Smelled Like Piss. But I Was Trapped.
April 1, 2008
Walked into a train during rush hour this afternoon and ended up standing too-close-for-comfort to a stinky-ass homeless dude. He was sitting a few feet away from my position, just stinking up the joint and peeling an orange (which clung-to and accentuated — rather than masked – his foul odor.)
I hadn’t realized I was walking into a stink-fest until I was already packed into place… The smell hit me about the same time as I noticed a girl sitting below me covering her nose with her scarf.
Fortunately, I only had to ride for a few stops with this menace… And hopefully I didn’t get sick sniffing-in whatever god-awful disease molecules were spreading off his wretched clothing, hair and body…
What really bothered me most though may have that some people were actually sitting right next to him. As if there wasn’t some crazy stinky ass filthy homeless guy sitting right next to them.
I’m telling you, you’d NEVER catch the Angry Subway Guy sitting anywhere near one of those mofos. You’d better believe that I’d get up toot-fast… And if I wasn’t trapped this afternoon with only three stops to my destination, I certainly would’ve tried to hop into another car first chance I got.
Stinky bastards…

Yes it was on the 6 train uptown but much later, more like 6. Moral of the story is that this wasn’t the first time (and won’t be the last) for either of us…
I’ve given a lot of thought to this last post and sincerely regret not having posting about foul odors before it…
Stinky ass bastards… The summer will surely be filled with more stink-oriented posts, for sure.

I fucking HATE the 6 train. EVERY time I get on it, I’m side-stepping a pool of urine and trying not breathe the few stops I have to ride it.
