In NYC for the first time and OMG public transportation is a hoot.
Already have had 2 weird encounters
#1 A crazy African american lady talking loudly to herself about how whites and blacks shouldn't mix, they can live in the same city but they shouldn't be rough ridin' because thats just not right.
#2 Two mid 20's people, 1 girl 1 guy sitting next to each other. No idea how it started but they start yelling at each other calling each other really mean names. This goes on for about 20 seconds when she feels to need to announce she is "being harassed on the subway" and they argue back and forth some more. Finally a random guy standing on the subway was like "hey, there is an open seat over here, just move"
She moved and they continued yelling at each other from across the subway car...it reminded me of 2 children fighting.
