From CS:
The scene: Orange Line, approaching Vienna.
With people in car standing, a man wearing large (6-inch long, by the looks of it), silver cross around neck has his feet stretched out across his seat (an Unsuck Riders-We-Hate no-no).
Lounging up a storm, he's reading newspaper, casually dropping read sections on the floor.
The train pulls into the station, and we get up to leave.
A rough transcript of what ensued:
Me (pointing at pile on floor): I think you forgot your newspaper.
Him: (Shaking head knowingly) It's alright.
Me: No, it's not alright. You're not supposed to leave trash on the train.
Him: Don't be so petty.
Me: Me, petty? You're the one who left the trash on the train.
Him: This country is falling apart.
Me: I agree with you there, but that doesn't change the fact that you left your trash on the train.
Him: Don't be so petty.
Me: You're the one who left the trash. Where do you get off doing that?
Him: You should go to church more. Don't be so petty.
Whereupon we parted on the platform.
Made me wonder: Where would Jesus litter?
