Tales from the metro: Chapter One

So... I was on the metro the other day and this guy gets up and was waiting in front of the door for the next stop. He then started scratching at an advertisement on the door window; which I didn't find that unusual. However, he kept scratching and then started on the other edge and proceeded to rip the whole advertisement off the window... Now, this ad wasn't anything I would consider offensive in any way, I think it was just a normal ad for a store. Then again, maybe he was an anarchist or something but he definatly didn't look like one; he was a middle aged man, dressed in a normal way-not shabby, not outlandish. So I was thinking maybe he collected ads as a hobby as he had some papers in his had I thought they might be ads as well. But no, he simply crumpled the ad up and got off the train...
