A person on the subway:

A (large) (older) (white) man with unkempt white hair and in a rumpled shirt and shorts, with big sunglasses on, who holds his head like he's looking out blankly at stuff, and after he's there for a while, I notice a weirdly strong undertone of cigarettes in the car that makes me vaguely nauseated as I do my crossword, and as I continue to do my crossword, he starts jiggling his feet as he's sitting just opposite of me, so his feet are in motion just above where my eyes are as I try to do my crossword.

After a bit, I think the cigarette smell is him, so I get up when the subway rolls into the stop, and go and move down the car.
