We Got No Time To Waste

Preparing while still on the ride is not a crime if we are on our way to the office for a critical presentation. We cannot judge that maybe this guy is not well prepared because we can almost feel his agitation while he's in his suit. At the same time, it looks like his co-workers are in for some discussion.

According to Lumen Learning, 70% of corporate jobs involve presentations during meetings, and workers must comply in quality and on time. We can support these hardworking guys knowing they are not wasting a living second!

Taking The Yoga Practice Too Far

While there is no right or wrong time to practice yoga, there is certainly an appropriate place to do so. The activity is designed to get in tune with one's inner peace, and it offers an impressive amount of benefits. The most important are heart health, quality sleep, and easing body pain.

However, it might not be the best choice if we do it in the middle of a public subway ride. External distractions are everywhere, as we can see in the photo. Though we are not here to point fingers, we hope the girl found a better place and time to do some stretches.

Plunging Into The Rush Hour

Some days, finding a comfortable spot on the subway is like hitting the jackpot in the lottery. Also, people rarely have the time and energy to argue, so we settle for whatever is attainable. This photo shows how people can be great strategists in challenging times and rush hours while commuting included.

It might be hilarious, but we can't deny how funny and clever it can also be! The woman looked like she had enough of bumping and competing for poles, so she used a plunger to keep herself grounded—it kind of makes sense knowing how plungers work.

Who Thought Subway Photoshoots Can Make You An Instant Celebrity

Indeed, much can happen in a subway ride and beyond! This New York woman, Jessica George, went viral in 2019 after a video of her taking a photoshoot on a New York subway was uploaded online. Her fellow passenger, Ben Yahr, took a video of her while striking the perfect poses in front of a camera.

The video was posted on Twitter and garnered over 9 million views. It was also followed by people's admiration for Jessica's confidence in turning a subway ride into a glamorous shoot experience. So remember, confidence is a must, whether you are practicing for a catwalk or maintaining good posture.

Train To... Hell?

It is a bizarre experience to be sharing a ride with what looks like someone who belongs to the underworld. With its glaring red eyes, edgy horns, rough skin, and strange look, hovering over this sight gives us a sense of creeps.

This is also why parents don't let their children ride the subway, especially during the night shift. The law also emphasizes the importance of accompanying children under the age of eight when going to trains or buses. Just don't mess with this dark guest because prevention is always better than cure!

A Quick Foot Fix

Not being able to prepare what shoes to wear beforehand happens to many people, but it's a different story when it's the rainy season. Despite the wrong decision to wear sparkly white sneakers, we'd still like to commend the person for grabbing an umbrella.

The most commendable is how the owner protected the sneakers by only using a saran wrap usually used as cover for food and leftovers. Its ability to adjust to water vapor, aroma molecules, and oxygen makes it a reliable quick-fix life-hack for a mini emergency like this!

Do-It-Yourself Chin Rest

If we thought the plunger used as a pole won the category, we might want to think of this one as a close competitor. Who thought walking sticks were plainly used for walking purposes? Guess we'll never know unless we get caught in a situation that squeezes our practicality and creativity, just like the girl here!

Falling asleep while standing might sound impossible, but many people can do so. According to Inverse, sleeping while standing occurs more to humans who are deeply tired and need to doze off for a while. So as long as she's not hurt and she wakes up before the destination, just let her be.

Maybe The Former President Wanted Time Away From The Spotlight

Many might take delight in looking alike with a well-respected and famous figure. In this case, all it took was one glance, and we can say the guy looks like former President Barack Obama. This situation comes with strangers asking for autographs and cameras positioned everywhere.

Just like what happened in this image posted by a commuter on Twitter. It even had the caption "Obama in 20 years." But this one right here looks like he wanted to get past the subway ride and go home from work. Or, we can also suggest trying a career as an Obama impersonator!

Still In The Party Mood

Riding the late-night subway means coming across some teenage party girls, going home from a long night, or getting to the gathering destination. Either way, this group of people always comes as loud and happy.

This group right here looks like they are still in a party mood. The hype might still be there to the point that one slipped on the escalator while the other two decided to share a burst of laughter first before actually helping their friend. We can even feel the cheerful atmosphere just by looking at them. Nevertheless, staying safe while riding the escalator is still a priority!

