This lady sits next to me on the train...and she smells like moth balls. ALL THE TIME! no joke. Whateva..I ignore it bc sometimes stinky people cant help it.
THEN she pulls out a nail clipper and starts clipping her fingernails and she like throws them on the floor. ewwwww
So when she switched to the hand nearest me (her left) I said something. Nicely I lean over and said, 'Excuse me but you realize this is not your bathroom it is a public train, right? I think it is really disgusting and unsanitary what you are doing.' She looked at me with this blank look like she couldnt believe I said something and then got up and asked to sit next to someone else..
I was so not risking getting a fingernail shot at me. I wanted that lady to leave!
GOD some people are just ridiculous! ahhh now I feel better!

Newsday has a column now where you can write in stories about how rude or nice people are on the LIRR. Just today there was a comment about people taking care of personal hygeine aboard the train. I've had that happen too and have said something.

It was sooooooooooooooo gross i wanted to puke and he would do it while he was on the phone with cutomers and saw absolutely nothing worng with it----YUCK!!
