While sitting on the tube

[MyBlueFinch]

What have you observed while sitting on the tube.
I have seen people applying full make up, a mother using her saliva to wipe her child's face, a large dog sitting upright on a seat, back pack placed on a seat etc

I do my full make up on the tube regularly! I don’t actually think I’d blink twice at any of the things you’ve described, although understand some people wouldn’t like a dog sitting directly on a seat. Would love to see some more unusual things to add some excitement to my commute!

I apply full make up on the tube too.

a lot of your worst things imply hygiene standards that are well in excess of what you can expect from the tube!

the worst I’ve seen are assaults.

Someone with a mannequin. Proper full size shop window dummy. Luckily not taking up a seat.

I don't look at anyone it's the law. However the other day a women attached those huge elastic bands to the poles to do exercises. She got some looks.

In December, an older man in a v posh Santa outfit, probably on the way to an event or job. Most convincing Santa I’ve ever seen!

I once saw a man with a huge beetle walking down his leg.

I was young and I got off on the next stop because I assumed it was a cockroach. It was so long ago the memory is fading now!

I think I might have seen Prince Harry once. Many years ago. A young man with red hair, baseball cap pulled well down, looking down and not making eye contact with anyone. I couldn't spot anyone who looked like they might be his protection officer, though.

I think there could be genuine little green aliens travelling on the Tube and no-one would bat an eyelid.

A woman leant forward and vomited on the floor, but it splashed all over my friends shoes and trousers.

I can't stand people begging on the tube and even worse when they are playing an accordion or fiddle then the other ones go around shaking a cup.

Most people wouldn’t like a dog on a seat. Me included.

Yuk, a dog on a tube seat - really inconsiderate.

Mums have been cleaning faces with saliva since time began.

I don’t like the makeup thing though as it usually smells and they bump their elbows into you if sat beside them

Dog 🤢

Bag 🤬

I normally play solitaire on my phone

Two men in suits having a punch up at 8am because one accused the other of shoving him.🙄

A penis.
A delightful man sat opposite, rummage about down his waistband, then popped his lad out.
Incredible control, he was moving it horizontally.
I was so cross, I said that he was disgusting and got off.
It was about 35 years ago. Well before mobile phones

Clipping toenails 🤢🤮

One woman decided a crowded airless central line tube was the perfect place to PAINT. HER. NAILS.

I used to be adept at applying eyeliner standing up on the tube.

Ex colleague of mine painted her finger nails on the tube. No shame.

Just dreadful stench for the entire carriage!

A man wanking once.

You’ve seen a backpack placed in a seat?!?!

Holy shit OP! Don’t think anyone will be able to top that.

Docklands light railway - we were on the train and at one stop a pigeon hopped on. It stood quietly near the door until the next stop and then hopped off again.😁

She’s now a lawyer. Very entitled.

I take it you are not a regular user of the tube? These are all pretty much everyday occurrences ime.

I was on a late night bus when some girl was climbing over the seat behind mine.
I looked down and saw that some drunk guy had vomited all over the floor.

I love watching pigeon commuters.
