When I ride the bus, or the train, I try very hard to get the same seat location every time. The reasons for this are two-fold. First my seat selection is based on crash safety. Seats facing backwards are always the safest in forward collisions in that the passenger cannot be thrown. Second the safest seat is usually conducive to sleep in that there is somewhere to rest your feet...When I see someone in my preferred seat, I get a little pissed off...
When I go to the bathroom at work, I ALWAYS use the same stall. Much like a dog, but without the intent, I have, for lack of a better term, claimed my territory with waste. It drives me NUTS when I walk into the bathroom and MY stall is occupied. I get enraged and become the brown Incredible Hulk...I swear I could kick the door down and destroy the trespasser. OK that is a little much, but seriously, is it normal for a grown man (and I use that term lightly) to be so territorial over a stall in the bathroom???