As Gothic As It Gets

We are not here to judge, but looking at the girl's features, we can assume she fits into the description of what a goth seems like. Gothic fashion style comes with dark, mysterious, and homogeneous features. It emphasizes dark clothing and rouge. This trend was not so well-accepted at first, but it has become typical over time.

Aside from that, what made this subway commuter stand out more is that raven. Inspired by Edgar Allan Poe's poem, "The Raven," this woman has embraced what it's like to be a goth in a modern and busy era.

I Am A Human Being, Please Don't Mind Me

Either the person clothed in the grass just wanted to arrive at the costume event party-ready, or he tried to put on some grass to hide in. Nonetheless, this one looks weird, scary, and hilarious at the same time. The face of the woman screams confusion and amazement over trying to figure out what she's next to.

We bet similar expressions crossed our faces too! This may look odd, but we can still enjoy the rest of our subway ride knowing that the Sound Transit Organization doesn't allow big animals and plants inside. Rest assured that it's just a human being!

To Ask Is Always The Best Choice

One look, and we could easily say this is one of the saddest scenes we can see in a subway ride. It's heartbreaking to be lost somewhere and crying at what is supposed to be a memorable day of your life. We might think this depicts a runaway scene, but reality says otherwise.

The bride in the photo is Hannah Booth, and her tears come from a less severe reason than what we first thought. She felt very sick after drinking too much champagne and felt the need to excuse herself. We have to take a step back and realize that asking before assuming is the best choice.

Stepping Up The Subway Game

Subways are often associated with a portal because it feels like we are entering into a dimension when we enter one. This also means that we have to complete our to-do lists because the outside world may seem blurry for a little while. However, the subway train in Seoul, Korea, improved their game by placing a grocery store inside.

Since it has been put up, commuters can purchase grocery products on their way home. In a blog by Andrew Miller, they expressed their fascination for this set-up because it made their lives more comfortable as products have become more accessible and shopping has become time-friendly.

 All-Purpose Handle

Falling asleep while on public transport is not new, and it has been a familiar scene. Aside from lack of sleep and exhaustion for the day, Smart Sleeping Tips revealed that our minds become still when we ride road transportation. As a result, we lose consciousness and fall asleep.

Such scenes like this are understandable. However, it may be hilarious when some external circumstances decide to play their parts. For instance, the bars served as nose support for this girl while she was in dreamland. We hope the nap helped her be energized too!

Meeting Mr. Santa In The Most Unlikely Way

Santa Claus has been a significant figure for children, especially during Christmas. Almost all children want to talk to him, but what if we met him in the most unexpected yet unlikely way? It can be disappointing for a child to learn that Mr. Santa looks like a regular person and is just clothed in a Christmas costume.

That disappointment can be seen across the child's face in the photo. House Method surveyed families across the United States and found out that children stop believing in Santa when they reach eight to nine years old. The poor boy is still not ready for his dreams to be shattered!

A Peep From 2,000 Years Ago

From meeting a grass-like entity to catching a glimpse of Barack Obama, the subway continued to offer surprise guests from time to time. This time, we catch a glimpse of a Jesus Christ lookalike. Although Jesus hasn't been around for over 2,000 years, people still copy his looks.

The one right here got the beard style and hair just right, plus he is holding something which we can assume is the Bible. It's not every day that we get a peep of what it was like to have Jesus two millenniums ago.

Cake On The Go

This might also look like the girl is hurrying to deliver the cake somewhere, but reality offers a cuter version of the truth. The girl is Bettina Banayan, a performance artist who has already performed in the New York subway a couple of times.

However, this specific day and moment were a bit special because she did not just frost the cake; she also shared it with the commuters on that ride! The video was uploaded online and received positive comments for making a subway ride sweeter and friendlier. It's a simple way of making the world a better place.

Multitasking? No Problem!

This girl just lived by the notion of multitasking exceptionally well and even brought it to greater lengths. People around her looked amused, but it was also amusing to see that she was so focused. The onions are cut nicely, and there is no shed of tears for that. That way, she can drop the onion as soon as she gets home.

However, we also have to be mindful of possible powerful smells that can easily dominate the ride. The Kitchn website also advised not to bring too much food when riding the subway. Seriously, we hope she went home safely and got to cook her tasty recipe.

