So this little TSA manlet with a douche bag chin-strap beard tries to board immediately as the doors open only to have myself and another guy who were ready to exit not give him any leeway. He looked pretty clumsy passing through the ringer. As he squeezed by I somewhat loudly (and rhetorically) asked him why he couldn't wait till we exited before entering the train. He just kept shuffling onward and shook his head mumbling under his breath. I already despise the TSA enough as it is...fuel for the fire.

What is with certain people trying get on a train or elevator without letting the other people get off first?
It's always comical to watch them step into the flow of people attempting to disembark trying to zig zag their way through the crowd.

Does that line of thinking also apply to creating threads and/or posts that disparage a certain handsome NTSB spokeswoman?

I agree. APC needs more FAs.

All the blue shirt monkeys that sprint out of the light rail in MSP Terminal 2 to get to the parking garage parking to avoid other people sharing the elevator with them smh...!!
I, unfortunately, once had an opportunity to walk behind two of these imbasols in blue shirt. Their conversation was shocking. It pretty much related to passenger discomfort and their abuse by them.

I also nominate those that can't differentiate between 'there' and "they're" or "your" and "you're". End of rant. Thanks bye
