Sorry, but the city vs city room is for comparisons between two or more places or things only. City-specific topics need to be in the room of the city you're talking about. Moving to the appropriate area.

Ah, well, crazy crackheads on the train are a dime a dozen. Atlanta has more interesting street personalities who may or may not be on drugs. There is:

Baton Bob
Baton Bob - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Angel Poventud, the public transportation activist who frequently rides his bicycle around Midtown Atlanta in a green dress. He is a man.

Prince Daweed. You can learn more about him at the above link.

The mute street preacher at Five Points. That is not a typo.

And of course, Bicycle Shorts Man. Despite his clothing, I actually spoke to him once and he's a pretty cool dude. He is a former hippie and now is just kind of bohemian who occasionally paints to pass the time. He also has the best street sign in America. Period:Mod cut: copyright violation

I don't see these people as a source of humor. It's just sad and maybe a reflection of how some have pretty much lost their minds in these "interesting times."

Yes, it does help. I laughed too, to be quite honest. While adults will often sit there keeping a straight face while praying for their next stop, kids will keep it real.

Yeah in NYC we have that NY attitude, and we are not scared of anything. The craziest people can be found at NYC.

And people like that come a dime a dozen. We had transsexual prostitutes in Waco.(Remember this is suppose to very religious and conservative small town.) We had this weird liberal who would talk about crazy stuff at random grocery stores, one dude who would stand on one corner in downtown and just wave, and more. Sometimes we'd have dudes who walked around neighborhoods naked.
