Chances are you’ve travelled on the tube at some point in your
life. It zips you around London in no time and it keeps the hustle and bustle
of the city ticking over.
But have you ever noticed how there are quite a few annoying
people on the tube. Here are just a few examples of the sort you’ll see on your
next trip on the Northern/Circle/Central/Bakerloo/You-Get-The-Gist Line.

The smelly drunk

No matter what time you hop on the tube there's someone who's had a few too many cans of Special Brew - be it at 9am or 9pm.
The reader
Even when there's no room you'll find one person who thinks they can read a few pages of their book. It's even worse when you get someone who thinks they can read their broadsheet edition of the Telegraph.
The desperate seat grabber
You know the sort. There's one seat left and a whole rabble of people have just got on at Leicester Square. From that gang of people one person will dash over to the chair to sit down only to get off at the next stop. What a dick.
The tourist
If you didn't laugh at the tourist/TARDIS gag then shame on you. It always makes me laugh when a tourist gets on the tube and gets their guide out and anxiously studies the tube map for the stop they need to get off at to see Monument. (Pro top - get off at Monument)
The backpackers
A backpack takes up excessive space on an underground carriage. When your life possessions are in your backpack then it's time to consider how many people you're pissing off.

I don't get how they can afford the EXTORTIONATE fares.
The football fans

Imagine these guys on a tube carriage. Well you don't have to just go to London on Saturday at around 5pm.
The fancy dressers
"You will be upgraded." No doubt that's what this fancy dresser is saying. The Cybermen once tried to invade London, let's hope this guy didn't get attacked by people fearing the robotic men were real after all.
And…The people on the way to/back from work
This guy must have had a hard day at work. He probably works in a bank 16 hours-a-day which would explain why he's asleep on the tube. Or he has really bad back posture.
