spotted

Spotted:  One super creepy kid (teenage) who rides the train with his parents and sits unreasonably close to other people with his super creepy extra-long fingernails.  Said individual is oblivious to other passengers trying to avoid excessive contact with strangers on the train and only leans in further when said passenger tries to move away.  Weird teen seems to see other people as pieces of furniture, and not as strangers that should not be touched if possible.


Spotted:  One older, balding, uber-curly haired man with the general look of a computer programmer from 1995 talking very loudly on his cell phone at a crowded bus stop.  Snippet of conversation overheard: "well, she's...I don't want to say promiscuous (icky chuckle) but... she's 'free'."  Several passengers standing around said individual seen sharing looks and raised eyebrows at said man's choice of location for his very public conversation.  Man seemed rather dirty and creepy to be talking in such a judgy manner about other people (this author totally realizes the hypocrisy of judging people for being judgy, and she's surprisingly ok with it).



Spotted:  One body building, quite probably roided up (based on the strange hair growth and body acne) wearing a shirt that says "The police just pulled me over for carrying these guns" with arrows pointing to his arms.  The sleeves of this gentleman's shirt were cut off so that it was more of a muscle shirt exposing an amount of chest that could be described as overly intimate at best when one is in a situation where it's possible one will have to touch other people.  Skin on skin contact is to be avoided at all costs (unless you're carrying around "guns", apparently).  Man blasting "Billie Jean" on his iPod and other passengers spotted avoiding eye contact at all costs to avoid laughing.


It's been a good couple of weeks on the MBTA. :)
