Invisible Motorbikes on the Tube

Wow. Traffic congestion must be really bad. This guy is riding his invisible motorbike on the Tube! Well, what other reason does he have for splaying his legs so widely across a seat meant for two people? It’s certainly not because he is blessed anatomically, because – look! – there’s nothing there!

Some guys are just rude and love to take up the whole seat. I took this photo after the other passenger had vacated the seat, but let me assure you, our friend Legs Akimbo here didn’t adjust his posture to let the other guy sit down comfortably.

Thanks for the recent comments, readers. I’ll keep my eyes peeled for more incidents of extremely bad manners on the London Underground and update you forthwith.

Chubby Checkin’ Out or Great Expectorations

Welcome to the new blog about people who make your journey into work a misery.

First up, here is a photo I took this morning of the guy sat opposite me on the Metropolitan line. When I took my seat he had placed his bag in the space next to him. Unfortunately for him, he had to move said bag to his capacious lap when other people boarded and this poor girl erroneously chose to sit next to him.

The girl was trying to read a book, perched most precariously on the edge of what was left of the seat. This is supposed to be a seat which can fit 2 passengers on it, but our man did not agree with this idea.

As you can see, not only is he fast asleep, but he was also drooling and snoring loudly. I amused myself by clapping loudly in his face to try and wake him. This worked once. Then I decided to take his picture, and as you can see he did not even bat an eyelid.
