Am I wrong to think that’s an NYC moment?
I love the place but I’ve seen some stuff there that I’ve never seen anywhere else. We were in town for a Yankee game and we had to catch a subway from mid town to the Stadium. Our timing was bad (typical tourist mistake) and we tried to get on the subway around rush hour. The car was packed so we decided to wait but this guy in front of us went up to the still open doors and started screaming for everyone to move in. He was right in the face of this very pregnant woman and she started yelling right back at him. This is happening with the usual clackety clack and horrific metal on metal scraping of other subway cars going by plus all the other sensory overload that NYC subways bless you with. These two are still going at it when this very urbane-looking gentleman next to the woman looks down at the screaming guy on the platform, casually waves his hand toward the people already in the car, and calmly asks, “Where, sir, would you have us go?”
I thought he was gonna ask the guy on the platform if he had any Grey Poupon.
