of your bugs are things that get on my nerves as well. I liked bug number 13 because that was a big bug of mine and made it to my list. I drive on the highway to work every day and deal with people being slow in the left lane daily.

  3. Hi Ashton, I thought all of ur bugs were very interesting. I found that many of your items on the list were similar to mine including, the line at chipotle, and how crowded the gyms are. I also think that most of the things that bug me are out of my control. Great work overall and i really enjoyed reading your list and reasons.
