November 10, 2005 - Are you "That Guy?"

There are many versions of what "that guy" can be. First of all, they can be male or female, or even a mix of both. Secondly, they can do many things, including the one I am about to explain. However, every time 'that guy' does the act, you know you've seen it before, and you hate them - unless you ARE 'that guy.'

'That Guy' - version 1.0 - When that guy runs for the T and the doors are closing, but he manages to get on by pushing people on the steps and squeezing in. Not only does 'that guy' not take the comfort of other people into consideration, but 'that guy' could be in such an awkward position, that you may mistake them for your spouse.

When the doors close and you see people running, there is a solid chance that someone will squeeze and work their way into the cramped, crowded T. Next time this happens to you, stick an elbow out as a welcoming gift.
