Yo CTA, make a down escalator I have a super strong preference for going up stairs these days, because I know fattiies will just wait in line for the escalator. Unfortunately Chicago's public transit only has up escalators, so I often get trapped behind butter barges while are too addleposed to keep right and too big for it to matter.  Thankfully I'm tall enough that I get to watch my train pull away as they lumber onwards towards their next fix.
