Sucks!

On Sunday, I went out to meet a friend at Midvalley, so I used public transportation, the infamous commuter. Along with me, is a book, crossword puzzles, as well as my trusty MP3. I waited for the commuter for almost one hour, and during that hour people were piling up. I kinda said to myself it will be as crowded as a sardine can and I was right. I entered the woman's coach, in which 2/3 of the passengers were men. They were the one who were sitting down on the seats that were provided.Most of the women were standing. At one of the stop, some men kept pushing themselves into the coach, I can hear some women, trying their to fight for places that were rightfully theirs. I, on the other hand was trying my best to push 3 men from pinning me to the corner, I used the book that I was reading as my defense mechanism. One of the man, actually shouted at me, "Sandar jelah" I looked at him and tapped on the window which clearly indicate woman's coach, and said "Excuse me, encik yang salah masuk". He went quiet. In all that commotion, I even heard a woman screaming, begging for someone to return back her wallet. She had been pick pocketed.When commuter arrived at UKM, I got off, because it was becoming too uncomfortable, men, were pushing themselves in, few women also got off, and prefer to wait for the next train. Even at one of the station before UKM, I saw a KTMB official, just turn a blind eye, and ignoring the situation at hand. Hmm, maybe chivalry is no more.

Erk. That sucks.

This would be the perfect time to have tasers. Just tase those bastards, push them on to the floor, and step all over them to get to the seats.
