What's the strangest thing you have seen in your commute ?

This morning there was a woman eating a bowl of cereal.
On the bus.

Last week, I sat next to a woman eating a bowl of soup.

The people who clip their finger nails also skeeve me out.

This morning I saw a homeless man in penn station on the escalotor with his pants around his ankles and no underwear on. It was a lovely site. I felt bad for the woman right behind him.

The people who clip their nails are gross.

I have sat next to people who just burp the whole ride.

A couple weeks ago I went into the waiting area to find a man sprawled out on the floor, drunk. The police came a few minutes later and sent for drug sniffing dogs.

There is a woman on my train every morning who does ALL her makeup on the train. I think that mostly annoys me because at that point I've already been on the train for 45 minutes and had my makeup on before I left the house.

A few years ago when I was headed to work one morning traffic was completely stopped on the Wantagh Pkwy N where it goes from 2 lanes into 1 right where it merges with the Northern headed West. While we were stopped there 2 guys next to each other in the lanes started screaming at each other, I forget what started it all. When the traffic started to open up the guy in the left lane jumped out of his car, ran over to the guy in the right lane, reached into his window and grabbed his glasses off his face, threw them over the wall onto the Wantagh Pkwy South, got into his car and took off, leaving the other guy unable to drive since he couldn't see properly. I still can't believe that happened. Who does that? What could the guy have possibly done or said to make someone that angry?

While waiting for the downtown 6 train one day, I saw a man in his 50's get on the downtown train, walk across the train to the closed door and press his lips, tongue and nose against the glass. It wasn't for anyones benefit, because I don't even think he saw people across the platform. Apparently he wanted to die from the germs on the subway.

Also, one morning a woman was painting her nails on the LIRR train to Penn. Why thank you, that's exactly what I wanted to smell while eating my breakfast.

While driving on Sunrise Hwy a guy was driving with no hands...with his arms up and behind his headrest like he was relaxing in a chair...he was like this for a mile or two and even "steered" no hands onto the off ramp

Re: What's the strangest thing you have seen in your commute ?

SO many things.

I saw a guy once pull his d!ck out, ask who wants to make him come in less than 20 seconds, and then start to JO about a half an hour later.

I saw some guy dressed up as an ape.

I saw a girl once eat a bucket of Fried Chicken.

Not "strange", but definitely crazy!

A fist fight between two HUGE guys on the "E'" train while running express through Queens. Can you say trapped?!

A woman coming up to my MIL on the 7 train and telling her "YOU HAVE NO DAUGHTERS" then trying to punch her in the face. MIL blocked it and DH shoved the woman. (My MIL does in fact have no daughters, so strange....)

A woman at Grand Central shoved me off the 4 train while I was 8 months pregnant because she felt I pushed her while she was trying to get on the train. There were like 30 people exiting from my door, including me and she was annoyed that everyone was exiting while she was trying to get on the train

On the J train, on my way to Baruch, a guy got on dressed as a HORSE!! He had his legs through this felt horse costume (tail behind him, head in front of him). He was galloping along the cars beatboxing and rapping "Spare some change? Psss Bbbbb, Bbbbb" "Have a dollar? prrrrbb, bbbbb, rrrrbbbbb Neigh Neigh!"

on the train once two men having sex in between the cars (not that i have issues with it just very jarring when your half sober and run into that)

Re: What's the strangest thing you have seen in your commute ?

This doesn't really compare, but I've seen someone with a cigarette in one hand, a cellphone in another, and the steering wheel in neither.

Re: What's the strangest thing you have seen in your commute ?

I'm just laughing at some of these.

The Horse man..nail clippers, nail filers, nose pickers, smelly food eaters, making massage appointments, giving out personal information for the whole train to hear. The list goes on and on.

Today a woman got on the 1 train on crutches with her leg in a cast. She sat down. She had no walking cast or bootie or sock on the foot. Her toes were completely exposed.

She hobbled her way up the stairs! Once step at a time hopping.

Take a cab lady!
