If you commute by public transport daily, you are already aware of all the weird things that happen on trains and buses. While most of the people sit idle and mind their own business, some people grab the onlookers' attention for right or wrong reasons. Public transport is messy. You have good guys, bad guys, homeless people, drug addicts, alcoholics and all kinds of people traveling with you. You never know who sits next to you. You never know what happens in the next minute. Read fifteen crazy public transport mess-up stories as shared by Redditors.
4.That Was a Total Mess-up
A man was verbally abusing his ladyfriend/mother of their child about how she was "fucking up the kid" and that the kid would "turn up gay and I don't want no faggot for a son". The kid was like 18 months old. A random man told the guy to back off, and the guy punched the man in the face.

5.The Horrible Mom
I saw this a number of years back, it made me not only despise humanity but also judge my place within it.
I was riding a city bus to the university I was attending. It was early morning, right in the middle of the commute time, the bus was packed. There was a woman sitting with her son in her lap. Every so often the son would cry and she would comfort him, lovingly. I thought little of this until he yelped more than cried. She was digging her nails into his arm, until he cried and then would comfort him. I have heard of parents hurting their children for the attention themselves, or to seem like good parents, just never seen it.
As it began to happen again. A homeless man got up and got right in her face. He said to her, "We all see what the fuck you are doing, but I am the only one who doesn't care what people think of me. You cut that shit out or I will fix this problem." He was right, people were to afraid of what would happen to help the boy, it took someone more removed. She stopped (for that bus ride) and I do my best to deal with things right when I find they don't sit right with me.

6.A Rare and Interesting Sight!
Girl, maybe mid-twenties on a Friday night, blacked out - all black clothes, jet black hair, black eye shadow, black nail polish, etc. She's just standing there holding onto a pole and all of the sudden a mouse or rat crawls out from her bust and crawls up to her shoulder. She gives the thing a kiss and it runs back down and up her shirt sleeve.
