People who could really stand to be more polite on the T, but probably won't no matter how many Dunkin' Donuts coupons they get

Before questioning why the T feels it needs to bribe people to be nice, Spatch lists some people who need some special courtesy lovin' - such as people with iPods CRANKED ALL THE WAY UP and BU students who wear their backpacks on crowded trains:

...What I really want to do with these backpack folks is carry around a Barrel O' Monkeys toy, and if they insist on dangling their backpack in front of me, I am going to see how many monkeys I can dangle from their backpack without them noticing. ...

Mike Mennonno thinks it's wonderful the T has found a way for all those ex-token clerks to get paid to entertain the public:

... Former token-takers will perform Shakespeare on trains. Richard III is suggested, since the description of Richard as 'rudely stamp'd,' 'deformed, unfinish'd', who cannot 'strut before a wanton ambling nymph,' seems easiest for T employees to act out. ...

Finally (for now), Joe Keohane wonders:

If you had to choose between spitting in a total stranger's eye just for kicks, and a free cup of Dunkin, which would you go for?
