Laptop Bag-

There is one thing that does not exist in China: personal space. I think its because there are so many people in a confined area...either way, people don't think twice about standing right next to you, running into you, or sitting halfway on your lap...its just the way things are. I accept that, but not without my passive aggressive attempt to make a difference. I have a 15lb, 15"screen, heavy duty laptop. I carry this monstrosity back and forth between work and home everyday. Strapped on, this huge piece of luggage becomes a ramming device that typically knocks people off balance and when it strikes its absolutely hilarious.
When walking around in large crowds, I do not alter my course or attempt to avoid the massive bodies coming at me. If they are staring (which is typical), they often don't notice the large, lumbering bag strapped to my side.

'BAM'-My laptop has struck again!

A man has just been knocked sideways! A look of surprise, alarm, and pain spreads across his face as he realizes he has walked too close and simply wasn't paying attention. He looks down in shock and sees he has just been whacked by a very large and heavy object. If only he had not been walking a) directly in my path or b) been looking not at my face, but where he was going, this whole encounter could have been avoided. But alas, he, like most people don't think about such things.

After I rush by, pretending not to have noticed, a grin spreads across my face.
My laptop rocks even though its old, large, and heavy.

A side note, I do try avoid weak or small children-though the large, fat spoiled ones are subject to 'The BAG'
