Cell phones don't bother me too much, except when in a Gondola.....Smoking, I smoke on occasion, but consider myself a respectful smoker.....ie not smoking on a lift or in a line..........so rude.

I could care less what the tops of my skis look like so people on top of my skis are fine just don't slide yours backwards hitting my tips then sliding under mine.

Another thing that bugs me is when an adult with kids doesn't alternate or use some other line etiquette passing it onto the next generation. Or not correcting their kids bad etiquette.

Stay off my skis? Is it because you don't want them scratched? Do you polish the tops of them when you get home? Does it take away from the performance of them? Are you the guy who parks way in the back of the parking lot and crooked across two spots with the 1985 z-28?

Drives me nuts when a group slowly builds up in front of the entrance to the lift line. Or even when its one person. Would you stand in front of a door people were trying to go thru? I guess you might if you like blocking the lift line entrance.:)

no reason for someone to step on your skis. My cell phone annoyance is kept internal, it's not an invasion of my space. someone stepping on my skis is and it's not that I worry about scratches so much, its the unnecessary invasion of personal space.

Yep. But I drive a Jeep. I did have a buddy in high school who had an 87 IROC Z with a 305 and a 5 speed. That car hauled arse. We were convinved it has some engine work done to it before he bought it. Another buddy had the same car, but with a 5.7 and a slushbox.

I'll buy that and I do agree that people should respect other's space and things