Bro's Night Out Taken To Another Level

Twins and triplets dressed alike are adorable, cute, and soft, but only if they are still a child. But when grown-up men do the same, we can't be sure if we can still offer the same reaction, especially if they're all rolled up in a subway ride to deep sleep.

A bro's night out probably happened. Now they are on their way home while trying their best to fill in energies, considering the one guy just chose to sit comfortably on the floor while still sleeping! Having sons of the same features might be confusing, but it's still a unique gift given to one in every 10,000 women.

A Wig Can Never Go Wrong.... Until?

Wigs have their fair share of advantages and disadvantages. It protects our crowning glory from heat and artificial chemicals, while it can also cause serious damage in the long run. But how about if it caters to the whole face, just like what the girl in this picture is sporting.

It could be that she was protecting her face from the outside heat and pollution, or she's really not just comfortable in showing off her features. Either way, it can be amusing to see that it matched her accessories, outfit, and sneakers! Way to go.

The Subway Yoga We'd Be Delighted To See

We know we said before that yoga routines are meant to be executed at an appropriate place. However, this adorable mother-and-child bonding did not harm anyone or anything. The woman is actually the wife of Alec Baldwin, Hilaria Baldwin. She's a yoga instructor who shares yoga poses on Instagram.

The yoga pose they executed here is Ananda Balasana, also known as Happy Baby Pose. It is often practiced on babies because it emphasizes gentleness and calmness. And just like other physical activities, it improves overall mind and body exercise. What a way to spend some quality time despite the rush hour!

A Seatmate He'd Never Want To Be Seated Next To Again

You know how they say, mind your own business? Of course, that's true. Who knows what the lady went through that kept her so busy she forgot to cut her toenails, so we wanted to employ the same wisdom here. However, this story already involves hygiene, politeness, and respect for others!

The guy looks bothered and looks like he was secretly whispering to himself that he hopes he doesn't sit next to this girl again. We can't blame him, and we don't want to blame the girl either; we just hope they learned a lesson or two.

New York Speaking For Itself

The New York Subway is among the most iconic subway, primarily for its diversity, where people from all walks of life co-exist. Consider this viral photo here, captured by a subway rider in 2017, which he shared on Instagram.

Comments from people said they didn't see anything wrong in the photo. It's even amusing to see a Muslim woman and a drag queen sitting next to each other, minding their own business. Soon after, the line "This is the future that liberals want" trended on Twitter as people began to discuss respectful and diverse spaces as a bare minimum for every human being.

Maybe He's On The Life-And-Death Game Level

Video games peaked their popularity in the '70s through the '80s and continued to dominate the mainstream media. Some subways offer free led screens, but most don't, and it's pretty easy to see here that the monitor came from the guy himself. Even a subway ride can't take away his love for gaming!

The activity may give off feelings of fun and relaxation, but the negative impacts last more in the long run. According to Healthy Gamer, some of the most severe effects of too many video games include developing an aggressive personality, poor social skills, decreased sleep quality, and reduction in motivation.

Fallen Angel On Her Way To Experience Earth

It must have hurt being a fallen angel. Who would want to give up heavenly privileges in exchange for the world we have here, especially the hassle of commuting that this lady has experienced. Well, it must also be that the angel is just on her way to spread kindness to wherever costume party she's headed to.

Either way, this scenario just depicted how heaven and earth can co-exist at some points, even if it includes a fully-dressed angel experiencing the subway culture. We'll also include overall public transport and commuting in general.

Dino Fans Are Also Soccer Fans

Russia has a famous metro system that connects the neighboring cities of Moscow. It is written in history as the first underground railway system in the Soviet Union. In that same place was where this hilarious photo was taken.

In 2018, Russia hosted the FIFA World Cup, gathering football players and fans worldwide. These guys in the photo showed up to support the Brazilian national football team, and they did so in an extraordinary way. While Brazil is not represented by a dinosaur, the symbol generally means courage. Indeed, walking around in those costumes takes courage!

We'll Get By With A Smile...

Riding the subway comes with the reality of encountering some weird and unusual scenarios from time to time. And this one is definitely counted in that list. Seeing this guy after a long day at work or school is not the best idea. It might even cost you a good night of sleep and relaxation.

Whatever this fellow was going through that he chose to wear a creepy mask, we hope he doesn't do it often. This is another explanation why folks don't let their children ride the subway, especially at night. Anyway, maybe we will just get through this guy by our smiles, a sweet one.

