Today, on my metro ride home, I sat next to a woman who thought it was appropriate to continually scratch at her scalp and then eat her 'scalp pickings'. When I looked over at her hair, I could see scabs clumped together from her previous scratching sessions. FML

While it is a public system and I'm bound to encounter plenty of 'weird' people, I would still never expect a 50 something year old professional woman to be picking at her scalp and then eating whatever it is she picks out. And while none of her pickings ended up on me, one good head shake would have changed that very quickly. It would have been Christmas in my lap in May!

She could have an OCD disorder where she can't help it...don't be so quick to judge people.

As a fellow WMATA "patron," I definitely say fyl, OP. I've seen some shit on the Metro before, but that's pretty terrible.

I know that it might sound disgusting but it's likely this woman has a disorder and is too disgusted at herself for doing it. It's bad enough that she's got to put up with the scabs and the probable pain of what she does and I don't think it helps that people are not sensitive to it and are repulsed
