It is healthier to take the stairs tho. It won’t make you lose weight but it is still very important

NGL when I commuted on train/subway, my fat ass would take the stairs nearly everytime.
Not because it’s healthier, but because all the other fatasses on the already-too-narrow escalator have absolutely no concept of escalator etiquette, and I got a fucking train to catch because our subway ran 20 minutes late.

I hate the concept of escalator etiquette because there’s the smallest amount of space and people feel the need to carve it up for those who can’t be patient or use the wide stairs. there’s no reason someone can’t use stairs if they are in a hurry.

The reason to use the escalators is because it’s twice as fast if you walk up them.
If you want to take the escalators to be lazy, that’s fine…stay to the right and out of my way. Same rules as the highway. Not complicated.

maybe the concept of being in a hurry is alien to me as I am not tardy or impatient, or accept that I will be late and just not act like a baboon rushing towards a potential lunch.

Yeah bro sorry my subway already ran twenty minutes late and I wanna catch this train so I can see my kids before they go to bed.
You keep being a dick.

I take the stairs because you can’t take the escalator with a bike but I can easily carry my bike up the stairs. Well, at least when other people don’t crowd around me then complain when they get smacked in the shin by a pedal. Like wtf did you think would happen? I am clearly carrying a bike and it’s not exactly soft.
