1) Being sat on a train, and finally seeing someone ask the bloke to move who’s spent the last half hour of the journey jealously guarding the empty seat beside him. Bonus points when he spends the remainder of the journey hunched up against the window with a scowl on his face.

It’s easy, just keep pretending to mop your brow and cough lots and you will usually get the whole carriage to your self.

Or crack one off. The old leaden cloud should see him off.

I find that usually draws a crowd.

2) Flinging a teabag into the bin from the other side of the room.

3) Having a stained kitchen wall from the constant misses.

In fairness, I do this. I'm 6ft5in and cant fit comfortable into the window seat on a bus or train, so I sit in the aisle seat to allow my legs to go down the aisle. If someone asks I will happily get out of the way for them to take the vacant window seat.

I'm with you on this.

If the seat next to my reserved seat is empty, I will sit in the unreserved set to give me leg room.

...usually means people don't ask me to move as the seat next to me is reserved

Although, I generally dont do that if its a peak time train.

I tried something similar the other day. I have to cross the concourse at Liverpool St at right angles to flow of commuters, and usually people pretend they haven't seen you, keep going and cut you up, or bump into you, or tut loudly as they've had to alter their course by 0.5cm etc.etc. As an experiment one evening last week I coughed really, really loudly from one side of the concourse to the other. It was like Moses and the parting of the red sea! I sailed through like I had a force-field around me!
