Bug List

Things that bug me...

16. When people don't laugh at my jokes

18. Can't catch a fish

19. Cant find matching shoes to go with my outfit

  • Why? Parents don't teach their kids how to shop
20. When my house is dirty

  • Why? I have a crazy schedule


It was pretty hard to come up with all the things that bother me. Not many things bug me, so to find 20 I had to dig deep. Every day is different and new 'bugs' come about that didn't happen the day before. The biggest challenge I had was spreading out the assignment to be a couple of days long.

  2. Great job, your list was pretty funny and well composed. I definitely feel your pain with some of these bugs. Living in the dorms last semester I definitely ran into some of these issues such as my clothes not drying after the first cycle in the machine. I too ran into some issues while creating the list but spreading it out over multiple days definitely helped.

  3. Hi Melanie,
    I’m sure you were able to see what the main purpose of this assignment was… Discover unmet needs! Aka having an entrepreneurial point of view towards unsolved issues! Great post and keep up with the good work!

  4. o Hey Melanie. I agree that Florida driving tests are too easy. I just started driving again, and I was thinking that same thought today. The bugs seemed silly at first but many of them are popular unmet needs. However, I feel like the ideas were very concise, and it took me a while to understand the problems that these bugs create for people.

  5. As soon as I read your first bug, I knew I would love your list. I brought my dog from home up to Gainesville for a couple weeks and she has woken me up every day since at 7 am sharp to get fed and go out. Needless to say, it has been a rough couple weeks for my sleep schedule! Great post, and I agree about having trouble finding things that bug me, but good job!
