Universes collide, and Darth Vader and Batman meet not in the streets or in the stars, but on the subway. If things came to a head, our money is on Darth Vader, with his Force power versus Batman and his utility belt (especially in these close quarters).
It doesn’t look like too many other people are dressed to impress, so we’re guessing it’s not Halloween yet. Maybe these guys are on their way to take some photos in Time Square. Let’s just hope everyone made it to their destinations in one piece and that these guys are not for real and we are not going to witness this in our next Marvel movie.
Gotta Do What You Gotta Do
Ever taken the subway home from a sporting event? Then, packed train cars are something you've experienced. Sometimes you just make it on, but there is nothing around you can grab hold of to keep from being thrown into the stranger smashed in beside you.
But this lady was prepared, she came armed with a plunger, and thus her own steady handhold. Hey, she definitely gets points for creativity. It's travel friendly, just in case she has to change trains on a long ride, and it's also super hygienic. No one will ever leave marks off their sweaty hands on her pole anymore.
Dinner Prep
This lady must have been running really late because she started dinner preparations before she even got home. Who hasn't chopped onions on the subway? Well, most of us, if we're being honest. At least she knew she'd be running late, or how would she have had all her supplies with her, to begin with?
I don't think her seatmates appreciate her preparedness, but they're probably hungry too. But they seem to know better than to bother a lady with a knife, especially a very focused lady in a moving train, with a knife. Talk about hidden talents and being time efficient.
Stop, It's Hammock Time
So, it's not the couch we saw earlier, but it has its own very special charm. This guy not only brought but set up his own hammock for the ride to work (we're guessing). He looks a little too comfortable, and he may miss his stop, but he seems to have been organized enough so far.
There are more uses for a hammock than what the manufacturer ever thought. Hammocks are notoriously complicated to set up, so good luck beating the doors before they shut. But I guess anyone boarding the train will get a good laugh. At least they can walk around him.
A Personal Bubble
Don't you ever get frustrated when people forget about personal space and enter your bubble? Well, this girl takes her personal bubble very seriously and actually brought a bubble with her for the commute. No one's gonna get in her way today. We're impressed, and this will never age or break and she will be able to use this for many years to come.
Her statement is clear, and so is her personal space (which is especially difficult while traveling). This bubble is officially known as a Hoberman and shrinks for easy transport when not in use. That's right, it can shrink to travel size for your convenience.
