What is the most interesting/weird/even disgusting thing you have seen on the subway/bus/mono rail, etc..for work or fun??
for me I have seen on the subway
-lady with messed up back walking from subway to subway asking for change for food even though someone noticed she had a nice manicure recently :p
-A band of Mexicans consisting of 5 players playing on the train
-Some religious guy screaming mad about jesus
-two black d00d did some crazy dance between stops.
now your turn. Please don't refer to that black crazy girl "I'm pressin charges" unless your really saw it live :p

actually a couple of hours ago, this kid, i'd rate him as 18-30ish (he looked young but could've been older) moaned cos the train was 3 minutes late then went into a tirade against the conductor cos he couldn't find a seat (tickets booked last minute dont allocate u a seat, it's a case of having to find one yourself) and he goes on and on and on and the conductor absolutely owned him. I was laughing my head off (3 rows infront of it) as this snobby little bastard got his ass handed to him on every point he made.
and a hot girl half-emo'd up but with a big rip down the back of her tights today too. from the front she looked sublime, from the back she looked like she'd just been dragged through a hedge :p

Not much action here on public transport in the UK I'm afraid. I watched some dude doing sudoku on the train in a mighty quiet carriage only for him to shout "YES!" and punch the air when he'd finished. You'd have thought he'd just discovered the cure for cancer :)

When I was younger this old lady fell over into the aisle when the bus took a sharp turn coming into the terminal. She was gripping the floor so hard and clutching at her heart, and I couldn't help myself from laughing...not because she fell, but because she had these really long and tacky fake nails on.
So yeah, when I got off he bus the lady behind me scolded me for laughing. Lulz.

Nothing out of the ordinary
Beggars, Musicians either going from train car to train car performing for money or performing in my station, Break Dancers breaking on a moving train car, Ghetto kids selling overpriced candy for their profit, ghetto young moms arguing with each other, passed out drunks.
And of course, the "I have no legs" dude

I've seen (selected):
-Dude geting arrested at gunpoint on the platform
-homeless guy, obviously wasted, make a squinty face and groan, piss himself and then smile like it was his first piss in a year...Ralph Wiggum style.
-Guy fighting with his girlfriend, slaps her and this hugh mofo tapped him on the shoulder and proceeded to lay him out cold.
-A wide array of homeless/vagrant/sketchbag...s
-The worst case of OCD I've ever seen. Beyond textbook.
-Gay sex at the other end of the train.
-Straight sex on a bus.
-A dog with only front legs and a wagon for his ass.

that's tame
once i was going to JFK on the L train at 3 in the morning and these two crazy shabbily clad people came on with a shopping cart filled with barbed wire and tarps. they screamed at me to move out of the way and generally verbally abused me and some of the other passengers.
then they started to unroll the barbed wire between the handle-poles from end to end of the train car. i didn't see what else happened because at the next stop i got off and got back in the next car
ive seen a homeless bum whip out his piece and piss in a bottle in front of everyone
ive seen drunken bums rolling around on the floor spitting on people and rubbing up against girls.
lücid
a guy with a snake around his neck and a small dog in a crate (i thought for sure that the dog must be snake food), old man playing pocket pool, guy who pissed his pants, girl getting fingered, plenty of typical drunk homeless bums spouting off nonsense, guys who were getting uncomfortably close to and very forward with females (myself included -- luckily another guy saw what was going on and intervened and stayed with me until my stop), etc.
i also once puked in the aisle of a train when i was 16 and wasted on margaritas. not one of my proudest moments.
