Crazy things that I've seen in the BART (Bay Area Rapid Transit)

BART is the train I use for all my commuting to San Francisco. I love it! I hate it! I can't survive without it. I get a lot of work, reading, writing, calls, done during transit. At the same time the 50 min. each way commute can be tedious, especially if one is going to be in SF for a short time.

Anyways these are the craziest things that I have experienced in BART:

#3 This dude gets on the train and falls asleep after figuring out that he has the last stop. We get to the last stop. He doesn't wake up. People around him try to wake him up but give up. He continues to sleep as the train heads back where it came from. Wonder where he woke up!

#2 This guy keeps looking at me and finally asks me if I have a boyfriend. I tell him that I am married. He gets worked up and upset at me for not keeping my ring more VISIBLE!

#1 This one is the WORST! This girl sitting across the aisle, suddenly comes to the old lady and starts screaming at her, asking her not to stare at her. The old lady is disoriented and she says "I wasn't even looking at you." This girl takes it to a WHOLE new level. She's says "I am not a lesbian. Don't look at me." She says this like 5 times. Another lady says, "hey relax! You are a pretty girl. Its OK." This girl goes CRAZY and starts cussing the lady, saying "I know you wish you could get with me." She just trips out. It was a little bit scary, a little bit icky (she was so homophobic), a little bit pathetic.

These are just 3 incidents that I was thinking about. There have been so many more. Public transport can make for interesting blog entries, never knew that before.
