"Humans are the only things on earth that do not follow the law of diffusion" - my friend
Well, sad to say but it is true. Just today when I was taking the bus home after tuitioning my two little terrors I realized that while the front of the bus was packed like sardines (I was lucky to get a nice window seat), there was a huge gap towards the end of the bus. Imagine a TIBS bus and three rows of seats worth of aisle was empty. Extremely ridiculous. I mean can't anyone see that the people in front has barely any place to stand on the bus and there you are talking away with your friends without making a single effort to move in. Honestly, ignorance is not excuable here. He (They) should be glad that the bus driver has not screamed at them yet.
And moving on, I realized my dear friend's theory holds true also for other instances besides buses. Take a look at MRT stations. Everyone seems to love squeezing in the middle cabins (I am supposing it's because it's near the escalator) with no regards to the amount of empty towards the end (or front) of the train. What's so nice about squeezing seriously. You mean it's so nice to sniff other people's sweat, stand so close to the opposite sex as though you are almost kissing each other. Maybe people are just kaypoh. They like to overhear people's convo (although I am wondering if overhearing is the right word. Everyone stands so close to each other it's as though the person's talking to you). Or maybe they are sexually deprived and they enjoy seing young couples kissing on the train.
Seriously. Use your brain.
