@Gina In the event of a movie action sequence, how is anyone supposed to hurdle the barriers to stop the bad people from getting away...?

@Gina Dutch public transport started to suck so much after I moved to Switzerland and got used to it here. No gates anywhere ever. No checking in or out ever. Such a breath of fresh air.

@Gina i usually go from/to stations without these gates (just the check-in poles which while less annoying, i could still rant about if my instance's character limit was higher) so i don't encounter them often.
and i still had an issue one time where only one side of the gate opened, so i had to squeeze into the station. if i wasn't incredibly underweight i wouldn't have been able to enter, while still having paid for the check-in.

@Gina how would it be, if one would just say: "nah, that's disgusting. I don't want these things... We'll just make it free, so we don't need these machines"

@Gina theyre the worst if you have a suitcase when and they try to close before your suitcase is through

@Gina a day at the horses?

@Gina On top of that the train ticket prices are disgustingly high in NL. At least the trains are more reliable than the DB (= Germany) ones 😂

It feels a bit salty to complain about turnstiles in the age of flock camera's, but they all suck.

@Gina those are turnstile, not hostile. #scnr
