WHAT EXACTLY IS THE PROBLEM
Have you, like me, found yourself under a constant barrage of good-looking strangers who nod to you with a secret smile? Tired of the day-to-day conundrum of whether to nod and smile back, or just look away without expression? Here are 3 uptown trains where good-looking strangers never nod to you with a secret smile.
THE L EXPRESS
Although you may encounter strangers who nod to you with a secret smile on the L Express, they are certainly not good-looking.
14 PEABODY
The 14 Peabody train is known for its extremely grouchy passengers. Nearly all of these people are headed for demeaning jobs or houses full of children who wet the bed.
JULIET CIRCLE
On the Juliet Circle light rail you can finally sit back, breathe a sigh of relief, and enjoy the ride: it is in fact posted that it is against the law to nod to people with a secret smile on this train, and there are security agents aboard every single car to ensure that people are not nodding and smiling obscurely. Nodding with a secret smile is a misdemeanor that could carry a fine of as much as $150,000 and 60 days in prison. The only problem is that the ride is only about 15 minutes.
Get off, cross the platform, and do it again?
