Meanies on the Orange Line

Jenny reports she was transferring from the Red to the Orange Line when a man ran into her:

... Not like was "running trying to get by me and accidentally clipped my side but was entirely sorry" - THE MAN CAME UP FROM BEHIND AND FULL ON RAN INTO ME AND SHOVED ME TO THE SIDE SO HE COULD GET BY. Hit me so hard to the point where I made the noise you would imagine you yourself would make if someone ran into you. The kicker? He did NOT even glance back to say "I'm sorry".

I can't say I was sad for him when he missed the train. By like two seconds. I was actually quite happy. ...

My story pales by comparison, but here goes:

Last night, as my Orange Line train was about to pull into Forest Hills, a T conductor or whatever had to rush to the front of the train, or at least, the next car, for some reason. Dude's sitting in a seat next to the "Do not pass through" door, feet out, as he adjusts his doo rag, totally oblivious to the fact that some seemingly crazed T lady is rapidly approaching. T employee bellows "WATCH YA FEET!" as she unlocks the door and disappears into the next car. Guy looks at the people sitting across from him and says "'Excuse me' would have worked, too."
