If you thought your morning commute was horrible, be glad you weren’t among the New York City subway riders who had the recent pleasure of traveling with some slithering legless passengers.

Earlier this month, two snakes were spotted on and in a backpack on the F train between the 7th and 9th Street stops in Brooklyn’s Park Slope. 

 “I mean, it’s so uncool that the snakes are taking up three spaces!” wrote the person who tipped off Gothamist to the incident. “Snake-spread anyone?”

Gosh, these reptiles are just as annoying as open-legged men

Is this better or worse than running into a dead shark on the subway? You tell us.
