This morning at O’Hare, after I say “excuse me” to the couple standing two abreast on the escalator and walk by. Him: “Why don’t you take the stairs? That’s not what these are made for. “

I could have waited. Sure. But there was no one in front of them and they stood two across, completely oblivious to me walking up behind them. I didn’t think saying excuse me was offensive

I don’t think passing on the left is an official thing on escalators as it is on moving walkways. You couldn’t wait 20 sec for the escalator to complete your ascent?

I think we can all agree that standing on the left is equivalent to committing war crimes. It basically makes you Hitler

Standing on the left is blasphemy when there's folks behind. Just as bad as hogging the fast lane on the motorway

I often say as i am walking around people standing obtusely in the way in the airport, 'this is a walk way not a stand way'

You will get run over in most large cities in Europe if you stand on the left. It’s inconsiderate and some folks have places to be while others are on vacation. Stand on the right!

Chop chop this is america time is money standing around is slowing business down

Can I just vent on how annoyed I am with the increase in “priority boarding” of people that are able bodied? I am happy to let them on first. But I think they should get off last. So many times they are limping or in a wheelchair boarding. And then when we land that are the first to jump up and scurry off. Just not ethical.
