  2. sure, that’s probably not a problem on a crowded rush hour train. jackass. i know, i know. standing for upward of six minutes can be really taxing, so i sympathize with this guy. in my best roger dorn, what-do-you-want-me-to-do-dive-for-it voice, “What do you want me to do? Stand for six minutes?”
