I walk abnormally fast, even for Tokyo. And when I'm cranky, it's like everyone's moving in extra slow motion, so my morning commute through Shinjuku Station = fucking insufferable.
Oh, GO AHEAD! SAUNTER! DAWDLE! SHUFFLE! PAUSE! Check your phone on the way down the stairs! Congregate with your school friends in front of my exit! TAKE YOUR TIME! It's not like this place was SPECIFICALLY BUILT FOR PEOPLE WHO NEED TO GET SOMEWHERE! ... I'm always early for work, so I really have no reason to hurry, haha. But sorry, I can't handle slow walkers and businessmen in the same place at 7AM.

I survive by reminding myself how stoked my brother was when he found out that the video for "Intergalactic" by the Beastie Boys was filmed in Shinjuku Station. He was so proud to learn that his sister once lost her temper on a a stupid jerk salaryman right there at the South Exit and then comforted herself with a package of peanut M&Ms from that Kiosk. I'll never forget that night!
p.s. i didn't take that photo and can't remember where i stole it from!
It's High School all over again.

Gross! I'm not visiting. I almost screamed when I was at Powell Station today. FUCKING GAWD JUST MOVE ROOOAAAARRRRR!
I always try to move to the edge of the walking space, or wherever I can to get out of people's way if I need to stop for some reason.
In highschool I judge pushed through them all.
