If you were worried we were the only ones thinking about today's Metrocard increase you can stop (also, why would you think that?). Ever-popular Taiwanese animation outfit Next Media Animation is covering the story too. We would normally let this one go—these videos suffer from serious diminishing returns—but the fact that this particular clip not only calls out subway flasher Dan Hoyt (here with a large carrot) but also boasts a guest spot from WPIX's Greg Mocker as an angry commuter made it seem special enough to share.
