Some things are just better done in private.
Sitting on a commuter train this morning, my seatmate was a woman who decided the ride in to work would be a good time to do her makeup. Now, I can understand powdering one’s nose in public, but this woman spent a good 45 minutes applying all kinds of makeup. She was going at her face with brushes, pencils, lipsticks and powder with such vigor she took several breaks just to rest.
Ladies, that’s annoying.
