Stand in the isle directly beside them. Occasionally swing a hip into them as you go over a bump. Maybe fart a little bit.
There’s a free space by the window. But someone’s already sitting in the aisle seat, avoiding eye contact at all costs.You’re left with an awkward decision, do you ask them to budge up?
It is not awkward at all. Tell him to move his backpack (if there is one) and sit there.
If you don’t want someone to sit beside you, sit on the window seat then eagerly look at everyone walking past and pat the seat beside you. Nobody wants to sit beside that guy.
This works 98% of the time. When it doesn’t, oh boy! You’re in for an “interesting” conversation!
Use at your own risk!
I envy your social skills. ^^’
Its actually a lack of them.
“Hey, can you move your bag so I can have that seat?”
Is a profound lack of give a damn about how uncomfortable I make other people. They know what they are doing, quietly signalling that they dont want anybody sitting there. Other people who do have social graces will stand around quietly staring daggers and silently judging, Im just gonna make this shit awkward for the both of us.

Why would I give a fuck what they want? They are not entitled to the public space.
man i’m glad i don’t have to share public transport with people like you
Only assholes use two seats when more than half the seats are full.
People who claim more than their share of a limited resource are the reason society isn’t nicer.
If someone does this on the tram I make a point of climbing past them to get to the window seat.

The worst are those who edge while rawdogging the journey
Don’t cum on the train!
Don’t edge on the train!
What do you people want from me?
You’re left with an awkward decision, do you ask them to budge up? Or do you just accept defeat and stand up for the next 30 minutes?
What’s awkward about this situation? Just ask them to move and sit there.
They’ve got headphones on
Wave in their face and point. Rude people aren’t entitled to politeness.
I edge because that empty space usually get me trapped by rank mofos who dont know hygeine. Wash you rank fuckers
That’s public transport for you. You pay for one ticket, you get one seat; you don’t get a whole row to yourself just because you don’t like other people.
Pay for first class if you want more space and a seat on your own.
Seems like you really understand the experiences of the person you’re replying to
So you leave your place when someone smelly sits there?
Sometimes dangerous. I once moved when someone at the station smoked close to me, and he took it as offense and on the train he sat across the aisle from me and stared at me the whole ride until he luckily got off 2 or 3 stations earlier than me. I just kept pretending to read in my ebook reader while watching out of the corner of my eye and plotting my escape should he get off at the same station as me.
You’re getting downvoted, but as a woman I have been and have seen other women hemmed in by creepy men for sitting in the window seat. I’d rather be rude than at risk.
