Default How to annoy people on the subway

Take large objects on the train with you.
Sing songs. Start a round with everyone on the train.
Eat onions and garlic and talk to the people next to you.
Sell stuff.
Stand in front of the doorway and glare at people when they try to get by.
Yell to your friends at the other end of the train.
Make fun of other people while they are in hearing distance of you.
Ride the train while drunk. Extra points if you throw up.
Constantly ask people for directions.
Ask people where they are from.
Ask people where they are going.
Quiz people on the meaning of life.
Start a game of poker. Extra points if it's strip poker.
Start a game of tag. Extra points if it's strip tag.
Start a game of twister.
Use a cell phone. Talk loudly.
Turn your headphones up to 120 decibels and then complain loudly that they just don't make headphones loud enough anymore.
Shake off your umbrella on the people sitting down.
Shake off your hair on the people sitting down.
Ring out your shirt on the people sitting down. Even on days when it's not raining. Make them wonder where it all came from.
Ring out the shirt of the person sitting next to you.
Bring a pet. Preferable a rattlesnake. Without a cage.
Juggle eggs.
Juggle knives.
Don't take a shower for a month.
Stick your feet way out into the aisles when sitting down. Extra points if you're wearing clown shoes.
Tell the people your problems. They really want to know.
Start line dancing. Even when there's no music.
Use the shoulder of the person next to you to take a nap.
Use the shoulder of the person next to you to blow your nose.
Use the shoulder of the person next to you to cry.
Have deep philosophical conversations about belly button lint.
Play an accordion for money. Make people pay you to stop.
Jump up and down muttering "gotta go, gotta go" then frown and say "oops."
Use pennies in the turnstile.
Where a Burger King crown and tell everyone that they must bow before royalty. Hit those who don't.

And the funny part of it all?

Section 1050.7, subsection I of the Code of Conduct of the Metropolitan Transit Authority of New York City:

Quote:
Conduct himself or herself in any manner which may cause or tend to cause annoyance, alarm or inconvenience to a reasonable person or create a breach of the peace;
*

And I SO wanted to engage in a rousing few verses of Kumbaya with the passengers too

Actually, going through some of these sections of the code..some of the things they go to the TROUBLE of mentioning you can't do (slideshows, poker, riding a bicycle, driving a car into the subway) and CAN do (Bring a weapon on board, so long as it's completely out of sight and unloaded..You can keep the bullets in the other pocket) are hilarious...

What gets me is that the MTA actually goes to the trouble of telling you what you can and can't do to the point of absurdety, just to keep anything overly silly from happening... Could you just IMAGINE the melee if people started driving their cars in Subway tunnels, bringing Radioactive materials onto subway cars, Riding on the Roof, or heaven forbid, bring a drink in an open container....

Failure to Obey the Code of Conduct can result in either a fine of up to $100, or Ten days Inprisonment...So much for the Blackjack tourney

How about, eat a bunch of beans before taking a long ride on the subway!

Or is that more how to disgust people on the subway?

Some of those things are against the law and can get you arrested.

Pennies in the turnstyle? No turnstyle takes money anymore!!!

How old is this list???
