Your Drunk/High People on Public Transport Stories

[Watershed]

So I was on public transportation earlier today, both bus and train, and had the unfortunate experience of being around both drunk people and people clearly hopped up on something other than weed.

One set of drunks were just talking way too loud and convinced that everything they were saying to each other was hilarious.

The couple who were tripping were rambling from one offensive statement to the next. One minute talking about perverse lesbianism, then talking about Muslims beheading people, then Cubans who can't be trusted.

What are your crazy people on the bus/train stories?

Umm, well a few days ago at the train station by my job this homeless dude just straight up took a dump and the turds were just sitting there festering in the heat. You could smell his chocolate surprises from across the station

Watched a drunk guy on one of the busiest lines in Tokyo projectile vomit all over a complete row of people. No one said anything. They all silently filed off at the next station.

Nothing too out there. Dressed up as The Question for NYCC and on the subway ride home a guy who was clearly out of it was really, really worried about my face. He came up to my friend to ask if it was an accident or illness. We managed to calm him down and assure him it was a costume.

My worst experiences on public transport have all been with people who were probably sober.

I have an interesting one. The person wasn't on drugs but he was just loudly talking about doing drugs. He was talking to his mother on his cell phone about abusing "subbies" (suboxone, an opioid). It was surreal.

Was in a relatively empty car on the T in Boston heading home with my wife. Drunk guy, by himself, throws up into his own hand and all over his own body, all while trying to cover it up like he wasn't doing that. We got off at the next stop and switched train cars (along with the few others that weren't this guy) and left the dude by himself.

A white guy and arab guy almost got in a fight.

The white guy kept insulting the arab guy by calling him a "white boy" and randomly making negative comments about white people.

The arab guy stared at him wide eyed for like 20 minutes without blinking for whatever reason.

Seems like they were both on drugs.

I would say this makes no sense but then again he was drunk. But still wtf. How can someone forget they are white when they are drunk.

I was at a bus terminal once and a guy on I don't know what staggered in and offered everyone inside his ham sandwich.

When no one took him up on his offer he got pissed and stormed out, cursing about the damn ingrates who weren't willing to ingest strange ham.

I live in NYC so I've seen tons of weird shit on the subway. A couple of really weird ones:

-Saw a group of drunk people walk in with two of those flat boxes of donuts. The ones where they lay them out, Krispy Kreme style. They ate like 4 and then put the rest on the floor of the subway. Then must have forgotten about them and got off like two stops later. This big dude gets on at that stop and sits down and accidentally kicks one of the boxes of donuts. Looks under the bench and finds them. He's drunk, so he basically realizes he found gold. Proceeds to absolutely crush about 15 donuts, I've never seen anything like it. He just houses them. Gets off like 4 stops later like nothing happened, empty donut boxes on the bench seat. I guess he had no problem eating leftover subway donuts.

-Saw some drunk dude realize he was on the northbound side of the tracks but he had to be on the southbound. Rather than going above ground, paying the subway fee again, and getting on the correct side he decides to run across the tracks. All four sets of them. Before anyone could say anything he jumps off the platform, runs across the two sets of tracks, pauses at the middle (everyone is yelling at him to stop) and then makes it across the last two, stepping on the wood covering the third rail each time. He then hoists himself up to the platform on the other side with some help from the stunned people waiting. I have no idea how he didn't die.

When I was in college my city started running free electric busses in a circuit around the downtown area - small busses, they sat maybe 20 people at a time if that. Which wasn't a problem because their route was small, and several ran at a time. My campus was along their route. This happened on the third or fourth day they were in service.

I boarded in the afternoon for a late lunch, along with several other students, some business types, and a slovenly-looking guy that seemed out of place. He sits next to me reeking of booze - my guess was cheap gas station wine. Maybe some Wiley Riley or that Mad Dog twenty twen. A few minutes later, out of nowhere, he projectile vomits clear across the small aisle onto the unoccupied seat in front of him. It doesn't even splash - it was all gooey.

The other passengers part like the Red Sea. The driver stops, pops open the doors, and everyone exits (the little busses had two doors, one on either side, front and rear). As I was stepping off I heard the driver mutter "not again". Not even a week running and the poor driver had to clean up drunk puke twice.

I have also been offered sandwiches by random drunks and homeless people.

Seems like Runescape based its events off of truth.

Coming back from a baseball game, a guy was yelling at his "friend" for looking up something on the internet. Kept repeating "how dare you, i wanted your opinion, not someone else's!"

Turned out to be a debate on the best car chase scenes on film.

This one time a guy got on the bus who was clearly high on something. He started yelling incoherently at the bus driver than took his seat at the back of the bus. Then he starts headbanging like he's rocking out to the greatest song ever only he wasn't listening to anything. After this he took out his phone and blasted porn throughout the entire bus. No one knew what to do but I was just laughing my ass off.

Guy got out at the university with me but don't know where he went after that. I would have loved to see what kind of stupidity he tried to pull in his lecture.

Fuck. There's too many. Once had some super drunk racist start talking to me because of my Slipknot shirt. I heard about how he's been in the hospital because he tried to kill himself and then made some racist comments about some Middle Eastern family, and I'm pretty sure a black guy too. He reeked of beer. I was in my early teens....
