The Strangest People You'll See On The Subway

The guy is notorious for making ridiculous book covers and placing them over existing books and reading them in public. Some other notable covers read: Fantastic Nukes And Where To Drop Them, How To Hold A Fart In, and Slut Shaming Your Baby.

Nobody will ever be as Goth as riding-a-subway-with-your-raven Goth. This photo was taken on a Russian Metro, but it makes you wonder: How did she domesticate the raven?

We’re sure that most subway systems want their riders to be comfortable, and the more props you can find to make the journey as easy as possible, the better we always say. Even if this does include a newspaper to act as a light blocker. Innovation at its finest. We hope she doesn’t roll off.

Never mind that there’s an entire row of open seating next to this guy, he was just too tired and just fell asleep on the subway floor! When you gotta sleep, you just gotta sleep. Have you ever felt that exhaustion just hit you uncontrollably and you just have to collapse where ever you are, even if it means not walking one cm to a luxurious row of seats? Us neither, but this dude did.

There is something comforting about the head bobbing back mouth open napping position on the underground. It is the go-to position for most people it seems. This lady is very taken with the position, her head is so far back she looks like she is looking at the ceiling. We hope she doesn’t hurt her neck.

We love that this woman is getting her yoga workout taken care of while commuting to work! If you have no time, you make time. So why not, combine your morning workout with your morning commute. Makes sense to us.

We’ve been on plenty of subway trains and they are usually pretty warm, so we’re not sure why this person didn’t bother to take off their costume. Perhaps it was to cheer up all the other travelers, which it looked like it did. One woman is smiling a lot, but boy boy boy that person must be boiling.

We don’t doubt that this gentleman works hard, we just doubt how comfortable he can be trying to sleep sideways. That is going to majorly hurt his neck when, or if he wakes up. His briefcase looks like something out of a movie. We wonder what interesting objects we would find in there.

We’ve never seen ninja’s on a train, but you can bet that if we do we’ll just wait for the next one. We really hope it was Halloween on this day, and that they were simply getting into the spirit of dressing up. The train guard looks like he is escorting them off the platform, or did they scare him off?

This guy is clearly just showing off as he could easily be standing or sitting while commuting to what we can only assume is his job as a acrobat. But it does provide very fun morning entertainment, we are not sure how long he will last up there, and how easy it will be to stay if the train is moving fast.

A pet Raven on a leash? At a loss for words on this one...

Who is your money on, in a fight between Batman and Darth Vader? We actually are not sure who would win, but never the less it brings a lot of entertainment for the other passengers. These are great outfits for a morning commute we must say.

People will make any sort of animal their pets. This tiny little fur ball that is about to step on the subway, is wearing an adorable witches hat to keep its little head warm. This little hamster is on its first day out, very exciting. We wonder what everyone else on the underground will think of its sweet accessory. What a great companion. Who needs a dog anyway.

Who doesn’t love Pikachu? This is a great outfit, but we can imagine it is a bit toasty in there. The comical thing about this image is that whoever is in there, is holding the bar for balance, but the only way they could reach was through the mouth hole of the costume. So this Pokemon character has a long arm and hand for a tongue.

Hey, at least this time it's not just an imaginary friend! Let's just hope this was a school project...

If we saw this in the subway station we would be quite frightened. This person looks like they have just stepped out of a Super Hero movie. Is this the latest recruit from Justice League? We wonder how they can stand in that costume? Innovative idea, we might try for Halloween next year.

This bulldog has fit very nicely into this small cross body bag. It almost looks like the latest fashion accessory. However, this pooch does not look too impressed by his owner’s choice of bag to carry him in.

Believe it or not this "swamp monster" is actually a sniper in training dressed in a ghillie suit. His CO ordered him and all of the other trainees to dress in these suits or risk being thrown out of the program.  Believe it or not this "swamp monster" is actually a sniper in training dressed in a ghillie suit.

This woman clearly will go to great lengths to make sure she follows through with her date plans. Apparently, she was held up at work and decided to prepare the dinner on the subway! It gets better, she started off by chopping onions of all things! She even had passengers around her tearing up.  This woman clearly will go to great lengths to make sure she follows through with her date plans.

If there are no seats, you should always come prepared for this guy. Simply put up your hammock and you’re good to go for the rest of your journey. Look how perfectly he is positioned. The ultimate in convenience and comfort we are going to consider this, sign us up.

You think she had a few too many? This woman just came from the bars, and to complete her night, paired it with some greasy pizza. Little did she know, she wouldn't make it in time to devour that whole pie herself. Luckily, the paper on the floor saved it! Whether she indulged later, we don't know but there is no judgement here!

First of all, why would you buy and car and then it on the subway? I guess either he's a germaphobe or he just really likes the amenities.  First of all, why would you buy and car and then it on the subway?

I'd like to say that this woman isn't crazy and is simply saving time by doing a hair treatment while waiting on the subway, but I don't think that's the case. Maybe next time, save the weird DIY health hacks for the privacy of your home.  I'd like to say that this woman isn't crazy and is simply saving time by doing a hair treatment while waiting on the subway, but I don't think that's the case.

We had to do a double take to find out what was so "odd" about this woman. Then. there it was peaking out at us, meow! I'd probably do the same to be honest, who says smuggling kittens on a subway is a crime? Maybe she just rescued it.  We had to do a double take to find out what was so "odd" about this woman.

Well, that's one way of letting people know to respect your personal space. Hate to break it to her though, she's not protecting herself against any germs with this toy ball.  Well, that's one way of letting people know to respect your personal space.

Um....Hello!!! Can you not? This is exactly why women don't want to ride the subway! Next time, at least be a little smarter about where you are reading.  Um....Hello!!!
