I'm going to become the Robert Moses of trains, and drive a goddamn line through the street of each one of these finance dickwads that think they're too good to take the fucking train. (hexbear.net)

If they really want to drive an suv through lower Manhattan, how about we install a fucking sphinx that they have to answer to lest they be eaten

Okay, if you want that, you, Hempstead town, have to pay for all the roads in NYC. And I don’t just mean the cost of paving them, I mean the land value.

Oh what’s that? You can’t afford to spend that much money so you can drive your precious pavement princess? Yeah neither than the city you fucking morons, take the fucking train or better yet don’t go into the city at all, stay in fucking Hempstead.

Best part is, all this noise is being made to cater to a small privilege minority l.

Oh ffs it’s not even the entire island it’s just lower manhattan? They really are the whiniest babies on earth.

Why the fuck would you even want to drive there, being in a car in lower manhattan is hell on earth!

It’s this weird dynamic where most of the commuters in the NYC metro area are perfectly happy to avoid the hell that is driving if public transit is an option for them, but the handful who choose to drive anyway are the most terminally carbrained people alive.

Carbrains are so weird.

They love their cars, but can't seem to fully enjoy them unless EVERYONE drives too, like they need constant reassurance of how normal they are. Then again, these are the dimwits that also enjoy being forced to pay for insurance that will do nothing, ever.
