I have Smiley's People by John le Carre. The often-indeciphrable prose makes me feel like I'm having my head stoved in, so it could be useful.

I think this could be an interesting topic to explore in its own thread actually. I don't understand either (maybe thankfully?).
Look at the fucking bystanders makes me sick.

Come on they barely have time to properly react to what the hell is happening.
what should they do? it takes some time to realize the situation and to react...
Lol, I feel bad for the people in the similar users section.

They're all running away.

The woman in the green(?) shirt at the front watches the entire thing, then just strolls off.

There's nothing funny about this, someone tried to kill a random person. In fact, I'm pretty sure the woman who pushed the other woman actually died.
What's wrong with you?
They only start running away when the two women are already on the tracks. At this point there's nothing they can do anymore considering how close the train was.
Edit: Also, this isn't even remotely funny, and that's not even arguable.

She got about 1 sec to make it over there when she finally sees her being pushed...
GAF is such a bunch of fucking super heroes sometimes.

Perfect way to weasle of the murderers, lets lock up the similar users!they are our future
This really only made laugh in relief when the train stopped.
It's happening really fast though. There isn't much time to make sense of what is going on. Also, some people just freeze when something like that is happening.
Yeah. No one wants to witness two people being run over by a train. I'm sure the end result is not particularly pleasant.

There's nothing 'super-hero' about it, don't be so dramatic. I would've expected someone to at least rush to the edge of the tracks to see if they can help them back up, or see if they're okay.
There's nobody close enough to actually stop them tumbling over the edge, but once they go over it's like they stopped existing in the minds of everyone there.

That guy is a MLP fan, not a furry. Please don't link us furs with those people
Besides, I've been part of the Furry fandom for over 16 years and I've never seen this connection :/

Running from imminent danger is one of our most primal instincts. Not to mention the situation takes something extremely ordinary like waiting for a train and turns it into something extraordinary. Everyone is caught off guard. Not to mention the whole thing happens in three seconds. Before your brain has the time to process what is actually happening, it is already over.
As for the woman "strolling away" - she was about to witness two people getting run over by a train, perhaps she didn't want to have that image burnt into her eyes for the rest of her life?
Come on people.
Anyway, ontopic:

There is a chance you would have been dragged over the platform too, if you tried to join in.
I'd rather be an alive coward, than a dead hero.

Looked up that subway gif.
Happened in Mexico City.
Both survived, the women that tried to commit murder got 20 years in prison.

That murder attempt sure made me laugh

I was going to say, I have no idea where he got that "infantilism" connection. That's a little strange.

So that one guy represents the whole fandom? Okay :/
Sure there are some "Babyfurs". But really not many, compared to those who aren't. I work on some of the largest fur community sites and you really don't see them much.
In fact, the ratio of infantism fetishists who aren't furries is probably far higher.
Anyway, a pic to stay on topic:

Like I said in a previous post, I'm sure the overlap is something that a Venn diagram could demonstrate. Not that either side is fully part of the other. Post you quoted was just responding to the claim of there being no connection between the two, or never seeing the connection.

Can we ban this piece of shit? I'm sick of these people who come in fucking threads and post jokes when somebody has died or whatever. Get these people off the fucking board.

Why the long case?
Dude, take a nap. Good lord
That was clearly not a joke...

Both are groups of people who have given up on society and personal development to fully embrace their immature, escapist fetish.
What a dumbass... wth
Had to be russian ofc. There's has to be something biologically different in the brain of all these russian young adults.
