This is a question Irrational Hatred

People who say "less" when they mean "fewer" ought to be turned into soup, the soup fed to baboons and the baboons fired into an active volcano. What has you grinding your teeth with rage, and why?

People who stop in the middle of busy thoroughfares
So, sure, having walked through an unfamiliar door/ travelled down an escalator/ arrived at a new part of city you need to stop and get your bearings. This is fine. It's the ones that don't think to step to the side to avoid blocking everyone else that make me want to sneak up behind them and shout GET OUT OF THE FUCKING WAY into their tiny delicate lug'oles.

DISCLAIMER: I am a London-resident tube-user who walks everywhere at speed. Your levels of sympathy may vary.

Totally with you
I am often disorientated. But not so much so that I can't figure out how to put one foot in front of the other and move 5 meters to the side. I retain enough spacial awareness and cognitive capacity to work out where, within my immediate surroundings, there is a gap through which people aren't moving and FUCKING GET IN IT!

Tourists
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

I used to use the very busy Tottenham Court Road station and it would always amaze me at the sheer number of tourists who would get to the top of the moving stairs and then...

Just.

Fucking.

Stand.

There.

Seriously, what the fuck? Can't you see the several thousand people pushing past you? Can't you hear the station guards shout at you? Can't you feel the looks of hatred as people push past your fat ass.

These beautiful tourists get extra points when they actually start fighting and swearing back at people trying to get past, so glad that they post police there nowadays when it's busy...

I carry an air horn in by bag during the summer season for this problem, the violent shiver that runs through their entire body after a forceful parp doesn't necessarily clear the way but it distracts me from the annoyance factor.
