If someone eating food on a public train bothers you, then its time for you to drive your car or take a damn taxi to where you need to go.

^ I completely disagree. People treat the subway like their living room/kitchen/bathroom and I find it not only disgusting, but inappropriate. I cannot stand when people eat (especially smelly) food on the subway and I do not want to hear/see them clipping their nails, putting on your make-up or hear the movie on their iPad at full volume. The subway is not their house/apartment - it's a space that must be shared by thousands of people; consideration for others would be nice.

as an ex-smoker who has been on public transpo. let me say this, people wold complain about the smell of smoke, and try to make a smoker feel like shit, but i ask, who tell those bad breathded (that's right BREATHDED) mothafukkas to go get an altoid before they get in yo face complainin. or you galic eattin gas passin sweaty ass bad nerve havin can't cover it up with enough smell-good too much aftershave not enough soap and water usin yadda yadda blah blah whutevahwhutevahs... the point is, GOD forbid i gotta ride public, BUT IF I DO and i'm hungrgy enough, i'm gonna eat. public transpo, is for the public, that include all types. some folks can't afford to live like me, not fortunate to be able to wash they ass before catchin a train. hungry and just found some food they could eat. GOD BLESS THEM!!! but for the Grace Of GOD, could be you. i hope somebody puts a quarter in the meter for yoou one day, or a token in the turnstile, so i can once hear you speak about THE MILK OF HUMAN KINDNESS... til then you complainers can go mutilate your orafices (sp) i am KING BAD!!!

How YOU feel about it is besides the point since you can not force someone to put away their smelly food without causing drama. You can not impose your manners and standards on other people, no matter how disgusted you may be by their actions. Its their business of how they conduct themselves, it is best to tune them out.
Its not against the law... now, if its a guy pulling his dick out, or some jerk putting his hands on you or threatening you, then this is an entirely different matter. You can take action and the law is on your side in those circumstances.
The laws are what they are, like it or not people can eat on the train, and if that bothers anyone, it is best they seek a more private form of transportation.

<---much less likely to get in an argument over someone pulling their dick out next to me than shovin pasta in their face. | |

Jone70 does have a point though because I remember seeing a drug addicted older woman pull her teeth out her mouth, shake off a wad of spit off the dentures then she stuck them in her bra.

Yeah, unfortunately I'd feel like I couldn't say anything, which is problematic in and of itself if you think about it. (Side note -- I have had people sit down next to me and start chowing on bagel w/onion cream cheese - the smell was making me gag; so I had to move. Why should I have to give up my seat or risk being sick?) As a society we shouldn't be afraid to ask someone else to stop doing something that interferes with another's right (to have a quiet, smell-free, nail-clipping free ride, for example) or that is just common courtesy. I don't really see it as imposing MY manners or standards; I consider it good manners in general to not eat on the train, or in various other places (church might be another example). The subway is not a restaurant, nor an extension of one's residence. I agree that it might be their business, however when someone else's "business" interferes with my rights, then what does one do? I can kind of see both sides -- I totally get if people HAVE to eat b/c they're diabetic or they only have their subway ride between working two jobs, but why chose the smelly, messy food? Why not choose to eat something that has less of a chance of being spilled (cause I'm sure everyone who spills food on the subway cleans up after themselves
I know that Chocolate1 posted the MTA regulations, but I'm not so sure food isn't prohibited on the subway. I feel like on the buses it says "No food or drink, no littering, no radio playing." I've actually been on a bus where the bus driver enforced the no food/drink!

I understand that completely! Smelly food is gross anywhere. I got that way at the job too.
This is when I wish I could fart on command. You are nice to move.... a nagging phlegmy cough will usually make someone move, or blowing your nose and digging up your nose with the tissue in an ignorant way. Fake sneezes are great to do in those situations.
I tend to get a kick out of annoying people without saying one word. I am a weirdo like that.
I don't think I'll watch another homeless dude jerk off though... especially if he reeks of ammonia

That's a little extreme, I'd just move to another car. No need to give up on the entire subway system because random smelly people bother me. Moving to another car is obviously what the older woman in the video should have done. It's not like people are eating everywhere in the subway.

Absolutely. Talking smack on the subway is risky business - you don't know what the other person is capable of. Mfers get sliced or stabbed over shit like this.
I don't how folks can eat on the smelly subways. That would make me sick.
Only times I give people dirty looks is when these fucktards drink coffee near me. If that shit spills...... | |

But if you have to do ALL that then its too much of a bother IMO. Heck, what if you do all this moving to then have some jerk sit next to you smelling like piss and whiskey?

And No,
Heck, I don't even know if they are homelss (probably just sick/mental issues).... but dude did look pretty bad. God bless him. | |

I ride the NY subway multiple times every day. I don't encounter people who eat or smell bad all that often. If I have to change cars once a month, it's not that big a deal and not worth abandoning the subway altogether. | |

Yeah, but you don't fly off the handle like Ms. Thang in the video did either. | |

If that's what you meant by 'bother' then yes, she needs to stay out of the subway. Her mouth will just get her in more fights if she doesn't learn to bite her tongue. | |

Her mouth might get her killed if she flaps her gums to the wrong person. | |

you know, if people would be respectful they wouldn't get the 'payback' part of life. no-one has the right to do violence however sometimes GOD decides not to like the way some people look down their noses at others... go 'head say it.
