What do you want, a metal? I am also at that station every day, I live two blocks from it. Clearly I typed the wrong f*cking letter. I transfer from the N to the R as part of my commute.
Calm down. Was simply saying it had to be the N train because the R doesn't go there.
I would correct the misspelling but looks like someone else called you on that anyway.
Yesterday I was on the train going from the N to the L. I get on the L and I see one chick texting while practically lying down across one of those 2 seaters in the ends of the car. Granted, the train was not crowded, but it was about to, and she didn't even bother looking up, just sat there with the sense of entitlement that she deserved the entire seating area made for at least 2 people.
I scoffed at her, and scared the crap out of the guy across from her. I just laughed. I swear I am just going to start taking pictures of these violators and posting them.
uhh, yes, everyone DOES pay their fare--that fare entitles you to ONE SEAT. If your big ass is taking up two seats, get up! If you're pregnant, different story--I'd put that in the same category as a disability (albeit a temporary one). But just overweight? No, I'm sorry, you do not have a right to two seats on a crowded car. This is why some airlines are having obese passengers pay for two seats.
We are not on an airline numnuts, which is a private business.
The subway is pubilc transportation which is supported by MY taxes, as it is by every so thought obsese person.
Moreover, how is it that you decide what is and who is obsese?
How is it that you decide the size of a seat?
Again, are you suggesting the 6'3", 280lb man is "obese, and should give up his seat; or, is it just the 5'5' 180lb woman?
Or, is it the general 'poor' you wish to exclude? It is the 'poor' who the statistics define as the majority of the so thought obeses?

Pasty little mini WG wants to define the world....
Why stop at the obese?
Frankly, Tourists and Transplants are far more annoying and obstructive than anyone else, save the crazy kids with no home training.

Pregnancy is NOT a disability!
It is a chosen physical state which can be avoided. If one chooses to be pregnant, your choice does not entitle you to anything more than a non pregnant person. It is as simple as that.
If the subway is your only means of transportation and you cannot afford another more convenient method of transport, then obviously you have made a poor choice in getting pregnant. Not my problem!

Today as I was getting onto the R train at 18th avenue at about 7:30 this morning, the jackass lady in front of me gets partially on the train, STOPS at the door, in the middle of the doorway (barely even in the damn car) and is looking around the car for a seat. Really?? You stop IN THE DOORWAY during rushhour, so no one can get around you, to strategize about which seat you want? REALLY???
Needless to say, people coming in through the other doors took the remaining seats while she was mulling it over, and I pushed into her and went past her, and ended up getting the last seat on the train :-)
and what about people who walk slooooowly up the steps. Come on! people have places to go, what the hell are you doing?
Yeah, this is what I was kvetching about earlier, some people really move in their own world, like no one else exists or counts around them.
This guy posts photos/video of every day annoyances on the subway...
