The Pasty nerd fks lament...their wimpness thread?
Me, I never squeeze and won't be squeezed!
I just stand over the punk, look 'em straight in the eye, and in my best Brooklyn bred voice, nice and soft: "Get the F up!"
Gotta say the F word in the Brooklyn 'double slurred syllable' manner. Emphasis on the "K".
Sometimes, all you gotta do is give the "Eye".
I LOVE intimidating Transplants!! A distinct pleasure....
And then the people already sitting there laugh at your infantile, self-entitled attitude, and the one you're trying to intimidate says, "Eeew! Step back with your smelly self! I got news for ya, bro, soap and water is still cheap!" You scurry away, sniffing yourself and trying to remember when the last time you actually bathed was. Then a little old church lady taps you on the shoulder and hands you a bible tract and thirty-six cents and says, "Have a blessed day!"
I never, ever make room when some giant piece of human livestock tries to squeeze in next to me on the subway.
I find that men usually try to spread their legs wide open when they sit down, but I stand my ground and don't allow them to push me aside. There was one time though, that I wasn't paying attention and let the guy beside me inch his legs further and further apart until I was almost sitting sideways. I didn't give him any warning before I reclaimed my space.

What does a Long Island Transplant know about nothing....
If I smelt that bad, it w/b so easy. I wouldn't just get a seat, but I'd get a whole car to myself!!!
YES! Fellas, why do you do that? We all know your balls aren't that big.
Also, Doobage, how are you able to stand your ground? I try, but hate the feeling of a stranger pressed against me. Yuck!
I tense my leg muscles much as I can and plant my feet so that I can't be shoved easily out of the space I was in. Or I jut an elbow out or something else (weatherman said it was raining but it isn't? put that umbrella to use ) to "force" that physically imposing person to give me my personal space. If I'm carrying a bag, I'll wedge it in between us and make no apologies. I've gotten more than one offended look after doing that, with men who were reaching into a pant pocket that just happened to be right against my thigh. Suddenly whatever they were reaching for wasn't so urgently needed anymore! I don't care.
I don't mind strangers pressed up against me, this is the land of crowded subways anyway. But it's crystal clear when someone is imposing on your space intentionally.
