Fun fact, the NYC metro moves more people daily than ALL flights in the entire continental US by a wide margin, I think it is close to twice the amount of people.

3.5M vs 7.54M in my shithole. My shithole is Moscow btw.
wow, didn't know that, I had no idea Moscow has such a big metro system that is a lotttt of people
That fact is mind blowing, but in no way is that fact fun. Hula hoops are fun.
The NYC Metro moves a number of hula hoops greater than 0 per year.
Does that include the people who don’t pay? Because that number might still be way bigger than it already is. A not insignificant amount of people jump the turnstile. Almost no one pays for the busses. The “emergency door” opens when someone walks out with shit in their hand? Probably ten people slip in lol
Gotta love that one of the most powerful cities on earth with empty luxury apartments rising into a speculative sky above homeless and the precariously homed (one rent raise away from eviction) is so full of rich miserly conservatives that the everybody has to pay to use one of the most efficient collective forms of transport on the planet. It is like charging people to use an escalator, but even dumber because making mass transit free supercharges commerce by putting a couple extra bucks in the pocket of everyone who uses it (to inevitably spend at the coffee shop, or grocery store, or restaurant… economy go brrrr).
Jump those turnstiles fam, the rich are stealing so much from you that you could jump turnstiles all day like an Olympic hurtle jumper and it wouldn’t even begin to settle the score, at this point no amount of money can.
Well, while I wholeheartedly agree with you, there are routinely like 2-6 cops hiding and waiting for someone to jump and not pay the $2.90.

I was just hearing from someone who saw 8 cops run after some kid who jumped the turnstile. All heil mayor Landleech and his blue overtime army.
Man's sitting like he's been castrated
You're physically allowed to cross your legs, even as a guy. Your masculinity can't be emaciated by the way you sit.
Sitting cross legged is so comfortable and can convey so much emotions. I don't know why anyone would see it as feminine
Because it is comfortable and conveys emotions. If you are not uncomfortable and push those emotions down till you reach the point of critical hear failure, you are not acting masculine.
Ah. "If it's good it's femine". Got it, knuckleheads.
You knucklehead.
