So I can totally understand having to lean against the person next to you on the bus when it’s packed. For a few blocks on the way home this afternoon, the shuttle was like that, but then the density lightened up a bit. But did the guy next to me get the off of me? No. He practically laid on me the entire length of the mall. Tip to the world: When it’s not absolutely necessary, don’t lean on the person next to you on the damned bus!
