Simple solution: require all metro riders to completely shave their entire bodies. And it would help the sale of hats to keep all of the bald heads warm.

Heck! I’ve got a kitty, and it’s shedding season for her Winter coat. My house looks like felt!

I would take off and nuke it from orbit. It’s the only way to be sure.

It's not just hair and fibers -- dust and debris also are gathering, according to Sherlock.

I don’t think that “vulgar” is the proper word-—Mr. Sherlock should invest in a good old-fashioned dictionary.

Must have been some boxer dogs down there............they oddly enough have about 15,000 hairs on each square inch of their skin.
When I vacuum my carpets nearly every day this is very apparent.

It’s a very clean subway. Go to NYC and compare.

My same thoughts when I saw that word being used. Does hair ever act refined, or in any manner ever? Does hair talk about lewd & lascivious topics? Perhaps that is the real cause of people hearing voices to tell them to commit criminal acts.
Gross or disgusting would have been my choices, and probably in that order, if not used together with the conjunction and. 8>)

I'm just kidding about all of this.
I'm just waiting for the Steeler game tonight and making silly comments about something I know nothing about (subways).
I do know that it is said that boxer dogs have 15,000 hairs per square inch ........ and that's a bunch of hair.
Yoi, Double Yoi! This is Myron Cope on your nerves.