Einstein Just Cracked His Time Travel Theory

Albert Einstein set out the possibility of time travel that led many scientists to develop various theories. His theory of special relativity believes that time is an illusion that moves relative to a person. Thus, time travel is possible in one direction, either back to the past or forward to the future.

Perhaps commuters in this ride were astonished to see the iconic guy in history come to life. We might want to think Einstein successfully defended his notion. Though we are not sure if he's from the past or the future, we hope he is enjoying the wonders of the 21st century.

No Man Is An Island

According to Medium, people are getting more comfortable being "forever alone." Probably this photo can pass the category of that line. It's not every day that we see a person sitting next to and talking to a paper-built buddy or robot.

Well, at least he has somebody to lean upon and share his thoughts with. Seven Cups noted that sharing our thoughts and feelings with friends or even strangers clears our minds and promotes a good social relationship. And although it's good he has someone by his side; we hope he has real people to share life with.

Buzz Off: Where's The Honey

Many subway companies don't allow plants and animals in subway rides, but maybe these buzzing bees were an exception. However, we can't deny how terrifying it might be if these bees will sting innocent passengers. Not to mention they are being steadied by just a rubber band!

Honey Flow suggested that bees be transported using a pickup truck or a trailer. Transporting a beehive in an enclosed vehicle or transportation system is dangerous. For sure, real trouble awaits, so we don't recommend pulling out this stunt. We have to remember how prevention is always better than cure.

Yes, I Know What I'm Doing

We might notice her smug expression at first glance, but as we look closer, there lies a cute little kitten in her jacket. Then we realize why she has that smug face in the first place.

The spokesman for Metropolitan Transportation Authority emphasized that people can bring their pets in the subway provided they are enclosed in a safe container and should not annoy, disturb, or harm any passengers. We can see this was not followed, but we don't want to judge because who knows where they're headed. We just hope she wouldn't pull this act again.

At Ease In His Shell

Turtle lovers claim how turtles consider their shell as more than just home if there is a greater comparison. Again, Metropolitan Transportation Authority allows animals in the subway as long as they are enclosed and not harmful. Surely, the turtle is a peaceful creature and too shy to start trouble.

But what amuses us more is that the turtle seems like walking on a leash. According to The Spruce Pets, they should be kept in a storage container such as a plastic box when traveling. And we should remember that they are water creatures; roaming on a solid floor might tire them out.

Never Say No To Pizza

Sometimes, words aren't just enough, and you have to think of extra stuff to make your apology stand out. In this case, the guy chose a box of pizza as a perfect alliance. We can assume the person he's giving that to is a food lover. After all, it's one of the most famous food choices.

BootsnAll recorded that more than five billion pieces are sold worldwide each year, and an average of 350 slices are eaten each second. Yet, aside from offering it as a sweet gesture after a misunderstanding, we must remember that the best apology comes with genuine hearts and actions.

Fashion Sense Is A Statement

Fashion in the sense of clothing is considered a form of self-expression. As explained by Management Study Guide, what we wear reflects our personality, mood, style, and what we are. However, we also have to be cautious not to judge anyone quickly based on a piece of garment.

However, it might be a different story if someone is clothed with a groovy jacket surrounded by beheaded faces of dolls. Whether it's just her style or she truly does love Barbie dolls so much, the most important thing is that we don't mess with her or anybody else!

Nobody Crosses The Chicken

Having a chicken as a pet may not be usual, but it can be possible. This one was even allowed to experience a subway ride, primarily because of its stylish and safe carriage. We usually see them in farms and gardens, but this one is city-based, loves Cheerios, and likes its pink attitude.

The Spruce Pets shared that chickens are good pets, and they can be tamed by people they feel comfortable with. They are also good followers and loyal buddies. The obvious downside is that they are not as cuddly as other home pets like dogs and cats.

The Bald Spot

Catching the subway and finding a comfortable spot aren't always easy. This might even feel like a tight competition. Considering that, it is hilarious to think how these men managed to sit next to each other! It's as if someone has set up a conference and fellowship program.

According to Mayo Clinic, baldness can happen to anyone, but it is more common in men. And the three main factors involved in this phenomenon are genetics, age, and hormones. We hope they're all comfortable with each other and find solace within one another. Indeed, human experiences are closely similar.

