I routinely slow or quicken my pace to avoid this dead zone.

The trend at the grocery store with the sanitized wipes near the carts to wipe the bar on the cart you push it with. Yes it make sense and obviously a good thing. But people do it like a ritual.

I only use them when no one else is around at the time I'm entering. I feel like I'm part a cult otherwise.

Oh yeah, sorry; I forgot that the sanitized-bar-wipe-ritual has reduced grocery cart induced deaths by 1,076% since it was first introduced.

Twice today someone held a door open for me while I was exiting after they'd entered. Since the doors swung out, in order to hold it open after they'd passed through, they had to stand in the middle of the doorway, arm extended, so that I had to turn sideways in order to squeeze past them. Very helpful.

What's weird is that so many people then toss the soiled wipe into the cart they put their groceries in.

I had no idea that this part of the train is called passenger car. Now that I think about it in two other languages that I am familiar with, this thing is called very similar: "Wagen" in German and "вагон" in Russian. Actually when I read wiki
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Histor...s_and_tramways, I think that it is also possible to use "wagon" in english.

"Wagon" in English.

In English, a "wagon" is a child's toy or something on a farm used to haul hay. It may be used for other items but it is not a passenger rail car.

When someone gives you a gift and you feel compelled to use it when you're around them.

Spoiler:


Spiderdog wore a shirt to the kid's soccer game today because we thought the gift giver would be there.

That's also why you can't buy a half gallon of ice cream anymore. That size was shrunk years ago.

This confuses me. If I reduce something by 100%, I've reduced it to zero. So what does it mean to reduce deaths by 1,076%? Are we creating life by using these wipes?
