– And if you say “I’m passing by” they’d get hella surprised and jump away
– The moment you arrive, you just need to say “I’m going through”
– There are so many people like her who just blocks the exit of the subway escalator. They never think about the people who are getting off behind them
“It happens so often. Do they lose their brain when they start looking at their phones?”
1. Seriously, even on the stairs and in front of the elevator, either look at your phone while walking or move to the corner
2. Why not go to a corner to do that?
3. I saw people acting like that even on escalators for shopping carts. You can’t avoid them at all; I wonder if their brains are just empty
4. That is definitely crazy behavior and a lack of intelligence. If I were alone behind that person, I’d just say “move aside” and walk past, but doing that when both escalators are packed is extremely dangerous because people keep getting off the escalator even the moment I tell them to move. In that situation, there isn’t enough time for me to tell them to move, for them to turn around, and let me pass; I just have to push my way through. But then they just glare at me, acting like they’re annoyed. It’s a problem that could be solved simply by not looking at her phone while getting off the escalator, so why is she making excuses about her being in that place for the first time?
5. This is especially severe with couples and girls. They’re so freaking annoying
6. Freaking eyesore
7. I seriously get pissed off whenever someone abruptly stops in front of me in the streets
8. I’ve seen this a couple of times, and I just slide my hand in slightly and say “move”
9. It’s so dangerous to do this at the end of the escalator. People deserve getting mad
10. It’s not just the subway; it’s the same in shopping malls.
Even when there is someone moving behind them, but as soon as they step onto the ground, they stop right there and think. If I intentionally shout, “I’m going to pass!” they get startled and move out of the way. I got a strong impression that they don’t even consider the fact that there is someone behind them
