When standing in line waiting for your turn there are a few things you have to consider. One is the average distance between people in line vs. the amount distance granted to the person using the ATM. You have to make sure that you stand close enough to the person in front of you to show you are in line, but you also have to respect that person’s need for space. So, how far is that exactly?

The difference between personal space and social space varies from person to person. Usually people prefer to stand between four and six feet away from others while in a social setting. Standing at the ATM though, those rules are sometimes broken, much to the discomfort of those involved. The need for space is important to most people but if you stand six feet away from the person front of you, the people behind you will complain. Kind of like driving and not keeping two chevrons in between you and the car ahead. You know you’re supposed to, but you don’t.

The last time I was standing in line waiting for my turn at the ATM, the lady behind me had no concept of personal space. She kept bumping my ass with her purse and I didn’t like it. I kept moving away, and she would follow. When it was my turn to use the machine, she was right there beside me at the envelope thing. I’m at the machine, ready to punch in my access code, and she’s right beside me watching what I’m doing. So I did the first thing that popped into my head to make her step back. I asked how much she wanted. When she looked at me all confused, I explained that I figured she must be robbing me because why else would she be standing so fucking close to me watching me do my banking?

She moved back so fast she slammed into the guy behind her. Personal space successfully defended.

What you said!!!

What you said about the Bounty Bank Machine Etiquette!

Right on!

The biggest beef I have with people at ATM's are the drive-thru ones. It's a drive-thru! Yet I am always stuck behind some useless gork who feels it is necessary to do their whole year's banking at that time. Envelope upon envelope is consumed into the machine while I wait there for my turn. There are people in the bank who will do this job. Better than a machine. It is a useful job. Get out of the way and let us use the fucking machine!

What you said about Sarrah's article on Enough already

Right on sister! Fuck what other people think or say. I get all the time too
on my site. Morons. It's always the same tired bullshit, "You suck. I bet you're a cow. Get laid and then you won't be so bitter...blah,blah,blah" I try my best to laugh it off and recognize that my site, and yours, is not for them. I know I can be an angry cunt
and sometimes I rather enjoy it. Power to the Pussy!

Adam you are just jealous because Sarrah can actually ride a bike. You are probably still using a tricycle. Dumb ASS!

What you said about Sarrah's article on riding a bike in TO

Adam: Maybe if you rode your bike properly you woodnét have so many problems. Cunt.

Barb: I know how you feel. I'm scared to ride my bike in the city because of people that donét look before opening their car doors.

Maria: Just because you ride a bike doesnét mean you own the road. Fucking bitch! You guys make it hard for us to drive with all the weaving you do.

Ray: It's easy. Stay home, donét go out, and you wonét have any problems.
