    Every time I board a subway in China or Korea, I should carry a projector and show the people waiting how good the Japanese are at getting on and off subways. As long as it's a platform with a full wall, and not the half wall a mob of people could potentially chuck you over.

        Sounds complicated. I just shove people out of the way. Unless they're kids, old people, or infirm in some way.

          No, it literally means the same thing in this case, it's a regional variant. I heard people say it around northern Virginia several times.

          Feel free to imagine something else though.

          I understood what it meant. I also understood that using the phrase "flicking someone off" is not widely recognized.

          This reminds me of something I saw in BoneAppleTea back in my Reddit days.

              Technically yes, but in no way was my driving unsafe to anyone

                Cars really need a variety of horns. Like one that politely says "pardon me, do you happen to have any grey poupon?" and one that says "move or I'll rip yer fucken eyeballs out!"

                Trucks in SEA often do, they have this warbling "hey, I'm here", and then a much more aggressive "get the fuck out of the way!". People also modulate their bike horn to just give a little chirp so the person you're passing knows you're there, or two to say thank you, 3+ loud ones to say "get out of the way", etc

                  Honking is like the most not overkill thing ever when a car isn't moving at a green light

                  I don't know where you learned to drive, but I clearly remember that lesson from driving school "honking is only to be used in case of immediate danger". Which, here, is clearly not the case.

                    Similarly, I give the condescending head shake, like a disappointed father.

                      They taught you poorly. Honking is also used to say hi, to tell someone they need to stay in their lane, and to warn them the light is green
