so i get on the subway and three women get in with me, one takes a seat. standing on the subway is like standing in a hallway, you look one way or the other. a hallway with repetitive advertising all over it and seats full of people with wandering eyes. im mindin my own business, listening to some tunes, i turn and meet eyes with this chick and she rolls her eyes at me. what the fuck? i only noticed her because she cut me off to get a seat i wasnt going to take, i usually stand at the door. why in the fuck would she roll her eyes at me other than to think that i meant to meet glances with her. not fer nuthin but i wouldnt give the girl a cigarette if she tried to bum one. it really annoyed the fucking fuck outta me to think that she mighta been thinking, 'ewww why is that dude checking me out...' i dont give ego boosts out like that for free. i feel violated
so remember kids dont ever make eye contact with anyone, ever.
:rolleyes:

how can you laugh when my ego was raped! something about subways teems with sexuality but never really in a good way. by the time the average new yorker gets to work during rush hour their genitals have rubbed more buttocks than the average iowans' does in a decade. i often feel like i need to take a bath in holy water and nonoxynol-9 before i walk into my office *shivers*

dude, the subways in HongKong aren't that much different. Even if my wife is sitting on my lap due to overcrowding, I get that look very often.
Maybe it's cause I'm a white devil, who knows. It's even funnier when they speak Chinese and my wife will translate "she's definitly a hooker, can't he get enough" to me as to what they're saying.

understood... what's even better is when you can understand it yourself. You'd be surprised how much people will talk about you (in front of you) if they believe you don't understand them...
I'm a "white devil" too but I can get by with the chinese mandarin I've learned. In Hong Kong I'd be a little nervous 'cause it's cantonese mostly there...
also.. the best part about being a chick on the subway when it's crowded is that sometimes guys will put their prick right in your face and stare at you... now I stand.. I'm only on it for 3 stops now so it's not a big deal to sit anymore...

How's your character reading?
hrrrmph, so many questions. China is one of the best travels.

i know your plight. i tend to look down or read those damn ads over and over and over again. they need to come up with more interesting ads, like the subway poetry, but more like subway short stories.

doesnt dr zizmor look like a smug mofo?
have you ever seen the blind guy that plays the accordion? he speaks some sort of european accent, 'athankyaverymuuuschhh.' the guy is blind and shuffles through crowded and in between cars when its moving. i always quietly bug out thinking he's gonna fall in between cars

give her the benefit of the doubt...
I know I catch myself rolling my eyes in general while riding the subways, whether it is thinking about my day or the commute home or how some douchebag doesnt respond to the polite words "Excuse me" or "Pardon me"
I see people watching me roll my eyes and they think its directed at them... everyone has their guard up, and no one likes when they think someone is judging them...
i like to smile at people sarcastically when they roll their eyes at me...

I made eye contact with a man on the bus yesterday... Yeah, never do that. Then they ask "Oh, where ya' goin'?" "Do you like to party, hun?" "Want to suck my cock?"
*shudder*

exactly what i was thinking(y)
remember, don't make direct eye contact with others... like dogs, they'll take it as invading their territory and attack!!
why is it that everyone wants to pick a fight with me?? i'm keeping my head down from now on and get acquainted with my adidas... after awhile i'll transform into quasimoto the hunchback and scuffle my way home with my face hidden yelling "don't look at me!! SANCTUARY....SANCTUARY!!"

I tend to read when I take a bus and not make a lot of contact with people, particuarly on certain bus lines. But some bus lines are okay, especially at certain times of the day, and I sometimes strike up conversations with the oldies--like the ones who sit way up at the front and who seem to need to talk to someone even if it's just boring talk like how's the weather or what are you reading.

this isnt about making eye contact in public its about someone being too into themselves when it happens. :mad:
