“NYC Is A Simulation”: 47 Times People’s Commutes Were Ruined By Completely Unhinged And Entitled Passengers (New Pics)

Society requires us to find a way to coexist with each other, and while most people manage the basics just fine, there's always someone who forgets the world doesn't revolve around them.

They might not seem that annoying in passing, but when you're crammed together in a packed bus or train during rush hour, it's a different story.

So as a reminder to be more considerate, we created a wall of shame for passengers treating public transport like a private VIP lounge. From gross hygiene habits to messy eating, and—of course—littering, it's all here.

This woman literally took a Zoom call for work on the train this morning with no headphones and using the speakers loud on the phone and had the audacity to ask others to please be quiet.

And yes, they were travelling together. Once the bus filled up people needed those seats and finally asked to climb over them. They didn't stand up to let the people in.

He was going to town in his front-teeth-wide-smile style when I got on the train uptown. Did that until Midtown. Then made a nice big old spit on the floor too. I saw it for a good 45 minutes.

It was held up for an hour and a half, they just couldn't catch the guy. This energetic drunk, all on his own, kept running away from the train. Annoying, yet kind of funny.

On a very empty train. A parent has decided to leave their pushchair (circled in red) unfolded in the middle of the doorway despite the baggage storage area right beside it being completely empty. As a result, there's approximately 20cm to squeeze through for anyone who wants to visit the toilet, which must be very annoying for the person using the wheelchair space (circled in yellow).

Denise Richards' 'shocking' facelift and why celebs should be honest

Denise Richardsis opening up about hertransformative facelift. Andmore celebritiesshould follow her example andembrace that level of transparency.

Theformer "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star, 55, revealed in anew interview with Allurethat she underwent the procedure eight months ago. At first, she said, she was worried what people would think if it went wrong.

"I wanted to put things back up, where they were before," she told the outlet. "I was terrified."

While Richardsgot abreast augmentationin her late teens, and then later had a revision surgery, this was her first major cosmetic operation for her face.

"Being in the public eye since my 20s, people know what I look like − a facelift is not something that I could hide," she continued. "It is night and day," she added of the facelift. "It's shocking, actually."

Mental health experts previously told USA TODAY that transparency around celebrities' cosmetic procedures is crucial. By speaking out and being honest about the changes they've made to their bodies, celebrities like Richards can help curb unrealistic beauty expectations and give fans a more healthy view of body image.

Why celebrities should be transparent about cosmetic procedures

When celebrities get real about their cosmetic procedures, experts say it can benefit fans who often look to famous people as they analyze their own self-image. According toa 2014 study, those who "worship" celebrities may "harbor concerns about body image, be more prone to cosmetic surgery" and were more likely to struggle with their mental health.

Other big names who have opened up about their choices include Megan Fox, who revealed on the "Call Her Daddy" podcast in 2024 that she got her breasts done when she was 21 or 22 and then had them redone after breastfeeding her kids. She also said she had a procedure on her nose in her early 20s.

Kaley Cuocohas also been lauded for openly discussing her cosmetic surgeries, andDolly Partonfamously said "if something is bagging, sagging or dragging, I'll tuck it, suck it or pluck it." Courteney Cox admitted to "looking really strange with injections and doing stuff to my face that I would never do now," and, in October 2023,Sia revealed she got a faceliftand then she later said she underwent liposuction. In a 2022 American Society of Plastic Surgeons article, Amy Schumer received praise foropening up about her liposuctionafter she had surgery to treat endometriosis.

Experts agreeplastic surgery and other cosmetic proceduresare nothing to be ashamed of and transparency from celebrities is critical to dismantling unhealthy beauty norms. Embracing such vulnerability reminds people, particularly young girls, they weren't supposed to be born with the fuller lips or chiseled jaws they see in media.

When celebrities conceal they had work done, they risk deceiving people into thinking certain aesthetic features are obtainable naturally.

Kristin Cavallari clarifiesher past plastic surgeries. More celebs should do the same.

