Forgot dude with a radio on his shoulder blasting shit music

Edit:shit music not shitting, ducking autocorrect

[–] AmazingAwesomator@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

what genre would you describe as shitting music? <3

[–] neidu3@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 month ago

Brown noise or bluegass.

[–] someguy3@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Give em the spocker.

TTC is a tranquil zen garden compared to the average NYC subway car

[–] spicytuna62@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Public transit really brings together all kinds of people. It breaks down barriers and allows people from a variety of backgrounds to mingle.

This is the kind of community unity every place needs. ♥️

That also explains why classist assholes viscerally hate it as a concept even though nobody's forcing them to use it themselves.

Here in Seattle, the positions of 7 &10 are swapped with those of 4, the local wildlife on the bus are all bees, and the couple having an uncomfortable argument is instead a homeless guy having an argument with the PSA posters over the doors.

[–] Onionguy@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago

That's a great username u got there.

[–] snailboy@lemm.ee 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

In T.O. it’d be a pigeon, not a rat, though. (Some would argue, ‘what’s the difference’, but, hey.)

[–] Num10ck@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

the difference is wings.

[–] AmazingAwesomator@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago (2 children)

as someone who has never been to NY, im surprised there are 5 free seats but people are standing.

[–] ThrowawayPermanente@sh.itjust.works 19 points 1 month ago (2 children)

If you stand you don't have to sit next to anybody

[–] Cheradenine@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Or in anything

Should I sit in the vomit or urine? Mebbe I'll just stand until 86th street

[–] Vent@lemm.ee 4 points 1 month ago

And a lot of the time you're only on the train for 5 mins or less.

[–] FearfulSalad@ttrpg.network 10 points 1 month ago

You'll notice that the 4s are all hugging the exits -- it's the most lucrative spot. Yes, you have to squeeze in when the doors open to let people in and out, but you also get to gtfo first. You're not subject to the Showtime kids doing flips, when the Mariachi band walks in you can run out to another car at the next stop, and you aren't in the urination/defecation areas. Sitting is a trap.

[–] grue@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Tag yourself!

I'm #6, but that's only because the couple and the mariachi band are blocking the spots I would've put my bike in.

Edit: actually to be fair, I'm only #6 in Atlanta. If I lived in NYC, I'd be able to justify owning a nice folding bike.

[–] neidu3@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

If I was there in NY I'd probably be #13

[–] TempermentalAnomaly@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

What... No one masturbating in the corner. This must be a rush hour train.

[–] LordWiggle@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

How many stops does the sleeping drunk kid have? I would expect he'd just have one. What is he doing so drunk that he has several stops?

[–] whatevercomeon@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

cta would be:

  1. Smoking Weed
  2. Smoking Cigarettes
  3. Opiate Nodding Etc

Replace rat with Pigeon

[–] higgsboson@dubvee.org 3 points 1 month ago

This is DC, but needs more clueless tourists.

[–] owl@infosec.pub 3 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)


With outlines and larger circles I find it easier to read.

[–] Onionguy@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Are there really rats IN tje subway cars too? Could a Nu Yokah plz confirm?

[–] Waffle@lemm.ee 4 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Never seen that personally.

By the color, I expected that dot to represent human waste.

[–] nightofmichelinstars@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 month ago

That's usually right in the middle of the car.

[–] Onionguy@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago

If you can poop there you can poop anywhere ig.

[–] atlien51@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago

I’d definitely be number 11

[–] Akasazh@feddit.nl 1 points 1 month ago

Is that rush hour?

[–] pseudo@jlai.lu 1 points 1 month ago

That rushhour?

[–] Gork@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

There is also the guy masturbating as well.

[–] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

That's Tokyo mate
