new york metro

SOO i'm riding the new york subway to meet my father at work, and couldn't help but over hear this guy talking on his cell phone. Well that was the exact problem. EVERYBODY within that car, ipod on or not, couldn't not hear this Loud ass dude .Loud people is one thing, but this fellow was loud and wrong. "SO YEA I HAD THIS BITCH PINNED AGAINST THE WALL SON. HA HA. YEA NIGGA!! SO I HAD IT FROM THE BACK RITE..HA HA YOU ALREADY KNOW KID!!! BEAT IT UP BEAT IT UP!!" I usually just SMH and chuckle at blatant niggerishness..but with the first black presidents inauguration around the corner, i feel as though black people should be carrying themselves with more of a sense of dignity and pride. I felt bad looking at the mother who looked like she wanted to shelter her daughters ears from the filth being spewed from that dumb ass dude's mouth. But it aint just new york metro. Loud niggas is everywhere.

Then we have the little black youth selling candy. He had his shit on point though. he left such an impression on me i had to place a reminder in my blackberry to blog him as i ate my twix. lls. So he goes from car to car on like every train line with the same script. " hello my name is .... and i am 12 years old. i am not selling this candy for skool or for a basketball team, i am selling this candy to keep me out of trouble and to put a little money in my pocket.." u gotta love his hustle at such a young age.

Last but not least we have the crazy lady that proceeded to accost everyone on the train. so she starts at the opposite end of the car and works her way towards me. everyone ignores her for the most part. she doesn't necessarily look poor but looks like she got a few coins from folks. so she gets to my end and looks at the girl next to me I mean really stared her down. she looks away and goes.. "Do you know the Muffin Man GoD Damnit!!!????" i couldn't really keep a strait face, but didn't laugh. so she looks at me and goes "wait a minute. u gregory's son? i looked at my phone and played brick breaker. WOW. craziest 30 minutes spent in a while. lls