Last-Minute Halloween Preparations

Who says sporting costumes at Halloween parties are only meant for kids? Say no more because adults found this event fun and wholesome, letting out their inner child. Maybe her friends invited her at the last minute, so her gear up was last minute. And even if that's what happened, we'd still like to commend her for a unique alien mask.

Even if this girl looked drowsy and not in the mood, we can not be sure if she's just putting her costume at heart. As aliens are often sleepy and leave pieces of evidence while human beings are asleep, as reported by NY Times.

Camouflage The Subway Style

While most people hate encountering someone or something that matches their clothes, this guy wearing a shirt that looks the same as the seat's print gamely flashed us his bright smile. Indeed, it can be an awful feeling to come across someone who wears the same thing, but this guy seems to relay a different message to us.

This is also one picture representing the magic of coincidence and how things can be very entertaining in our daily lives. There is definitely no harm in sitting and posing with something that can also pass as your bed sheet.

No Such Thing As Too Much Lettuce

Riding the subway can sometimes make us feel hungry, and the time we spend waiting for our destination urges us to grab something to munch on. The guy in this picture knows exactly what he wanted, and he just can't put his love for lettuce off.

It can only be due to two things: he's starving or found the lettuce to be very tasty. Well, that's even better because lettuce is among the healthiest food choices. Harley Medical writes that it strengthens bone, ensures hydration, nourishes skin, and improves sleep.

Twice As Nice

This photo is a few of those who would require you to look twice and clean your eyes. We can even label it an isolated case, the doppelganger phenomenon, cute identical twins, or just a camera glitch.

We wish it were digitally altered, but the proper angle and arrangement of things within the image says it's not. So it might feel unbelievable, but it is possible! And we have to accept that sometimes real-life scenarios are weirder than the fiction we create in our heads. We hope the two guys talk and know each other better, and maybe they'll discover more shocking realities.

No One Stays Mad At A Panda

Who wants to be stuck on the door and cause a commotion? No one, not even this cute panda struggling to get in. Perhaps it is causing a delay or inconvenience, but one thing we have to know about Japan is that they love pandas so much.

Japanese are all about things that are kawaii or cute. And the soft, innocent panda who is far from aggression and boldness fit the term so much. Ron Swaisgood, Director of Applied Animal Ecology, also explained that pandas are well-loved because of their distinctive, relatable human-like eyes!

Check The Label

The British subway and its natives preserve the value of urban solitude, and it is even reminded during subway trips. British people aren't so comfortable conversing with strangers, they prefer minding their own businesses, and we respect that.

For someone who doesn't like feeling alone because of this note, we suggest using the time to reflect, rest our minds, and generally observe respect for what the culture promotes. But wait! This sign is actually fake, and it's been one of those stickers that funny and bored Londoners put on the street. We were serious with that notion, with or without an official note.

Subway Dreams Will Come True, Someday

Subways can also be a safe space for artists who look like he is coming home from a Shakespeare play. Well, a man can dream, right? More so, it is a place where dreamers flock- it is just that this guy brought his harp for everyone to see. Aside from the instrument, what stood out was his pondering, seeking eyes.

Dreaming is another; having an instrument within your hands is one thing, and we'd like to take part in his manifestation for his musician dreams to come true. Not to mention that the harp is a complex instrument to play, as stated by Morley Harps.

Excuse Me, I'm Having An Adventure In Dreamland

Seeing people falling asleep during a subway ride has become a typical scenario. It is entirely understandable as most are tired from a long day of work, school, and balancing life. However, specific people need more space, so they also need more flexibility.

The person on this image looks like he's lost in dreamland, and even if it's not pleasing to look at, we don't want to disrupt his journey either. New York magazine explains that our body adapts to a routine that signals us when to work and when to rest, explaining why many people fall asleep on their way home.

Bad Hair Day

Our hairs are called our crowning glory because it is at the top-most part of our head, and it plays a lot to a person's appearance. It also reflects personality, style, and hygiene. With all these, it is no wonder why we should take care of our crowning glory.

Yet, some people like trying different technological advancements like synthetic pieces. And that's where we become extra cautious because it may loosen and fall off our heads. This is especially true if we get involved in a catfight or rush hour where everyone is trying to get a ride, which are the two possible reasons seen in this photo.
