Petty revenge :)

So I can’t STAND people who are on their phones when walking.

Yes, SOMETIMES it would be legit ie: looking for directions or the like.

But 99% of the time it’s just people walking and looking at their phone.

So today a woman got off the train with me and kinda pushed me because she was engrossed in her phone. Fine.

So we were both walking up a VERY crowded stairs. She: still engrossed. She not paying any attention. Just walking up the stairs.

She ended up on the left side of the stairs. She walking up on the "down" side.

Still engrossed in her phone.

So I saw that people were trying to get down and I totally crowded her so she couldn't get over. By the time she looked up she had angry people looking at her.

Take THAT stupid cell phone looker while you are walking!

(no one was hurt, I just crowded her).

There is no reason to be on your phone while walking up the stairs. Put your phone down for 10 seconds. Seriously.

I can't stand when people are so attached to their phones that they can't look away for one friggin minute. Give it a rest people - you aren't going to miss anything!

We all do it. When I'm looking for a seat on the LIRR, I frequently take the seat next to the person who has their stuff spread out all over the seat (instead of the overhead rack where it should be).

Ditto. Or I'll smush next to a man spreader to make a point. Let's be real guys, it's not that big. If everyone was just a teensy bit more considerate of other people, everything would be a lot easier.

I did it yesterday to a woman on the express bus who had papers scattered all over the seat next to her while she sat in the other highlighting away. I asked her to please move her desk.

How on earth can someone look at their phone and walk up the stairs at the same time??? I'd fall square on my azz after the first step!

When I see commercial trucks or vans with company names/numbers on them driving recklessly and aggressively, I report the drivers to the businesses. I know a lot of other people who do this.

It's not even revenge. I consider it a public service.

I think about doing this, but never have. Glad to know it's a "thing"
