Do People Have No Shame on the Subways Anymore?

I take the subway at least twice a week, sometimes more.
And I have seen some crazy stuff.

The guy who picked his nose and ate it was nothing unusual.

The guy who picked his nose and wiped it on the pole made me thank G-d for Purell! (Or my Bath & Body Works foaming anti-bacterial hand stuff...Yeah, I know I'm such a jap)

The woman who started cleaning out her boyfriend's ears, and might have given him an injection (I couldn't see; she was doing something to his back) made me lose my appetite for a little while.

What took the cake was the woman who poured Pepsi and some powder (?!) into a feeding tube that was attached to her navel and proceeded to "feed" herself, while unsuspected strangers who sat next to her kindly held her soda can.

She then offered some chocolate to a guy's kids, who, from what I understood, had seen her on the train before. And the guy let them take it!!!!

I got so white and pasty, I almost fainted.

That's why we have magazines, people!
