I Saw You On The MTA

I like to watch people on the MTA.
Why So Sad?
Hey guy! Cheer up!  Are you sad because you are wearing an imitation Member’s Only Jacket?  It sucks that no one listens to you.  You asked them for one for your birthday and they bought you an iphone.  iPhone’s are cool, but its not a sweet sweet jacket.  You asked and practically begged before Christmas for the jacket again, and with the holiday spirit in their hearts, your family bought you a jacket.  But alas! Its a fake! An imposter!  You resort to drinking imitation coffee (that cup should have this logo on it).  Well cheer up pal or your life will spiral out of control and you will no longer be able to see what is right and wrong, what is light and what is dark, what is tasty and what is not so good to eat because it tastes bad.  You look sharp in your jacket, and you should feel good about yourself.

(that haircut is rediculous though!)

Sleepy Baseball Lovers
When I saw you sitting back, lulled to sleep by the persistent rumbling of the steel wheels of the F train, I was comforted by your love for eachother…HAHAHAHA.  Oh man!  I cant even say that previous sentence without erupting in laughter.  You guys look rediculous!  Maybe i could have looked past the socks, and pompoms, and tie, and offensively bright orange apparel.  But its not cool to look so cute.  It’s gross.  But most of all I hate baseball, but shit…I love Shoeless Joe Jackson!

Woman With BreakfastI’m glad i saw you this morning.  You reminded me of the importance of a balanced breakfast.  I have been told all my life how important breakfast is, whether by my mother, a school nurse, or Toucan Sam, i have always ignored the message.  I have neglected the need to start my day with a body filled with the nutrients it requires to power me through the day!  However from now on I won’t!  I know I will never be able to thank you for helping me live a nutritious lifestyle, but… thank you :-)

Hispanic Man with Important Load
I saw you on the subway this evening. I’m glad your backpack was secured around your torso. Because judging from you serious, glaring stare, I know you are carrying very precious cargo. Could it be a gift for your wife or daughter? Possibly some delicate groceries for the evening meal. Most likely it is very valuable. I hope you got where you were going with what you were bringin safely.
