Women who crank themselves as they walk.

 
  Before the PC brigade have a go at me for being a chauvinist, let me say that I have yet to see a man do this. If I ever spot one, I'll amend this.

So, "crank?" you're wondering... for want of a better term, I'm talking about those women who stand in the 5' to 5'5" range and waddle up the escalators from the train and through the ticket barriers all the way to their desk. It's not the waddling - that I can handle - its the arm out the side that makes them look like they're cranking themselves (as you'd crank a car jack) in a straight line. It always feels like no matter how agile you try to be, you can't get past them. Being over six feet, myself, the danger end of this pendulate arm is at about groin level.

On Friday, I nearly clocked a fist in the nuts from a forty-something 5-footer who must have been late for her tea break because she was cranking at warp speed with both arms. Perhaps she was trying to fly.
