How to (not to) behave on the fucking Metro:
http://www.craigslist.org/about/best/wdc/19598535.html

I concur with all except some exceptions to:

Platform:
1 - sometimes it is crowded, and just because some idiots are scared of the bumpy section of the tile or the idea that a metro might, against all odds and for the first time in recorded history, leap from the rails, mount the platform, and start chopping people down like celery, does not mean I should wait 4' away from the edge of the platform.
Train:
5b - doesn't matter when not crowded, but if you still hold a paper or book in front of you I'll accidentally grab it, throw it to the ground, and twist my heel into the plyable pages

Ya know, I was gonna say (the dots were) for blind people, but had nothing to back it up, so I left it out of my post. But nothing pisses me off more than some shithead standing at the outer edge of the dots (or worse yet, walking along them) when a train is arriving... Partly because the conductor usually rants about it when they open the doors, but mostly because I don't want my trip delayed due to track pizza.
