Non commuters - most annoying thing

[Lower West Stander]

Hi all - new to NSC so please be gentle!

As a commuter I get hugely pissed off with non commuters who spread themselves across two seats on a rush hours and then give you a filthy look when you ask them to move their crap so you can sit down.

Just wondered what gets on the nerves of my fellow travellers?

Got to agree with you there. It's like they feel they have some kind of force field around them that either puts people off asking them to move or they believe they are invisible.

I hate it when the train reaches East Croydon. It's like a load of cattle trying to squeeze into the carriage. A noticeable lack of manners and courtesy once you get north of Redhill.

Oh and welcome to the madhouse that is NSC.

Really annoys me when i am spread across 2 seats and then someone asks me to move my stuff off a seat so thay can sit down, how selfish

 

[Everest]

Fecking commuters asking me to move my stuff just so they can sit down.
If you want a seat, get on the train at an earlier station.

I would add sitting on the seat near the aisle leaving the empty seat next to the window, hoping that no-one will ask you to get up. But if you're a regular commuter and get 'hugely pissed off' by this kind of stuff, you're not going to be long for this world.

Im kidding by the way, it pisses me off too

People who don't let me 'spread out' during rush hour (i joke)

 

[disgruntled h blocker]

Being a daily stubborn commuter if the only sitting options are having to sit next to someone, I would tend to choose to sit next to someone who has spread themselves over two seats just to press the point home

This , just because they've got an annual ticket doesn't mean it gives them additional privileges

Blokes who sit with their legs spread out, usually to accomodate mahoosive thighs or beer gut - forcing me to sit - er - sidesaddle. Or they open the newspaper across your face.

I will sit down and spread my things across the seat next to me, but will gladly move it if asked politely.

This... I especially hate the ones that press there legs against yours and then follow your leg when you move it trying to get away from them.....

TWATS who read a massive broadsheet on a train/tube piss me off! And foreigners who dont stop talking in their native language. And Chinese people who stop right in front of you as you're trying to get through London Victoria, I don't know why but the Chinese f***ing love to do it.

People with backpacks on who don't realise that when they turn round, they're going to hit people with it.

People who have those pull-along suitcases and nearly trip up all the people they cut across.

People who never give up their seats for pregnant women (only other women seem to notice and do this)

 

[Southstandfaithful]

People who talk continuously on their mobiles the entire journey home and despite commuting most days, still seem surprised when they lose reception in a tunnel.

Oh! I thought the sign with someone sitting down with a big belly was for anyone with a beer gut, I will get up next time. ( joke ).

Indeed. 'Leg spreaders'. Obviously very gay as they love to press their leg up against mine.

Used to commute to London by train - don't anymore.

What really used to p**s me of was having to travel through East Croydon and look at Sh*tehurst Park every day!!
