Hearing another language on the subway.

The other week I was riding the subway, and there were two (older) (Asian) people sprawled out each on one side of the car in the forward facing seats there, and they were wearing knit caps and clothing that was a bit dirty, and they both were talking very very loudly.

(I think they were Vietnamese.)

Anyhow, when the one guy on the right finished a couple very loud, very slow sentences, he was talking very very loudly on an otherwise quiet car, and somehow the last word he uttered was something like -

COCK!

- and the word just hung out there for everyone to hear, as he stopped talking.
