Yesterday I was on the tube on my way to work, reading my kindle and minding my own business, when I noticed a cloud of white dust particles settling on my black coat and trousers.

Looking up, I realised the origin of this dust cloud was a woman standing over me in the crowded carriage and vigourously filing her nails.

When I looked aghast and brushed myself down, she turned away from me but continued regardless.

AIBU to think no nail care situation is this urgent? I've no issue with people doing their make up when seated etc, but I do have some reservations about being covered in their bodily detritus!

I was also wanker over on a train. I mean his "emissions" didn't touch me but he stood up behind me so he could look down my top as he wanked. Other people had clearly noticed before me and nobody did anything. I was 17.

These stories make me feel so happy that public transport especially buses will be a thing of the past!

I've never experienced anything majorly grim, but I did have a man sit next to me and offer me a fiver for sex. I was so shocked I got up and walked away! I wish i had called him out publically now. Dirty pervert Angry

I got wank all down the back of my fave work trousers on a packed Victoria line commute once. Pretty gross. I didnt realise what was going on & put my hand right in it 🤢
So nail filings I’m pretty ambivalent about.
