Poor Ally. Nothing is more mortifying than being stuck on a Metro train and knowing that you are the cause for the delay.
Unfortunately, I have been on Metro cars where the puke is still fresh. I've never had the displeasure of witnessing the act myself on the train, but smelling it on the way to work is almost as bad. I know this is a common problem across all subway systems, but most subways cars aren't carpeted like our good old DC Metro. Puke tends to seep into the carpet the longer it sits there. And since Metro stations don't have carpet cleaners on hand, that shit stays there for a good long while making everyone who steps into that car increasingly uncomfortable.
God, I fucking hate the Metro.

PANEL 2
KANE: Some sick fuck puked on the train in front of us so we had to wait in the tunnel for like a whole half a fuck hour!
KANE: Hwarf!

KANE: Oh, hey Ally. Man, you look wrecked.
ALLY: [mumbles incomprehensibly]
PANEL 4
BODIE: Whoa. Is she speaking in tongues?
KANE: You okay?
Ally: I... kinda... puked on the Metro.
