Not just Japanese by ucblockhead (2.00 / 0) #7 Thu Apr 24, 2008 at 11:52:10 AM EST
Can be Brits or Kansans.  Yesterday, it was two fucking LA Frat-boy looking types.  Unfortunately, the guy in front of me was too wimping to say "excuse me", so I was forced to glare from higher up while riding the damn thing down.


One of these days I'm going to right a rant about tourists entitled "move your fat ass!"

I'd actually never seen passing on escalators by ObviousTroll (2.00 / 0) #8 Thu Apr 24, 2008 at 01:51:47 PM EST
till I moved to DC in the 1980s. I got used to it, though, and when I moved away I tended to piss a lot of people off by expecting them to get out of the way. I can't remember when it became widespread for people to pass on escalators.

Has anybody seen my clue? I know I had it when I came in here.

Depends on where by ucblockhead (2.00 / 0) #9 Thu Apr 24, 2008 at 01:58:58 PM EST
I don't really expect it in a mall.  But in a public transit system, where the bulk of the people are trying to get from point A to point B in a hurry it is important.  Some of us are not hanging out with our friends chatting.  We are, instead, trying to get home, where we can hang out with the people we love.
