Need a Hand?
Your Next Project Starts with Brownstoner
As per BRG, I am thanking all of the little people (her words, not mine) for congratulating me on my NYT quotes.
I am nothing, if not appreciative.

Dibs – then you are totally within the rules of the subway handbook I go by!
the worst is a crowded train and someone who is sitting has their leg crossed and the people standing then can’t fit correctly because this idiot still has their leg crossed
OH – I can go on and on
What about the pole hogger – yes that person who thinks it’s totally OK to lean against the pole while 4 people easily could hold on to that pole but now can’t because your lazy ass has to lean on it and read the paper!
UGH!
I also had words with a guy on the 4 train who was pushing on a crowded train and he responded “You white people don’t rule the world anymore, you know” I responded that ‘That was a stupid f^&*ing thing to say.” He later apologized for saying it but in hindsight I regret not having pursued the discussion further. it certainly caught the attention of a lot of other riders.
gemini…I was standing so yes, it stayed on my shoulder. They were seated and it really shouldn’t have been an issue to them except to be typical NYC complainers.
Misterbubble;
Bravo! Godspeed, and may the Bubble-force be with you.
DIBS – too funny
but are you seriously saying you kept the bag on your shoulder and not in your lap??!?!?!
Rob – God yes the F is a mess – a hot mess – awful!
InsertSnappy – hahaha – Pop Champagne -is a song I am all too involved in. That rick Astley moment is priceless
Liebchen = sweetheart
misterbubble = frothy
misterbubble thanks you for your concern, benson. given the brouhaha over future bubbles, it is imperative that misterbubble is there.

Some woman complained to her partner (both seated mind you) the other day as I boarded the train and stood, that no one takes their bag off their shoulder. I told her that if she was talking to me that I wasn’t going to put it on the floor and if she wanted to hold it then she could.
