For some reason this morning, I was alert on the train. I’m not sure if it was being mortified by the fact I went ? the morning with my fly open or that the woman who sat next to me had the absolute most nauseating perfume. Whichever the case may be, I witnessed something quite […]

    why is it that the slowest moving people always drive in the fast lane in morning rush hour traffic??? It seems like I’m always the lucky one to get stuck behind one of them. This morning I was behind some jackass who did no more than 45mph and had about 2 car lengths of space […]

    I’m tired of tourists with luggage so large they’d need a crane to lift it to the overhead rack. So they take up floor space or a seat. Or put it on the floor in front of a seat. If I was a double-amputee, I’d have a perfect seat!
    I’m tired of Very Important People who […]

    When walking on a crowded street at rush hour, please do not stick your arm out at a 45-90-degree angle from your body and flap it around as if you’re powerwalking. What you don’t realize is that on a narrow street, you can take up a whole sidewalk doing that, and people can’t get past […]

    Moronic Virginia Jaguar drivers should be taken out back and shot! I was on my way to lunch earlier and some moron in a Jag starts to merge right. No signal of course. She was about three inches away from the side of her car scaping the side of mine. You can be sure I […]

    Ripper, you have been uncommonly quiet for some time. What’s up? Everything okay?

    I was on a train coming back from NYC and the person next to me falls asleep. After we pass New Brunswick, he wakes up and asks me where we are. I say that we are between New Brunswick and Princeton Junction. Then he gets mad at me because I didn’t wake him up before […]

    I am waiting on an early train for a meeting and the 6.38 from Dunellen is operating 25 minutes late due to mechanical difficulties. Thanks NJT and fuck you!

    Can someone please tell me the most efficient way to get from hoboken rail terminal to 46th & Lex? I’ve mapped out a few ways to get there just from mta.com, but I’d like some feeback from those who actually walk the beat. I’m moving there from downtown in a month. Thanks.
