What do people do while playing DDR that really angers you?

Me? i hate it when u have just finnished having a go on DDR, and then someone else that is much older, stronger and/or better than u goes on it and does songs that u would find hard. Personally, i get reeaally embarrassed when that happens.

A dude did that 2 me a while ago. He did heavy songs, while i only did 2 standard and 1 heavy songs. i waz really embarrassed.......

I got 2 things on my list.

1) Little 3 or 4 year olds who hang onto the handle bars.....WHILE YOU'RE PLAYING! I'm mean for goodness sake, give the player a little space man. How the heck do you play when there's a little 4 year old playing on the bar and it just becomes an eye sore. I mean, it's cute when they're on the mat trying to play, but the handle bar thing is just too much cute at one time.

2)When there's those waits, and it's all "first come,first served", or whatever that crap is, those people who're all like, "Hey I was here before you"...AND THEY CAME LIKE 10 MINUTES AFTER YOU ARRIVED! This happened at the arcade at my mall before, and I was about to go next, and some guy just waltzes on in and inserts his tokens into the machine just as I get up onto the dance pad. I felt like slapping the $#!T out of him...

People assuming that a joint premium machine means that they are entitled to versus me; like, just walking up and joining into my game. And then one dude had the nerve to try and pick songs. It's my money, my game, if you want in you have to ask.

People who mock new players; it's just mean we all sucked when we started. There's always someone better so leave the noobs alone, unless you want someone to challenge you and make you look foolish.

People who only play three songs, over and over and over until you want to shoot the game.

People who don't wait their turn.

Arcade celebrities who come there all the time and think they're the hottest thing around. Like, they own the machine because they can beat all the regulars.

Snooty, close minded players who pathologically refuse to use the ITG/PIU machine ten feet away because it's a DDR "ripoff". Who cares?they're still good games.

To tell the truth, im somewhat tolerant little kids stepping on the pad when/while I'm playing and that kinda stuff. I think it's kinda cute to see the kids mimic and want to learn DDR too.

However,
My pet peeve is people that are watching, that then whisper words under their breath while I'm playing. Things like,
"Stupid American. Get off the pad, my son can do better than you!"
I play at home way more than the arcade because of that type of stuff.

Here's a new one: people who like to mock you when you fail a hard song. Look you bastard, let's see YOU pass Cartoon Heros or Max 300!

(Speaking of CH, I passed it home today with a B!

!)

My common failing poin is usually after the freeze or at the end (like you and your Unlimited), I hate failing it when there's a crowd, but then again I think they're entertained by me getting that far.

You can certainly pass CH if I can do it, vid. You're loads better than I am, from the feeling I get. Just watch out for those stupid gallops.

Yes, they're special WOMG HOLY CRAP CARTOON HEROS gallops. O:

Anywho, that's what I started doing after I saw the Kevbo Legend Road Video when he taps his foot on the MaxX Unlimited freeze, so I do that now to keep time and tell my brain that there's still a long way to go before you can take a break. THankfully I don't get nearly as worn out as I used to when I play Max 300, hurrah stamina! Funny part is I haven't even done that many nines.
