There should be a rule that creepy people don't get to take public transit.
This thread was posted to Reddit's r/AmITheA**hole subreddit by u/Unlikely-Strategy596, who shared his story about taking public transit and enjoying a nice nearly empty street car…that is, until that moment of peace was interrupted by a creepy guy who chose to sit down right next to him. It should be noted that the Redditor is male and as the comments seem to suggest, he was just given a glimpse into what life is like as a woman taking public transit every day.
If only there were a way to detect creepy people like this dude and stop them from entering public places, we would all lead happier lives. There are just certain things you don't do: sit next to people on the train when there are tons of empty seats, choose the urinal immediately next to someone else when there are plenty of vacant ones, or hog the shared armrest on a flight. That last one isn't necessarily creepy, it's just rude AF.
