Some little things I noticed

While driving around the city you get to people-watch alot. I've noticed some things that make me wonder. Like, why do so many people in the city have those rolling suitcases? Where are they going? Why do you need to carry around so much stuff?
Why are there so many people carrying water bottles around like it's their canteen? They have these backpacks on and water holsters like they're backpacking through the outback! This is NYC! There are at least 17 stores on every block that can sell you the water you require to survive. There is no need to get all survival on us.
Why do people continually hail cabs when our lights are off? Have they not figured this out yet? Let's start a public education campaign to teach them the intricacies of LIGHT ON vs LIGHT OFF.
Why do people wait until we are in front of their house before they realize they should get some money ready?
Why do people ask you to put the AC on but then open their window after you do so?
Why do 500 people line up at a hot-dog stand while the one across the street is identical but has only 2 people on line? Would you rather wait on line for 40 minutes than cross a street?

Ahh. I feel so much better. Anyone else have any observations please add comments!

Why do they wait for the light to turn green then try to cross the street? Why do they act like a taxi will not kill them if they get hit?
