FLOSSERS - The (usually) guys who whip out the floss and go to work. Little white, brown and yellow things flick out of their mouths, so watch out. THEN, they take the floss out of their mouth, examine it, then appear to suck the food that is still attached, and presumably eat it again. Beyond disgusting and you have to watch out for flying food specs.

There should be a rule that, once a thread reaches 10 pages, the next poster starts a new one. Took me forever to get tthis far. A new personal patience record for me.

How about popping your partner's pimples in the train?








Tipster Farah Visslailli encountered two such enemies while riding the N train around 8:30 p.m. Wednesday from Union Square to Brooklyn: "[i] had the pleasure of staring at this loving couple for the ENTIRE ride," she told us. "I've seen a lot of nasty stuff on the subway, but this is a first. She was going to town, popping his face/neck pimples for almost the whole ride. It wasn't just one-sided though, he reciprocated by going after a few on her forehead. How nice."

Bring a newspaper, book etc. I do this just to keep myself occupied. The staring by the majority of people is due due to the fact of being in a metal tube for extended periods of time. Usually there is nothing else to do, Or someone is simply curious or attracted to you. If really bothered for any reason, Changing cars at the next station is an option. Easy.

Popping pimpled on the train, my goodness! I've seen toe nail clippers being used on the train before. This seems like a trend because I've witnessed this happen a few times this week. Strangers wanting to 'borrow' your phone just to make frivolous calls. One individual even asked me, 'well, why not..come on'..

Every time I enter the train, mid-way in my journey and when leaving the train, I have to double check that I have my wallet and cell phone on me. I always feel like someone is going to pick pocket me on the subway, why is that?

It's not a bad habit. I do that too, nothing wrong with double checking. I check for wallet, phone and keys. I do this not only on the train, but coming out of home, exiting work, at the mall, at the park. Sheeyit
