New Yorker Complains About 9 Minute Subway Waiting Time, Sparks Debate About US Public Transit
As somebody who spent their adolescence in a badly connected small town, one of the best things about moving to a city was the wonder that is public transport. Even now, I am genuinely thankful of the ability to go from A to B without worrying about calling a taxi, or bothering a friend for …

Entitled Influencer Complains When Pedestrians Walk in Front of Her Filming on a Busy Train Platform
If your idea of NYC or London is primarily shaped by what you see on TikTok, then you probably think that people who live there are getting stopped for on-the-street interviews every day of their lives.

Dude Lives the Dream After Buying Bread Artwork From Closing Down Subway for $25
I’m just going to come out and say it: a lot of people have the most boring taste when it comes to home décor. I don’t know what it is about color palettes that exclusively consist of gray, white, and beige that screams «homely» to so many, but it doesn’t always translate well. While I …

Urbanist Memes For Train Boys
By all metrics, I should be an urbanist. I grew up in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, one of the worst places to drive in the country. Those two cities are connected by miles and miles of seven-lane highways, making driving in that area a living nightmare. I miraculously didn’t get into a car crash when …

Woman Gets Dunked On For Being Against Smoking on a Train
I’m young enough that I don’t remember when it was legal to smoke indoors. It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia and South Park both covered the issue of banning smoking in bars in 2006 and 2003, respectively.
