People who do that shit piss me off.

They should be damned to wait for the train to hell for all eternity.

I've gotten into arguments about people constantly talking on the quiet car.

I swear I almost dumped a drink on this couple as I left.

They were so obnoxious, loudly having a convo the entire time. I tried the nice way and asked them to keep their voice low, but it always escalated. Then when I told the ticket collector- she basically did nothing but warn them- and they continued for the next 2 hours.

You know what a funny thing to do is?

Go sit near them, get out your cell phone and pretend you are relaying their entire conversation to someone over the phone, like you're giving a play by play. "Now she's saying .... to him. He said ....."

I got bitched out last month because I didn't give my seat up to a pregnant woman.

1)I didn't even see her because I was reading my book and listening to music the entire commute in. I was in my own little world like every other person on the train.

2)She was skinny pregnant and wearing a flowing dress. So even when she confronted my(about 8 stops after she got on btw)I couldn't even tell. If she had asked me right after she got on instead of waiting the whole trip I would have given my seat up. I'm not a jerk.

3)She signaled me out because I am really harmless looking. The 130 pound, glasses wearing, youngish looking guy is a lot easy to bitch out opposed to the 100 hundred other people on the train.

Long story short she picked on me we got into a fight(she sort of implied I'd never get a girlfriend) and I ended up looking like the bad guy because I was arguing with a pregnant woman. I got off the train early before I said anything really bad.

I took pictures of them with my cell. That seemed to really tick the lady off. "Look, he's taking pictures of us (sigh) !"

It was really all I could do, beside pretending to accidentally spill my drink on them as I left. Shoulda done that.

try the phone bit, and when they say something to you look appalled at their interruption and say "I'm having a private conversation!"

their argument to me was "We're allowed to talk quietly" but they WEREN'T and it carried on the whole ride. In my younger years there would have been more of a confrontation.
