how to be an irritating mrt commuter

while i was at city hall today, i just saw something that irked me.
the train was already so crowded, and the next train would be arriving in a mere 3mins.

still people still like to to squeeze in like packed sardines.
like hello what's 4 more minutes of waiting time instead of being a public nuisance.

these are my observations on how to be an irritating singaporean mrt commuter.
(1) attempt to squeeze into the crowded train when the door is about to close.
(2) when the door closes, you realise that your bag is caught in between the doors.
(3) after much wrestling, you got your bag in but now your right elbow is caught in between the doors
(4) summoning whatever strength you have, you try to salvage your right elbow by resisting the door.
(5) the sensors at the door sense some kind of irritating obstruction and opens up again.
(6) this time instead of the truth hitting on you, you attempt to just squeeze in even more.
(7) the door closes and shaves off a few strands of material off your pants.
well the latter point was a little exaggerated, but it really sucks to see such a sight.

i'm not really done yet.
(8) board the train and stand around at the door area.
(9) when the next station comes and many people are trying to board the train, somehow God-given common sense doesn't work and these people still choose to stand around at the door area, not moving to the centre of the cabin.

i think i can write another entry on bus commuters.
but i shall give my fingers and brains a break. just typing about them makes me angry.

next up, a spoof on enchanted the movie....
