I took this from [livejournal.com profile] skuldchan. And if you want to laugh at all of my weeaboo music, you can blow me sideways.

THE RULES:
Step 1: Put your music player on shuffle.
Step 2: Post the first line (or first and second line if it's completely impossible) from the first 20 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing.
Step 3: Strike out the songs when someone posts the next line correctly.
Step 4: Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is CHEATING!
Step 5: If you like the game post your own!

--------------------------------------

When the light rail doors opened this morning, a guy who was stepping out as I was stepping in said "There's nowhere to sit down in there." There were at least five open seats, not having come from people who just vacated, but the catch was that they were all next to somebody else. Nobody was standing in the aisles.

Would somebody from Boston, or San Francisco, or New York, say that there's "nowhere to sit" on the subway if it meant you had to sit next to somebody else? Or would that situation be called spacious?

I admit that I have the same tendencies. I am extremely introverted, dislike people getting in my space, and, if I can swing it, I get a seat as isolated as possible. Honestly, I'm afraid somebody will start a random conversation, and I won't be able to read. If the ride is short enough, I'll stand rather than sit next to a stranger. That is me, though. It is hard to tell how much of that is me being me, or how much of that is me being spoiled on an Arizonan/Texan concept of personal space.

Maybe this isn't a phenomenon you see much in larger cities where public transit is more ubiquitous and crowded. You'd have to tell me. I don't think Phoenicians are used to crowds, or having a lack of space. Everything about Phoenix sprawls.
