No they are just stupid and have no considerations for others -_-'
Same with kids who have earphones but volume so high you can hear the lyrics 2 rows away

getting home from the clubs on a monday noon when everyone else is going to work: priceless !

i think my best experience was the following:

i went on the public local train to get home from uni some time around 10pm. after one or two stations a street musician with a guitar boarded the train and everyone went like: not again (there's a lot of them here in berlin and most of em suck except maybe for the russian orchestra musicians ). but then: this guy was awesome. he didn't even go around to collect money right away but played for 2 stations (or 2 songs). he was REALLY good, i think he played some classic from bob marley and then something from götz widmann, a german songwriter who's pure awesomeness.

now the magic happened: there were two other musicians in the train. the one had a contrabass and the other sported a sax. jazz musicians obviously. those guys decided to join the first and they setup a small jam session in the train. it was pure joy. i didn't get off in time but stuck with the guys for an hour or so

other experiences weren't that nice though...

@mike: the worst thing are those pseudogangsterhiphopkids who play shitty RnBish pseudohiphop on their mobile phone speakers...

One time when I was taking the Subway train, this homeless guy got on, but he didn't start asking for money or anything.
He went to the little vestibule space that connects the two train cars, and started to pee off the side of the train.

Just then, the train goes around a curve in the tunnel, so all the pee splashes backward onto the windows of the train.

Im from NYC so i have so many stories i dont even remember them all right now

Here are a few...

- One time while waiting for the A train a wizard in full dress strolled up behind me, stepped in the train and began reading what looked like a magic book.

- I saw and old man shit himself once, which isnt that funny but the reaction of those around him was.

- Another time some street performers came into the train to do there little break dancing thing and they usually are very cocky and macho so these were no different. When he fell on his face and busted his nose the entire train laughed. He got no money.

- A women once walked into the train as the door closed and her shirt got caught in the door and ripped it clear off. Not really that funny but awesome. She was hot.

- Oh i remember another time a kid walked in with he hat out and everyone expected him to tell us he needed money for a sports team or he is homeless or something. He did not, instead he just that he is doing fine financially and didnt play for any team and that he just wanted our money to buy GTA4. I gave him 5 dollars.

Yup, with 24 hour public transportation and over a billion passangers a year, New York has some good stories.

I once remember when the train I was on had to go on a local track because of a disabled train or something, but then we took the wrong route and started going in the opposite direction, and the conductor got on the PA system and said "Uhh, I have no idea where we're going everyone, sorry."
Took us about 45 minutes to get back on track.
No pun intended.

weird drunks that try to talk to you, cough a lot and seem to have something that looks like butter over/in their hands.

nah the byproducts I saw in my rides with buses occasionally would be some drugged up narko sitting on the floor in the middle of the bus and talking with "himself" (he was delusional). Or it would be your ordinary neighborhood though-guy (also high on drugs) shitting about todays youth.
