How dense can you be?

It never ceases to amaze me when you see people try and enter a tube station via the 'exit' barriers. Does the big red 'X' not make it clear enough?

I mean, presumably they've got enough brains to put clothes on in the morning and actually walk to the tube station, so why the mental block at that point?

Same as going through the mile-long wander at Stansted to/from the UK departures bit, every 10 yards it says "Keep Right"

People never do, and you end up walking almost double the distance weaving your way in and out of people!

****S!
 
The tube barrier thing is indeed very annoying, especially when you're trying to waly through the barrier when some clueless idiot walks straight into you because of this. Perhaps some people's brains don't understand the meaning of a red diagonal cross... :thump:
 
what also annoys me is when the large unit of a bird going through the barrier next to you, has her ticket in the wrong hand (the left hand) and come right in from of you to put her ticket in and go through the barrier... rather than swithcing it into the right hand and walking straight through...... its hard to explain, but some of you will know what i mean!

You mean the ones who clearly can't work out which side to put their tickets in (despite there being an indicator on the barrier itself) and therefore walking straight into it, whilst also impeding your progress as they've stuck their ticket into your barrier.

These people are idoits. :p
 
or those people who walk through the barrier (fenchursh st in particular)with people streaming through behind them and stop as soon as they have taken their ticket out to have a look at the departures board

And dont get me started on those ticketless twunts who go through right behind you....

I find these people particularly annoying at Liverpool street. You walk out onto the concourse heading for the tube station bit, when invariably the person in in front of you stops dead to stare at said departures board... :mad:
 
Gets on my nerves when I see fare dodgers on the train.

It's usually the same fare dodging ASBO phuckers who put their feet on the seats or who vandalise the carriages which puts them out of use for the journey home, which results in the commute home being similar to being herded home like cattle.
