A brief moment

As I was sitting on BART playing monopoly on my phone like normal, a stranger sat next to me. As I approached my stop, he opened his bag and pulled out cologne. My initial thought, "I like to get ready on BART too." But, out of nowhere he starts spraying his arm in my direction spraying his cologne all over me.

I looked up from my phone, wiped my arm and glared at him. He nonchalantly continued spraying the rest of himself so I threw my bag on the floor, grabbed his cologne and threw it at the floor shattering the bad smell of yesterday into a thousand pieces.

No, that's my Ally McBeal moment of what should have happened. What happened? I went back to playing Monopoly and watched him bolt out of the door as we pulled to the same stop.

If you decide to use public transportation as your bathroom, which I have to admit, I am no more innocent, at the very least keep your smells to yourself.
