McDonalds also is a great food to stink up a plane. Pretty much every airport has one.

It's not quite on the same level but I bought an ice cream sandwich at the middle school cafeteria one day and the class bully ate it when my back was turned.

gently caress you, Boomer.

I think we can all agree that food thieves, as the youths would say, 'hit different'. Also Boomer DOES need to get hosed.

Train-adjacent but I mean look, there is a non-zero chance of a person who isn't all there coming forth to snatch your food that you're holding and scarf it down because they've been on the streets forever and haven't had decent fare in god knows how long. And what can you possibly do to someone who does not give a poo poo about the consequences anymore? You just have to sit there and take the advice of the bus driver and let it go while they tell the guy to get off the bus.

Years later I understand why someone would do that, but man I still feel a bit raw about it; being a minor working at Publix means that sub was a decent chunk of wages. I didn't even open it, he just yoinked and tore into it. Should've put it in my backpack.

But yeah that can happpen :(

This has happened to me. In West Africa the local "fou" (crazy person) just reached over my shoulder and grabbed a huge crusty handful of rice and meat. Startling, but what can you do but laugh.

I have zero in the way of spite for that person. However, some guy drunkenly scarfing down hard tacos on friday afternoon can go screw.

Its especially bad when youve got an event that uses the trains more. You get the broken window effect. One person throws their beer can on the ground and before you know it the entire transit system looks like a post college tailgate disaster. Disgusting. Most of these folks only use the train but two or three times a year and have no idea of ownership or responsibility.

One tends to forget that public transportation in other countries isn’t primarily used by derelicts.

I refuse to believe this. Everybody on public transportation has been banned from Uber for their bizarre and unsanitary schizophrenic behavior, worldwide. Public transportation is for monsters. That is to say, I have a phobia of public transportation. You know they just let anyone on, right?

This is one of those rare LA-is-good things. The weather is nice enough that homeless derelicts don't generally take refuge on the train. There's the odd beggar, and it gets worse later at night, but that's it.

I once got on a bus holding a bunch of nut mix loose in one hand as I paid the fare. It was like 5am so maybe the driver didn't give a poo poo enough to reprimand me, I was like one out of 4 passengers though

It may not be the most disgusting but I think the point is it's one of the more controllable. Like the homeless guy is gonna smell like cigarettes and BO and the lady with vagina issues during her period is gonna smell like fish but those are a little harder to control.
