If I am taking up two seats then people standing are entitled to use my head as a book rest. When I am sitting in a single seat I would appreciate it if people did not touch me. Standing on a bus or a train is not always easy, but if you cannot read the paper without hitting/brushing other people then put it away. If you continuously bash me with your paper and leave pages hanging an inch in front of my face, then don't be surprised when I react with annoyance and am less than polite when asking you to cease your anti-social behaviour.
Accidents will happen but it is the persistence of some people in their anti-social behaviour that annoys me. However, I usually find that headbutting their paper and stretching usually makes it difficult enough for them to read that they move their paper.
