Alright grumpy, calm down. I'll repeat the question: what happened? That's as much energy as I'm willing to give the weak crying.
Literally 1.7 billion rides on the NYC subway system in 2019, it seems to work great for us. I dress in weird shiny rubber clothes sometimes while going to a party or whatever, I get looks of curiosity or derision from other passengers sometimes, and I don't give a shit. Are you just that sensitive?
