Worst thing a stranger has ever done to you

So last year, I had a job down in the Loop (in Chicago). I used to take the EL to and from. It was always so crowded and annoying to try to get around. So one time I got on the train, and it was super crowded. This guy got on after me and squeezed his way into the train car, and the doors closed and the train left. So this guy continues to push his way into the car, and he's knocking people over and he's grumbling about how horrible this commute is and such.. so he sorta nudges me towards the doors. Which is fine. I rather be able to see out the doors instead of staring at someones neck. So he's still bitching, and he's right up against me. (His chest to my back), and we get to the next stop and......
BAM! the doors open and he puts his hands on my shoulders and shoves me as hard as he can and I fly out onto the platform. I was like.. WTF?!?!?! So I turn around, and he yells "I need SPACCCCCCCCCCCCCCEEEEEEEEEEEE" and waves bye to me. The doors close, and the train takes off.. And there I am standing at the platform and I've only made it one stop!
I have NEVER in my life seen someone do something so rude for no reason. I was on the train before him. Maybe he was crazy but he seemed like he was dressed from work and such. Rudest mofo ever. I swear someday I'll run into that guy again. His stupid face waving me goodbye is forever burned in my memory.

i hope the people left on the train gave him a world-class beatdown for that.
Have to say though, the original poster's experience would get me so angry, what a prick!!
Dunk, that wasn't a stranger. I told you I'd find you.

You know, as much as I love this city, people have the attitude of, "I saw nothing"
If I saw someone do that... ooohhh! I may be a girl, but I have one hell of a temper. Too bad I couldn't use it because I was left there standing dumb founded as my train took off.
Har de har har
That said, I can think of a few instances where people in downtown Chicago went out of there way to help me without me even asking for help.
EDIT: oh wait, In college I got egged by a passing by car. It was Halloween and I happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.. They were kind enough to aim below my knees, but it kind of stung since they were speeding by pretty fast.
That's funny has hell..So he actually waved at you and said bye as the train doors closed and left you behind? Funny visual..
put on a slow, dumb show for you
and crack you up
so you can put a blue ribbon on my brain
god I'm very, very frightening
and I'll overdo it'

dude, I kid you not! I think back on it now, and I laugh, but at the time I was sooooo pissed!
He just looked so proud of himself. At least make it look like its a mistake if you're crazy enough to shove a chick out of a train.
Some people should be rid from this earth..

:( I'm sorry Prism
How did the other people react to this?

I really don't know, it happened so fast. The EL really stops and leaves in a matter of a few seconds, so by the time I caught my balance and turned around there he was waving as the train pulled out. I hope someone said something to him!
Kidding of course. But it would have been funny.
8 days before this christmas...
yeah it was pretty bad :(

You dealt with it very well my friend. I'm sure this is the first you've mentioned on thread about it, the force is strong with you. Respect.
oh how i laughed
Jesus, I had no idea. I'm glad you are okay.. People can be such sh*theads. There are just no words for that.
Also, in response to Prism's post I think molesters should be hung, drawn and quartered, but that's just me, and I'm not the violent sort.

or at least be made to spend the rest of their days in a 6x6 prison cage with only Big Bubba to keep them company

thanks man.. i did a thread a while back thanking the people who'd got in touch with me as they have been brilliant about it .. they know who they are.. beautiful people all of them.
And prism, that is also a terrible thing to have to endure. It's very sickening to see people violate that trust by abusing someone like that.
I remember that thread. I was confused and didn't know what was going on. I didn't feel it my place to ask, because this was before I got my invitation to the Castle
But regardless, this taught me to ask when I don't know whats going on!
thank you
it's okay now as i've gotten way beyond it
though I admit that in a way I hope that they feel shame and remorse and that the guilt will continue to always haunt them. but other than that they aren't worth giving any more thought
