Good bitch.
Those people would be very happy on the subway trains in Japan. They have crowd crammers there. Some of them even use sticks.
Well… get out of the way and we wouldn’t have any problems, now would we?!
What I always did was stand right in front of the door before it opened…blocking them from getting on…they don’t expect or like it.
^^ I do this as well.
Funny how people waiting for the elevator expect it to be empty when it arrives and people in the elevator never expect anyone to be waiting.
A demonstration of the self absorbed society in which we live?
I think the onus is on the people waiting to not block the way of the people exiting. They more likely have room to be waiting a few steps back in the corridor while the folks in the elevator don’t have a lot of space to work with – especially if they are crammed in with a full load of people.
Elevators suck. People should just take the stairs. I hate people who take the elevator for 2 flight of stairs….like wtf…retard :S
People don’t always show their disabilities. For example, I had surgery on my hip. While I looked normal walking, it was very painful to do any stairs. So, yes, I would take the elevator one floor. And would I ever get the stink-eye from other passengers! Should I have worn a sign or what?
Oh relax piggy, obviously I didn’t mean disabled or elderly.
My name is ‘Spiggy’ not ‘Piggy’, baby doll. I am neither old or fat. My hip surgery was a result of an accident while channelling the spirit of my old pal, Chris Farley. He dared me to do the Curly Shuffle on the ceiling. Silly me for even trying.
Has anyone ever heard of slingback Snoot boots? With four inch heels? If any of you have, would you let me know where I might rent a pair? Next week’s séance is with John Wayne, some old movie dude who liked guns. The boots are for him.
