A skill is too much to ask. I just want people to move out of the way when they get off the escalator so I don't bump into their asses.
Fellow fast walker?
Not even. They literally just stand there at the exit of the escalator, looking around for where to go next, and I have nowhere to go but to bump into them, because the escalator doesn't exactly let me stop when they stop.
Preemption.
Not just when they're walking, but waiting until they're at the front of the queue to decide what to order, or being surprised when the light turns green, or getting home to find nothing to eat in the fridge... The number of people I know who just refuse to think a couple of steps ahead.
