Today I was standing on the train, minding my own business, when I look over and see a homeless man with something slowly inching it's way out his nose. The man was kinda crusty looking, with one eye closed and the other eye sporting a patch. The nose issue wouldn't have been too bad in itself except for the fact that there was someone sitting right below the homeless man, relaxing with his eyes closed; he had no idea that at any moment the snot could hit him. The homeless man tried breathing in through his nose, sucking it up, but every time it went up a bit it just came back down a bit more. I started sharing glances and laughing with several other people on the train, all of us worried what might happen with this homeless man and his snot. And in that moment, all of us watching and laughing bonded together, and the train became a little bit closer...as if it wasn't already cramped enough! Anyway, the homeless guy blew his nose right before the snot dripped on the sleeping man and we all breathed a sigh of relief. The end.
