Train Wreck

This kid on the train he's listening to his ipod singing real loud and obnoxious just annoying everyone on the train. He was trying to sing a rap song so he starts bopping his head, swaying his body back and forth acting like he was at home in his own personal space.

So this man gets tired of him so he walks over to him he said what the F@$% is wrong with you. I gotta come out my seat to come over hear because you acting like damn fool. I paid for my ride just like everybody else and I don't wanna hear that sh*t and I'm sure nobody else wanna hear it either, they ain't gonna say nothing but I am. So the kid is like well I'm a kid and you're an adult mister you can't talk to me like that. He said yeah I'm an adult and I can say anything I want, I didn't tell you shut the f@#% up did I the kid said but you just did. Everybody starts laughing.

I tried not to laugh but it was too funny. So the kid he starts talking crap to the man and his friend sitting next to him she kept telling him alright alright just shut up don't say nothing. The man continues to talk he said you know what you acting like a nigger an ignorant person, you just trying to get attention and you need to grow up. Because the kid is with his friend he starts acting cool like he didn't care what the man was saying so he continues bopping his head and swaying back and forth mad hard.

When the man reached his stop the kid got out of his seat, waited untill the door closed then he knocked on the door as the train pulled off and pointed his middle finger to the man.

The damn trains late again. It seems like every other day the L train line is doing some kind of reconstruction or what not. Sometimes it gets really frustrating waiting for the train to arrive then when it does it moves extra slow then I start to feel like I'm moving in slow motion. I want to start cursing at the damn conductor but I don't want to be escorted off the train by New York City's finest.

On my regular commute home, I stood waiting for the L train I had just missed one, this lady walks up to me and asks does this train go to Canarsie I said yes. Then she says how much did you pay for your sneakers I said fifty she said do you have a job I said yes she said because most kids spend 175 dollars on sneakers and their parents are paying for them, when they get older and have to work they don't spend that much on sneakers.

I said yeah but I haven't spend that much on sneakers since I was younger she says oh but there nice though I said thank you. Then I heard the announcement for the next train arrival and I walked to the end of the platform hoping to avoid her because she looks like one of those people who liked to spark up conversations with strangers on the train and I really didn't feel like talking I just wanted to listen to some music and get home to get something to eat.

When I got to my seat she follows me into the same car and sits next to me I said to myself this is going to be a long ride. Then she starts talking about my earrings, where did you get those from I hope its not downtown Brooklyn I said yes. I guess she didn't catch my clue because I had my earphones in my ears and I was turning it up louder and louder. She said because they were selling 14k gold but it was really 10k and they were doing that since I was little. I said I wasn't planning on buying jewelry downtown anymore, then there was this weird silence for a while and finally it was my stop I got off and said what a weird ride.

NEW SUBWAY RULES "It is a violation to move between end doors of a subway car whether or not train is in motion, except in an emergency or when directed by police officer or conductor"

I'm on the J -Train a passenger sits next to me it looks like he's just getting off from work because his clothes are all tainted with paint, maybe he's a carpenter or something. Then as the train starts to get overcrowded passengers start to exit to another car but there are police officers in the subway watching.

This one man goes through first and the police officers automatically tells the him to get off the train. We are all looking like whats going to happen then the door closes and about five other people goes through the car door. As the train pulls off I can see that the police officers let the man go but he was pissed off because they made him miss his train.

Today yet again I saw another man getting arrested for fare evasion. He was surrounded by four police officers I couldn't even describe to you the embarrassment he felt as everyone entering the train station stared at him as the female police officer wrote him a ticket. Is it worth it two dollars vs. a twenty five to one hundred dollar ticket. Think about it. Anyone who has been caught trying not to pay for their subway ride knows how humiliating it can feel. Imagine what people are thinking about you as they pass by. Some might even point and laugh. Is the crime worth the humiliation? Signing out
