To all the nice people of public transportation

I am antisocial, yes, so it is not so surprising if I get pissed off by random people on the streets. I can also understand that these said streets might be crowded sometimes, so it is difficult to not bump into people. Same goes for the public transportation.

What I do not understand is that why do people have to be assholes about it? Maybe, probably... hopefully... not on purpose but the outcome is pretty much the same. I mean, would it be so hard to actually consider the fact that there are more people besides you who use the same darn thing every day and would like to get to places, just as you do, without being tossed aside, being stepped on or something similar?

I know that it is hard to take out your pass and/or your ticket of your pocket before you actually reach the people who would like to check them but could you please try and take them out a bit earlier? It's not like you didn't know that before you can enter the area of the metro, your stuff will be looked at. There is no surprise in it, for at least three years this has been the same. So why are you acting like you forgot about it or didn't know in the first place? And okay, let's say you have to do this every day because you do kind of forget. Why do you have to stop in the middle, blocking the path and not letting anyone pass? And if you are asked kindly to move aside you just stare at the person with your stupid face as if it was your birthright not to let them pass? Common sense, people. Please. It is very annoying.

I think I might write an entire blog entry for the lovely khm ladies out there because they are one very annoying aspect of this all. My favorite so far is when I had to do a full stop without any kind of notification because the pretty girl in front of me decided that her heels cannot actually walk her onto the escalator at a normal speed. She has to stop and then kind of toddle onto it at the speed of... well, almost zero. First of all, why do you have to do this? If it was an elderly person, I would absolutely understand and be tolerant, but why do you have to wear heels if you cannot actually walk in them? Why are you wearing them if you know you cannot get on an escalator in them?

I also have a problem with elderly people being complete asses. If I sit, there is a reason for it. Maybe that my bag is too heavy and I couldn't stand because there just wouldn't be anything to hold onto if I stood up. Also, if there wasn't another free seat, I would give up mine, but since there is, why the staring? And then, when some of them sit down, they don't even bother to say thank you. I met a woman once, I gave up my seat and she stared at me as if I just killed her mother in front of her. What the hell? I almost told her to get up because I will sit back. Of course, there are the nice elderly people, and there are nice people who actually have this special skill called common sense, but writing about them... maybe I will do that someday.
There are also the jackasses who take up more space than it is intended. Like some guys and a lot of ladies who put their bags next to them on the metro which takes up half of the next seat. What the hell? Don't you have a lap to put it there? Everyone else can, but not you? Or the floor, what the hell is wrong with the floor? Next thing you're gonna tell me to get up because you want a seat for your damn bag. Seriously? People, wake up, why be assholes? Another level of this is when your ass needs more than one seat and you are size normal. Why can't you be content with the seats so neatly marked on the metro? Why would it hurt you if you wouldn't block a seat for someone else like a complete jackass?
Our next kind of people for today is the people who are talking to another or on the phone as if they wanted the whole world to hear it. At like 60+ years I can understand it. There is such a medical issue, but younger people? Why do you have to do this? I am not interested in your things but I can't help but listen to a conversation this loud. And then if I start to listen to music next to you with my earphones (mind you, they are even closed earphones (or however you actually say that) so there isn't so much music that you can hear from it) you look at me like I was the one who disturbed you.
To this, the other end of it all, when people listen to music with open earphones and I can hear freaking everything. I am not interested in your taste of music, not even when I actually like the same band, so maybe you should try and buy a new set of closed earphones. I know it is shocking but such things actually exist so... try them.

I think my ranting is over for today, although I might left out some people. If you recognize yourself in any of them, please do something and change your behavior because public transport experiences could be much better with just a little bit of discretion.

To all the nice people out there (especially the guys)

I have been wondering for quite a time now. My incapability to having any kind of a relationship is one thing, my being very picky is yet another but I was wondering why could that be. And then I realized something else besides some other things that I already knew: which, namely is, that I am very dominant and I don't compromise well so I am incompatible with most of mankind. Which is fine I guess, I would have no time for anyone in my life besides me anyway, because of the university and also... stuff. Before even thinking about having someone, I would like to sort out my own life, thank you very much.

These facts tossed aside, however, I have also realized something else: I am heterosexual but most of the time for some time now I have been avoiding guys. Not like I would have anything to do with girls (which would be fine, by the way, to all of you homophobics out there) but for some reason I just usually don't think about guys as... well, men anymore. Why is that? Maybe it's just me getting way too much attention "goodness" but fact is: when a guy doesn't get a girl he just stops being interested in her in every way, even if they were friends before (mostly, though not always, this is the case).

I can understand guys' need to jump on every living being and also the fact that they think they are irresistible and that we, girls, should just give them a chance to prove themselves, but here's a fun fact: we are absolutely capable of choosing for ourselves. Sometimes this decision might not be the good one, but it is still our decision.

I am also aware of this world being different than long ago but I am seriously getting annoyed by the "friendzone" excuse and all the whining that surrounds it. News flash: I have also been "friendzoned" and it sucked. But I also had the courage to go to the guy I liked and tell him: oh hey, I like you, what if we...? And then, rejection came. And guess what: I SURVIVED! And did not complain about friendzone or anything else of the sort.

Friendzone is a nice way of solving a guy's problem, which is namely the rejection from a girl. Instead of moving on (yes, I know that after the hundredth time it is quite annoying), a guy would keep on complaining about "being in the friendzone" instead of actually maybe DOING something about it.

And here I get to the other thing I wanted to say.

Guys... looking at us with puppy dog eyes, making our every whim come true is seriously awesome and nice. But to expect us to fall in love with you because of this is not cool. Just not cool. Let me tell you why: because we don't work like that and also, I, for one, have a very-very high tolerance for people being nice to me. Because I like to help people out as well and it is only natural to me that I have some other nice people in my life who do the same for me. That, in itself, doesn't mean a damn thing for me.

IF you want something for a girl, instead of not saying anything and then being frustrated by her flirting with someone else and whining about stuff in your room or to your friends, you could just go over to her and ask her out, tell her how you feel. The worst thing that can happen is that she rejects you. At least it probably will not destroy some kind of a friendship that you already might have.

Oh, yes, and it will also make you look... well not like a little baby to her but something that has been mostly forgotten (at least by me, cause I get the "I will not tell her about how I feel" types all the time: how men used to ask out women back in the days. You want to be taken seriously? Act like a man.

I think this is where I wanted to go with my little writing because I get the question all the time: do you have a boyfriend? And I keep laughing and just saying no. And then I started wondering why it could be and realized that there are very few people I would actually even consider being worthy to my attention. It sounds egotistic, and maybe it is, but I sure am not looking for a child that I can take care of. If I wanted one I am sure I would manage getting it.

So, guys, I know it is hard since all the girl power going on out there but please... PLEASE. Either act like a MAN (or at least a MALE type being), or don't whine about friendzone, because it is really getting old.

Thank you.
