Subway (No, Not the Fake Tuna Sandwich Story)

You'd think the main benefit for having an underground train service would be the ability to continue no matter how bad the weather is, but according to this article here the only NYC subways running now with over a foot of snow on the ground are the above-ground ones so now my mind is fucking blown.

Which of course gives me a reason to highlight a few of the zillion posts I've had about the subway, including:

Train door douchebag guy
Hipster douchebag bag guy
Coffee douchebag guy
Metrocard douchebags
iPod douchebags
Cock-blocking douchebags
Slow-moving motherfucking douchebags
Of course the subway is the single greatest setting for nangulance, including

and

But rest assured - I'll never give up my train platform dream:
The next thing on my to-do list is to show up at subway platforms and stare in the wrong direction for the train. Ever see anyone do this? Doesn't it drive you bananas? At any given moment there's 10 or 15 people staring intensely down the tracks into the tunnel; I'm gonna stare right back in their direction, looking annoyed "where the fuck is this train??!!!" One, they'll start getting pissed cause it's some dude looking in their face. Then they start thinking doesn't this dude know which way the fucking train comes? Then they're really pissed and think doesn't this dude see that everybody else is staring in the other direction??!! And me, staring, shaking my head "where the fuck is this train?" just as their heads fucking explode into a thousand pieces.
