Okay I don't know if I'm serious with this. Quotes are another thing I don't pay enough attention to to have a favorite. But I think this quote at people a lot.


Skeeviest subway ride ever this morning. I was sitting in a window seat and as the subway filled up a guy sat next to me, nothing new there. But as we went he kept moving his leg so it was pressing against mine, and then he would move it slightly so it was rubbing against me. I kept shifting to stop touching him but he kept moving closer and doing the same thing. When we got to my stop I said excuse me so he could move to let me by, and he looks at me and says "Thank you, and have a nice day." What the hell did he mean, "thank you"? Uuugh. I don't think I'd ever ran off the subway faster.

I know that maybe he was just a jackass with no concept of how much space he's taking up, but the idea that he did it on purpose and got something from it is freaking me out. DNW strangers rubbing against me then thanking me as if I'd said it was okay. :(

Ew. Yeah, that guy was totally getting off on assaulting you. People like that make me wanna stab them with any number of the writing utensils I keep handy for just such an occasion. xP

Yeah, that's the super creepy thing of it, if he was liking my discomfort. :( Pencil stabbing sadly didn't happen, but for now drinking is sufficing to make me feel better :)

Urrgh, that sounds awful. D: I'm sorry that happened to you, what a creeper.

Good to know other people think he's a creeper too. At least it's not just me overreacting. :)

Aah subway creepers. I haven't encountered them in awhile though. I feel like they're more prevalant on the Broad Street Line than the Market-Frankfort cause I used to run into weird people all the time haha

Aah I forgot the meme for yesterday! I got home like close to 12 though so thats my excuse =P

This was on the Market-Frankfort during the morning rush. It's weird now because I'm probably getting the same subway whenever I go into school, and I don't want to see the guy again. :(

I keep forgetting about the meme too. Even so, it has me posting more than usual!
