Check out these old school pics of the NYC subway. Interestingly enough, there are some subway cars that still look like this….minus the MCHammer haircuts, and blinding sweater patterns. The saxophone players are still there though. And the graffiti. Ohhhh the graffiti.
Pretty sure I saw this guy the other day.
Here’s something that’ll make you laugh at my own expense. So my hubby and I are addicted to this game on our iPhones. It’s called Word Scramble or something of that sort. The basic idea is you have to unscramble a series of letters and create multiple words before time runs out. It’s great and it makes me feel smart. Well, we both have the game on our iPhones and we’re constantly battling one another to see who can get the highest score. We’re both huge nerds.
Anyway, so the other day I was on a particularly long subway ride by myself and decided to try to rack up my score. The train was packed, but I was lucky enough to get a seat, score! When I’m in public, I always play the game with my headphones on because every time you create a word and press enter it announces the word out loud in a really excited computer animated voice. It’s like a little pat on your back from your iPhone. However, for some reason, this particular day I forgot to put my head phones on. I was stuck on a really challenging level from the day before and only had one more word to unscramble. I was racking my brain and seriously getting frustrated with myself. What the heck is this last word? Ummm? Ehhhh? Oooohh! I got it! Finally! And I was totally stoked because it was going to up my score to 25,000. Like I said, huge nerd. I had to get off at the next stop and I wanted to finish the round before I switched trains, so I quickly typed in the word and hit enter.
If I had one chance at a redo in life, I would have taken it at that moment.
Right then in front of a packed train of people, my iPhone decided to victoriously announce my final unscrambled word:
I froze, my face started turning lobster red. Did I seriously just do that? Was everyone staring at me? I was still looking down at my little phone that had just created the most embarrassing moment of my life. What were you thinking iPhone?? In front of all of these people?? I chose to continue not making eye contact with anyone on the train. As soon as the doors opened at my stop, I tried to casually walk off the train as if my iPhone didn’t just announce PENIS in public. Yea, I wasn’t fooling anyone. Needless to say, headphones will be a necessity for me from now on.
A: Hahahahahahahahahaha. I laughed out loud. What kind of X-rated Iphone application is this!?
