...ugokanai...

Bleagh... I just got home after an hour and a half on a stationary train. Not sure quite what happened there. If I knew it'd take so long I'd've probably taken a taxi home from the station I was stuck at. But I was studying Japanese for a while, and I had a seat, so I didn't really care for the first hour. The guy next to me fell asleep and started snoring.

At around midnight I finally got fed up and left, but I didn't have change for a taxi, so was looking for some random item to buy at the convenience store when I heard an announcement from the station, and ran back in to catch the train leaving.

I did get to see a rare sight - a Japanese person losing their rag. Some guy suddenly jumped up from his seat, marched over to the train driver's window and started bellowing insults and a 'what the **** do you ****s think you're doing?!' type of tirade for a full five minutes. And I mean BELLOWING. Most of the other passengers looked kind of shifty-eyed and pretended not to be paying attention.
