That enrages me too, I'm afraid. If they know enough to be aware it's offensive, why not just walk behind me or say excuse me in the first place?


I'm fed up with the idea that saying sorry absolves you of responsibility and makes it as though the thing never happened.

And blokes who sit with their legs wide apart, trying to tell the world that their meat 'n' two veg are so impressively large that they can't close their legs unlike lesser, more poorly-endowed weaklings. Tossers.

"And blokes who sit with their legs wide apart"


I know people regularly cite this as "a thing", but as someone who spends 20 hours a week on trains I almost never ever see it. It seems to have become a real thing just through repetition

On a similar subject, anyone who takes up more than their fare share of the double seat on a train or bus! It's not usually down to their size, since I've sat next to plenty of generously proportioned people who seem to fit in just fine, but also plenty of very slight people who seem to spread themselves out to take up as much space as possible. It's to do with attitude and slouching (spent half an hour on half a seat on the bus this morning, very uncomfortable, but I've got a knee problem at the moment so need to sit rather than stand).

people jabbering away on mobile phones in the quiet carriage


At Salisbury on Saturday 2 different tables started up and let them drone on for ages before I finally had enough and went over to each one and pointed out the signs


the usual frown + "someone has just told me off for ,,, blah blah" - but one stopped and the other left the carriage to continue his chat (for 50 minutes!)


of course, it being 2014 I knew they would be straight on twitter to bitch about me - sure enough a quicj search for "phone train" found me the moans - so it was sweet seeing their faces when they saw my replies. Both had good grace to fess up a smile and grudging "fair enough" reponse


But yeah anyone who calls me a grumpy old got for telling people off on the carriage can do one as well

I'm on the receiving end of this right now, can't put my arm down due to the guy next door spreading out with a magazine and attempting to amuse his girlfriend. Can't be due to genital size by the look of it.
