SUBWAY FOLK: Subway Transmitted Diseases
This is how it spreads. IT. Remember?
The audacity of this woman! And, the ignorance of this man! It’s astounding. After she shoved those filthy potato chips down her throat, they totally macked. It’s a good thing I hadn’t had much to eat — I only dry heaved.
But, when their kids are born with scrotums for chins, we’ll all know why. So, I better not catch any of you engaging in the same behavior — uh, both eating on the train AND having babies with Peter Griffin chins, I guess.
Shudder.
Art, worse than those that eat on the subway are the ones who can’t stand to touch the subway poles with their hands. They sort of awkwardly crook their wrists around the poles and always stand the good chance of landing flat on their faces during a sudden stop or start. Which would defeat the whole sanitary thing.
Or, are you one of those crooked wrist people?
I went through a limp wrist-ed phase in college. does that count guys?
I don’t know, Anna. I agree with you that those who won’t even touch the support poles look ridiculous, but I at least understand where their coming from. People who eat snacks with their bare hands?! There’s no excuse.
And, phase, Michael?
I KID, I KID!
Ugh. THEY’RE coming from… I mean. That was terrible.
as children we all do a lot of unhygienic things and sure we get ear infections and have snotty noses all the time but it doesn’t kill us. it makes us stronger! so now, maybe if you’re NOT eating snacks on the subway with bare hands you’re actually diminishing your immunity against germs.
did you know that those hand sanitizers that americans LURVE actually only kill about 80% of the germs and the rest can go on to multiply unfettered by competition? (my bio teacher told me this–it’s true.)
