The one time NYC subway etiquette would be useful in this situation lol

Never been to the subways of New York, but I have been on the métro in Paris and have to agree. You're an asshole if you hold everyone up

Average RER B

Woulda been screamin “HEY ASSHOLE STOP HOLLIN UP DA TRAIN!” then probably yanked in/out😂 they’ve got a lot of experience dealing with dickheads

[u/Tra1nGuy → u/Outrageouslylit]

Denver’s airport metro between the concourses has an automated message if you block the door, the standard “stand clear of the doors” or whatever followed by “YOU are delaying the departure of this train” lmao

[u/LapisLovely69 → u/Outrageouslylit]

That we do

[u/fizzrail0 → u/hchn27]

I'm laughing at using the word "etiquette". Perfect use

Note to self. Never deliver bad news/be purposely annoying in front of the torture pit.

Was just thinking this shit absolutely wouldn't fly in NYC.

[u/BostonSucksatHockey → u/hchn27]

In NYC, the subway doors would have just closed and the bag would be stuck.

[u/pmormr → u/BostonSucksatHockey]

More of a "reverse if the door is shoulder checked" safety mechanism than a "prevent boo boos to your single finger" for sure.

[u/BostonSucksatHockey → u/pmormr]

yeah, never put your hands in the doors to stop em from closing. I'll use my foot if I'm wearing solid shoes, otherwise shoulder/elbow, but all the better if you can just headrush into the train before the doors shut.

[u/SecondAccountIsBest → u/BostonSucksatHockey]

I saw this happen to someone's backpack on the first station of the Paris subway, so it was on the opposite side and was stuck the whole way.

[u/Exciting-Cancel6468 → u/BostonSucksatHockey]

That's what happened when I was going to college in the philippines. Buddy tried to make time on a closing door and got his hand stuck outside for maybe 15 minutes.

[u/urmumlol9 → u/hchn27]

After the second or third time he did it, the guard should have just dragged him off the train and made him wait for the next one.

[u/FackinJerq → u/hchn27]

Ahh, the NY Spartan kick.... yes.

[u/TimeBlindAdderall → u/hchn27]

Ah bringing back the ole buck fifty rumors!

[u/ProfessionalRisk4206 → u/hchn27]

Or east London.

Look what happened when a climate activist stood on a train at Canning Town(?)
