Bug List

1. Not having enough good vegetarian options of different varieties in the USA.

Reason: There aren’t as many vegetarian people in the USA as compared to India.

2. Vegetarian food and non-vegetarian food are cooked using the same utensils in the USA.

Reason: Unlike India, there isn’t a law in the USA that asks the restaurants to have separate parts of the kitchen for vegetarian and non-vegetarian food and the market for vegetarian food isn’t big enough to convince the owners to spend that extra money.

3. Fresh products are mostly placed at the very back in grocery stores.

Reason: Stores generally want to sell the products that are going to expire soon first.

4. People who don’t put the weights back in their place after they are done working out.

Reason: Some of the people are those who have just started working out and don’t know about it, whereas others are just lazy and leave it to be done by the next person.

5. People who go to classes without taking a shower.

Reason: Some people might have woken up late, whereas some just don’t care about it.

6. The fact that all the campus dining places are very far from the lakeside complex.

Reason: The university might not have felt the need to have a campus dining option near the lakeside complex since it has kitchens and is the only on-campus housing place in that area.

7. The bus 28 that goes from lakeside to Walmart doesn’t run on weekends and other holidays.

Reason: It is not a part of the group of buses that run on reduced service and holiday service.

8. The Wi-Fi at the lakeside complex is often weak.

Reason: There are a lot of people using the network at the same time leading to network congestion.

9. People who modify their cars and motorcycles to make it super loud.

Reason: They just like to show off their vehicles.

10. Me not being able to access my Indian Amazon Prime and other video streaming service accounts in the USA and thus having to pay twice for the same service.

Reason: It is because of some geographical copyright laws.

11. People talking to each other and not maintaining silence on level 2 of the Marston library.

Reason: Many students use that as a place to spend their time between lectures rather than for actually studying.

12. Google home speakers can’t be connected to the campus Wi-Fi.

Reason: The method that UF uses to make the Wi-Fi secure and safe to use is not supported by google home.

13. The fact that the programming class required students to code on a text editor rather than an IDE for the exam.

Reason: The text editor is already linked with canvas and lockdown browser, as a result, it is easier to restrict students from opening up other applications during the exam to get help.

14. People who don’t flush toilets.

Reason: Sometimes people forget, or they just find the toilet too unhygienic and leave it to be flushed by the next person.

15. People who share hundreds of stories on Instagram about an event that they are attending.

Reason: They just like sharing their experiences with their friends.

16. People who check-in on Facebook for every venue that they visit.

Reason: Similar to the previous one, those people like to share their experiences with their friends.

17. Different classes at UF require different types of clickers (such as H-ITT IR clicker or Top Hat clicker).

Reason: The professors might prefer a specific clicker over the others.

18. People who have already seen a movie talking about what happens next in the cinema and ruining the experience for other people.

Reason: They just don’t care about other people around them.

19. When flights get delayed, especially for long flights.

Reason: There are several reasons for it such as climate or technical issues.

20. People who use the express counter in grocery stores even if they have more than the allowed number of items.

Reason: It is faster than other counters.



Reflection: It was easy to come up with the first few bugs since they are the ones that I face frequently. But, after that, it was difficult to come up with more bugs. This is because you know that a particular thing bugs you but you realize it only when you see it and then often forget about it.
