mah ringtonez, i plays it for you

Props to the dude who played his multiple ringtone snippets and sang along. I was beginning to feel like listening to my ipod wasn't enough...and then you came along with your cellular telephone and sang all the current hits on 106 and park.

THANK YOU.

oh it burns!

yesterday i watched a girl splash hot coffee* on her face as the train lurched to a start before she sat down.


* That's what she gets for buying coffee from mickey d's - dunkin' donuts por vida.


Also, does anyone else feel like their hair might catch on fire from those heating lamps? note to self: easy on the product.

I'm quite sure that the woman sitting next to me on the green line was drinking beer from the blue cup she had....miller high life to be exact*




* I'm just that good

let me clear mah throat...

When i was headed northbound on the redline this morning, a girl was sitting across from me while i was standing - which is typical behavior when you are on a train, to you know, like, sit and stuff. But then she whipped out her coco butter stick and proceeded to rub the stick on her lips, then around her lips, then the entire bottom part of her face. WHUT?!

Don't get me wrong, i'm all about moisturizing. it's one of those important things that will be the determining factor of whether or not you will be a cougar in your later years or just an old wrinkly hag. I was just dumbfounded by her doing it in public in such a dramatic way and all around her face. No one likes chapped lips, but it wasn't deathly cold with windchills for her to really need to smear the butta on her cheeks. I'm sorry babygirl, but that is not the business.

What was worse, is that after she completed her "beauty regimen", she proceeded to hack, snort and whinny for the next two stops until i got off the train. As far as i know, she could still be channeling the aura of mr. ed. And though some mistake the train as a toilet, rubbing coco butter on your mug and hacking up phlegm is best left for your own bathroom.

"They push that girl in front of a train Took her to a doctor, sewed the arm on again"

Some real grandmaster flash shit overheard on the train today:

Apparently, a girl got her hand caught in the door and stayed that way from Laramie to Central on the green line. That's only one stop, but even one second caught in a death grip is too long. The emergency release didn't work when pulled and when the conductor was paged to open the door, he couldn't because the train was already in motion.

I immediately stopped cursing the gods for not making my train go express.

After hearing this, a noticed someone quietly singing along to their ipod. It was a black girl [I'm going to assume a girl...with a fade...and men's clothing]. When I got up to leave, I noticed that she was totally rocking out to some Melissa Ethridge video. Nice.

spread 'em

A man [that I would assume was homeless] on the redline last night decided to have a snack. Chunky peanut butter and saltine crackers - using a pair of orange scissors as his "knife".

I never thought of scissors as a way to get your spread on ["Yo man, lemme get a lil of that brie wit deez fiskars"], but I really admired the guy for his creativity in spite of his limited resources. A couple sitting across from him weren't as impressed...they decided that staring in disgust was better form. So I stared at them for staring...they didn't like it.


There was another dude at the other end of the car talking jive with random people next to him [who were nice enough to entertain his conversation]. He was rocking some RayBan knock offs and carrying a pink backpack. At one point, he took off his shades and exclaimed "I'm a lil handsome, ain't I?!?!". His audience agreed.
