I feel like I am running into the most bitchy people on the subway lately. I mean this week!
There seem to be an especially high number of moody bitches causing problems on the train. For what ever reason, it has still be crowded in the morning even though many schools are off this week. So [...]

Ok, so can we discuss how f-ed up the past couple days of subway ridership have been?
