I don't know if anyone hates this but I was sitting on the subway the other day and there was a little space between the guy I was next to and myself. So this lady and a guy get on the train and do you know this jerk basically pushed in front on this woman and squeezed his big ass next to me. Than he sat with his legs all spread a total asshat.

Ugh I hate the subway but sorry but your day sounds like fun having some lady's cottage cheese rub against your arm.

It's a tough decision guys have to make nowadays. I open a door for a lady and she rushes by me without a thank you as if opening that door was my job. Later on, I have to give my seat up to that same lady. The question for guys becomes, do I continue to do the gentlemanly thing, not be acknowledged and stand and be tired. Or do I knock her asse down and rest my feetsies. I go back and forth on this one.

That's weird. When I do that, the women usually say "thanks." Sometimes they don't, but I don't sweat it. I don't do it for the thanks. I do it because that's the way my girlfriend trained me.

Maybe it's the way you do it? Maybe you're holding the door in a passive-aggressive way, like you resent doing it. The women detect this, so they don't acknowledge you. I don't know what you're doing wrong. I guess I'd have to see it happen.

We should have a training session.

Yes, must learn to be butlers.

I don't know if you work in the city but if you do why not take the NJ trains those are significantly better and more comfortable. I have a station like two blocks from my house so whenever I have to go into the city I just take that and the rides is so much easier and less hassle.

The only thing that really pisses me off is when the subway is pulling in just as you're walking down the steps and the a-hole walking in front of you refuses to move any faster and you inevitably miss the train.

Happens to me once a week

o man, those airplane seats in coach are a killer... before i go overseas again i'm gonna make sure i build up enough miles for an upgrade... God help you if you're stuck in the back row by the bathrooms.

bitty, i work in the flatiron district, but i commute from staten island, so it's either i take the train to the ferry to the subway, or i pay the $5 to sit on the express bus & konk out for an hour or so until i get to work... luckily these types of episodes only happen to me about once every other month or so... i'm usually the inconsiderate a-hole that falls asleep on the bus sprawled out on 2 seats so no one even thinks about sitting next to me. lol.

Here's something worse than not getting a thank you for holding a door. Guys and girls and aliens alike. When you are walking in a large group or something, go up to a door entrance, you hold the door, and everyone just walks through like robots, not even aknowledging your presence (Not that I demand it) and don't even bother taking the door. They just walk through like it was God himself holding the door (And they don't even thank him, even though it wasn't him.)

It's not that chicks are freaking stupid. It's not that guys are freaking stupid, it's that all people in general are freaking stupid, and generally speaking, nobody chooses to take an initiative. I'd like to know why.