"Many celebrities look good naturally, but many also have work done. And when they're not honest about it,I think they're being unethicalbecause they're in the spotlight," Dr.Daniel Barrett,a plastic surgeon in Beverly Hills, previously told USA TODAY – unlike average people who can benefit from and take advantage of keeping their body alterations private.

"They… have a moral obligation to be transparent about anything they've had done that helps them achieve a certain look," Barrett added.

Deceiving the public about plastic surgery can cause problems

Concealing cosmetic procedures can have detrimental and long-lasting consequences on people's mental and physical health, experts added. The pressure to be perfect can also contribute to disordered eating.

"The psychological pressure to meet societal beauty standards can be difficult to manage, especially because it can leave you feeling like you're never good enough," Naomi Torres-Mackie, a clinical psychologist and chief clinical officer at theMental Health Coalition, previously told USA TODAY.

Torres-Mackie called these beauty comparisons "a rigged race that's unwinnable," adding it's still the norm to "hide all imperfections at any cost" despite the push for body positivity. She also said admitting to cosmetic work "takes a certain level of vulnerability."

"It's a brave thing to do that could potentially help others," she added.

Instead of shaming others, or ourselves, for what we look like, we should prioritize shifting the conversation around beauty and body image,Elizabeth Daniels, a professor of psychology at the University of Colorado Colorado Springs and the director of the Centre for Appearance Research at UWE Bristol, previously told USA TODAY: "We should be encouraged to celebrate the differences and think about beauty more broadly. There is no one way to be beautiful."

Gwyneth Paltrow sets first lead role in over a decade with “Strangers” adaptation

Gwyneth Paltrowis heading back to the big screen.

TheRoyal Tenenbaumsactress will headline an adaptation of Belle Burden's best-selling bookStrangers: A Memoir of Marriage. Paltrow will also serve as an executive producer on the project, with Heidi Schreck, who wrote the acclaimed playWhat the Constitution Means to Me, penning the script. Stacey Sher, who previously worked with Paltrow onContagion, will produce the movie. A director has yet to be announced.

Burden's memoir begins with the author living comfortably with her family in Martha's Vineyard at the start of the pandemic in March 2020. Her world is rocked when her husband of 20 years suddenly leaves her with no warning, prompting her to reflect on where the relationship went wrong.

Netflix won a six-way bidding war for the rights to the book, which was published in January.

The film will mark Paltrow's first leading role since 2010'sCountry Strong. For nearly two decades, the Oscar-winning actress has focused more on her lifestyle brand Goop, which launched in 2008, than on acting.

The vast majority of Paltrow's screen appearances in the 2010s came in Marvel Cinematic Universe films, playing Pepper Potts inIron Man 2,The Avengers,Iron Man 3,Spider-Man: Homecoming,Avengers: Infinity War, andAvengers: Endgame. (If that's hard to keep track of, don't worry — even Paltrow herselfdoesn't know which Marvel movies she's in.) Her only non-MCU movie performances of the last 15 years were in 2011'sContagion, 2012'sThanks for Sharing, 2015'sMortdecai, and 2025'sMarty Supreme.

On the small screen, Paltrow has played supporting roles onGleeandThe Politician, both of which were produced by her husband, Brad Falchuk, whom she married in 2018. She also guest-starred on episodes ofWeb Therapy,Nightcap, andThe New Normal. She recently leant her voice to an episode ofAmerican Horror Stories, also produced by Falchuk.

Paltrow recently spoke withEntertainment Weeklyabout being "petrified" to return to the big screen withMarty Supreme.

"Acting is so weird. It's so hard to explain how you do it. It's not a skillset that...it's not a trade that you learn and you get onboarded into how to do something," she said onThe Awardistpodcast. "It's so weird and ephemeral and kind of magic. So I was like,how did I used to do this? And am I still going to be able to do this? Am I going to be able to access all that stuff and the energy and in the moment?"
