Never a dull moment in the NYC Transit system! Here we have a fascinating little vignette captured by YouTube user 90zBeenz. Uploaded two days ago, the short video stars a man in a suit whom Mr. Beenz characterizes as "drunk," striking up a conversation with a fellow straphanger. We join our story already in progress, when the one they call "HOT HOT HOT Daddy" discovers he has something in common with his recoiling seatmate: They're both from Brooklyn... aaaand that's where the common ground appears to end:
Well, have a safe and pleasant commute home, everybody! And if you see something, don't just say something—turn your cellphone SIDEWAYS and document it.
