June 3rd, 2011 - By Khadija Allen


You might rely on public transportation as an accessible, cheaper means of getting around. Others find that it saves them from driving a vehicle that consumes gas and fighting highway traffic. However, for those who have witnessed irregularities with public transportation can agree that there are just some issues you simply can’t ignore: the persistent staring, consistently bad odors, or rude behavior constitute as major distractions. Here are a few over-the-top sightings you wish you could avoid at all costs:

    i can't stand the sneezing without covering one's mouth (spit flying everywhere) and farting especially a silent deadly one that fumigates the whole train car.

    If I can help it, I'd rather walk then use public transportation. Now a days, a person can't even take a cab, especially if they're drunk. HINT: NYPD officers acquitted for raping a drunk woman. Bastards!!!

    look! I never like to use the public transportation/ why because anything public is always a disguise.

    Crack smells like powdered sugar and burning hair. I hate super chatty people on the train at 6 am. That early in the morning I really don’t want to talk.

  • Everything is terrible

    I can tolerate every one of these except the second one. Bad odors are the worst part of using public transportation. People passing gas, some smell like they bathed in the sewer. Its awful.
