Why Goldberg Is So Annoying

These two posts sum it up. Bottom line, the rules were inconvenient so he broke them. Then he gets outraged because someone in authority actually calls him on it.

Unfortunately, in most areas, attractive public spaces require a lot of rules to remain attractive. The frontier is closed, we just can't do our own thing anymore. And there are too many people like the Goldbergs who think that their convenience is more important than maintaining public spaces. So we end up with rules and rules enforcers.
