My observation
Recently when I was waiting for my bus I saw something I haven't noticed before. People who were standing there too were already lined up in an exact place their bus would arrive. There was no sign if it was going to show up at the start of the stop, the middle or the end. I just think that after a few times those people saw it appear there, they learned where to stand and wait for it. That's nothing strange - it's comfortable and makes perfect sense to just quickly get in instead of walking from afar first.
This observation, even though it's very simple and not weird, made me think about how stiff we are as a society. It's enough that we do something a couple of times, we get used to it and it becomes normal for us. It actually makes us so easy to manipulate! We could just hear something a few times and then we would automatically do it.
