To think filing nails on public transport is grim?

I can understand makeup. I can't understand why anyone would think it ok to file their nails on a bus or train. The noise. The nail dust going everywhere. Just grim. aibu?

I mean if I'm honest I cranked the music up in my headphones to try and drown out the repeated scrape scrape as my teeth got set on edge. Then she brushed her nail dust off and someone unknowingly sat in it. I wanted to get off!

But as I say, the social contract. I don’t want someone opposite me doing a manicure either! I wouldn’t worry about what happens to the seat once they leave (that’s overthinking to be fair) and you were wearing headphones which is well within the social contract provided they are not those tinny ones!
