Flip it!: A young man and an older woman AREthere at the bus stop.

and is used to connect two nouns to form a compound subject

you should treat these two nouns as an integrated plural ones

you rule is not broken here

maybe a more easy way to tackle with the subject-verb agreement issue is to flip such structure（not to remember to rule without understanding）；just like the example given by manhattan

there is a young man at the bus stop / there are women at the bus stop （these two isolated examples are still right）

Kinda got it...
Well...There is a pen and two pencils on the desk. vs There are two pencils and a pen on the desk. Am I supposed to use ARE in both two sentences above, since the word AND forms a compound subject?

Thanks a lot!! XD
