Someone who stands on an escalator or moving sidewalk. Standards tend to be lazy, or perhaps older individuals.
Standers obstruct the movements of people who have places to go and stuff to do. Standards are particularly annoying when standing in the middle of escalators/moving sidewalks, such that walkers cannot easily pass and move on with their lives.

One who bends their legs backwards in a locked position when standing straight up. Their legs are not bent all the way, it is bent enough to see a slight curve in the leg. It is not known what causes this phenomenon, but looks very messed up.
When a person is standing straight up and locks their legs. With most people, they lock in a straight-up position. With backwards standers, the leg is bent backwards farther than any leg should go.
