This reminds me of the time I got congratulated by a few people after I snapped at a train station. I was at Vic Park station around midnight during stampede. Three trains went by and people were only filling it 3/4 capacity but the platform was packed. Finally I went a little haywire, put my arms out and started pushing people forward into the train. I yelled "come on people, fill the aisles, some of us want to get home tonight!!
It started a mini riot and suddenly everyone started yelling "Yeah! Fill the train! Let's go"

The train packed up like a sardine can and we took off. Then a big conversation broke out among total strangers along the lines of "some people are soo stupid. Just fill the f'n train when there are people trying to get on"
