Public transportation is an important part of every serious city. One thing that is not serious, though, is the conduct of some passengers. Here are some of the funniest, strangest, and craziest people on subways and buses.

When people talk about this guy, they always say he was so book smart. At his Ivy League college, he double-majored in French Literature and Physics. Whenever he had a problem, he headed to the library or bookstore to figure it out. However, he was never very street smart. He bought a 475-page book how-to book on running, but never actually laced up his sneakers and hit the pavement. Same issue here- his reading prevents him from talking to any women on the train.

Who needs friends when you have this crinkled, human-shaped, paper-mache disaster? Although people do strange stuff on the subway all the time, this has to be one of the saddest, as this guy had potential to be normal.

However, this guy, who can afford a G-shock watch, could still turn it all around and be normal.

On the Moscow subway, pets are strictly forbidden. This woman, though, needs to bring her cat between her and her ex-husband's house, as their divorce papers specify that they have joint custody of Snuggles. To transport the kitty, she dons a Dick Tracy raincoat and stuffs Snuggles in there. You can tell from the suspicious and intense look on her face that she does not want to be photographed, as this picture could be used as evidence against her, and she could get her train pass revoked.

This Edgar Allen Poe super-fan went as far as buying a black bird to match that from the famous poem "The Raven" by the dark lyricist. Although all the black clothes and makeup make it seem like this person simply does not care about anything, she has the raven on a blue leash, as the rules of public transport dictate. Perhaps underneath all the makeup, leather pants, and the dreary outlook, she is actually a stickler for the rules of society.
