Eric Banana thinks that some people really ought to learn how to read, for they are *obviously* unable to distinguish between "Entrance" and "Exit".
Eric Banana was on a bus (SMRT Service 963) heading towards Harbourfront earlier this evening. The bendy bus was packed, and he had to stand all the way, right between the entrance and the exit in the first half of the bus.
Halfway through the journey, a seated couple was trying to alight, and the guy eye-signalled to Eric to make way so that they could get to the entrance. WTF?! Their distance to the entrance was two times longer than their distance to the exit. Furthermore, there were four people obstructing their path to the entrance versus just one for the exit. Naturally, Eric Banana did not give way. Instead he gave the guy a cold stare and mouthed, "The exit is over there" as he pointed towards the exit behind the couple.
The guy gave Eric Banana a not-so-nice look before he alighted with the gal. Eric Banana wonders what's wrong with some people nowadays. He can understand people alighting via the entrance if the bus is jam packed and they are standing closer to the entrance. However, if it is just a bad habit of convenience, Eric Banana thinks that it's about time they corrected their behaviour.
P.S. To those half-blind bats, Eric Banana would like to point out that to alight, they should just head for the door with the shorter word written on top of it. E-X-I-T.

*poof poof* If cold stares could make people disappear... that would have been one.
That wasn't my worst cold stare yet *LOL*
Good thing you don't drive around... so dangerous...

everyone else! :P
I won't resort to cold stares if I drive.. there are more reliable *erm* stuff to use..
*Eric Banana casually thinks about a series of potentially dangerous wea.. equipment*
