woman listening to My Heart Will Go On and flossing teeth on the train

I sat behind a woman on the train home yesterday. Her music was turned up too loud which was a bit irritating especially as it was Celine Dion, MHWGO. Then when the song finished, she listened to it again... and again. In the end I heard that bloody song 11 times before I got off the train. And it was LOUD enough to hear every word.

Also, at one point, she began to quite loudly floss her teeth. AIBU to think that's really quite odd?

Wtf???

Mollified · 26/02/2014 12:53

Actually this is one of the few times I have laughed at AIBU.

Of course she was very odd

spanky2 · 26/02/2014 12:53

That cheered me up! Grin

UnicornCrisps · 26/02/2014 12:54

Strange!

BumpButAlsoGrind · 26/02/2014 12:56

Celine Dion?!

Surely this is an attempt at Suicide by Disgruntled Commuter. She's even holding a handy garrote.

You should have spread your arms out behind her and joined in the song.

Then garroted her with the floss...

Anonymai · 26/02/2014 12:57

Flossing her teeth?! That is rank. I hate public transport.

If I ever see her again (she might do the same commute every day) I will DEFINITELY join in. Sod what everyone else in the carriage thinks. That has really made me laugh.

Near, Far, - wherever you are, - always pull the emergency cord if someone is listening to Celine Dion.

How can you floss teeth loudly?

I'd have strung her up with the floss.

FrankelInFoal · 26/02/2014 13:11

You weren't the subject of a hidden camera show ("Commuters Gone Mad") were you? Wink

farewellfigure · 26/02/2014 13:12

The floss was making a sort of ping scrape noise as it came out of her teeth.

Annoyingly I now have the song in my head. I should never have posted this. It's driving me mad.

Flossing in public is disgusting.

ohhifruit · 26/02/2014 14:29

Was she flossing her teeth with Celine Dion?

SantanaLopez · 26/02/2014 14:30

I'm sorry but I burst out laughing at your title. That's awful.

farewellfigure · 26/02/2014 14:56

I had visions of bits of sandwich or whatever pinging round the train.
