since it is winter, this pet peeve is all the more prevalent. I HATE HATE HATE it when you run and jump to slide, be it on ice with shoes, a wood floor with socks, or just a wet surface, and instead of the desired effect of a long smooth ride, your foot just catches and you are forced to run it out awkwardly and with a deflated ego. There is so much ice that looks so prime for sliding, and being a boarder i enjoy sliding so i fall into this trap regularly. occasionally you will hit a slippery patch after trying to slide and maybe jerk around a little, making your back or neck sore the next day. so annoying. i'd rather get hit by a bus.
