​See you there!

Last week, Akiko was traveling on a packed subway train next to a man who was playing games on his smartphone. That's not unusual, of course, as many of us do the same....in silence, though.

He was pretty excited by the music playing through his headphones, however, and sang off-key close to her ear for the whole of her journey. He sang the same tune over and over again.

The 'ordeal' lasted 15 minutes.

Personally, I find people, usually men, who snort when they have a cold to be particularly distasteful. On one occasion, I offered a young guy on the subway a free packet of tissues I had been given as I entered the station. He accepted it gratefully not realising the true intention was to stop my annoyance!

What manner do you find annoying when on public transport?
