1. The Bigot - This is the secretary with bad hair who agonized over whether to sit next to the Indian guy on the train yesterday, fucking up my ability to do so. I didn't like waiting behind you for the obvious open seat while you waited to grab the seat directly across from the guy next to the smiling blonde girl. Since I'm writing this, I guess your suspicioan that he may have been a Hindu terrorist was unfounded, but your vigilance ia appreciated. Keep an eye on those Sikhs. They carry knives, like your cousin who was stationed off India once told you...
2. The Guy on the Phone - I use the phone on the train, but only when I'm lucky enough to get the bulkhead space in the middle of the car which is walled off (the best seat in the train). Don't sit next to me and discuss dinner and work with your wife.
3. PC Guy - Get over yourself, Poindexter - Your brief isn't that important that you need to get out the PC on the 35 minute ride. Print out the cases you need to read before you leave the office and attempt to read them on the train, like the partners do.
4. Younger single attractive people - While you're agonizing over whether you can sit next to the hot, probably single guy/girl with the open seat, I'm stuck behind you watching the seats in front of you fill up from passengers getting on from the other side. Just sit down already - he/she isn't going to turn to you and say "Hey, loads of sexual tension, huh" or "Just so you know, you don't stand a chance" if you sit next to him/her. Who knows... maybe you'll get lucky.

Looks like the transformation is complete. WIld, show touring, mushroom congesting, marlboro light smoking, hackeysack playing free spirit is now middle ages suburban middle class commuter guy. I am so depressed. Its like Coltrane is the only youngster amonst us and he probalby has one foot inthe grave thanks to Sequels and her mainstream movie prefernces and ticking clock to be.
