...unless you're off your meds.
A female passenger with obvious mental issues was caught on tape breaking CTA's no smoking rule.
The chimney-smoking commuter casually chatted with the voices in her head as the smoke-filled train rolled into several Edgewater neighborhood "L" stops.
Despite the fact that she was smoking in a non-smoking area and talking to herself, I must admit she was one the most well-behaved CTA riders ever caught on film.
Lol. Still really gross! I hate the smell of cigarette smoke. I cant believe no one said anything. Oh wait! Yes I can. People are probably terrified of this lady.
ReplyDeleteMaureen, who knows what that lady had in that coat!
ReplyDeleteI once met a woman who walked around with a dead pigeon in her purse. She said the dead bird was her son. :-(
Wonder what the bacteria counts are on CTA seats? Sometimes I think I need a bio-hazard suit to ride public transportation.
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine sitting on those seats in a short dress or a pair of short pants. That would be like sitting on a public toilet without any protection. Yikes!
ReplyDeleteAs they say on WSHH, she's "goin' in"
ReplyDeleteI stepped into a Red Line train one day thinking how lucky I was that it was so empty. Turned out there was one guy in it, a member of the I Want Cancer Society, smoking like a chimney. I stepped out and ran to the next car.
ReplyDeleteTurned out well for him...he had his nicotine fix and had the whole car to himself!
I stepped on a Red Line train one morning at 5:30am. It obviously had the "hangers on" from the night before. The first one smelled like SH** - horse manure. This 1/2 dead looking thing was sitting towards the back and this black guy gets on walked right over to him and yells "did you SH** in here"??!! So next stop we all jump off and run into the next car. THAT one reeked of WEED! Next stop we all jump off and run into the next car. Finally got a "good" one so we didn't have to go to work smelling of weed or SH**.
ReplyDeleteI'll deal with cigarette smoke anyday.
Not to mention the urine cars on the southwest side Orange Line. Once the Section 8's get on, you might as well get yourself an oxygen mask and oxygen tank so that you can breathe clean air until you arrive in the Loop. This morning the 9:10 AM train completely reeked of urine. Then three black section 8 winos or crackheads guys got off on Roosevelt and the car smelled decent again. Not to mention the the gang banger who crossed over 3 cars because he thought he wasn't going to get caught vandalizing the last car with magic markers and paint sticks. Ghetto trash!
