Not having to fuck girls on the subway was one advantage the non-city kids had. Instead, we got to imagine fucking them in our cars.

I would also point out that despite having every opportunity to excel, most of the kids at this school don't seem very smart, and their parents sure seem to spend a lot of energy on their organic/gluten free, diets than their brains. Those would be the white people, if I'm being honest. The Asian and Indian parents beat their kids, and it shows in their math scores. Sometimes the old ways are the best ways.

When your kid tried to eat with em's left hand, did you hit the hand, hard?

I was visualizing a center platform that went to the side of the car, but they're thinner?

I'm sure she just whipped her vagina out, right on the El.

Of course she did. She's a hooker. I see that every day.

My parents made me sign a contract that I'd carpool my three younger siblings wherever they needed to go if I got to drive the car. It was an awesome deal for my parents. 1982 Saab 900 (also went airborne a few times), and the only thing that consistently worked was the seat warmer.

I never subway surfed. I was stupid, but not that fucking stupid.

I have ridden on the back of subway trains and jumped between cars but never been on the tracks.

Does the NYC subway have a live third rail?

With chopsticks? Of course we did.

It's interesting seeing all you guys talk about being given a car as no big deal. But, like I said, I suppose if I grew up in the 'burbs, I would understand that 'if you don't have a car, you might as well be dead because you can't go anywhere' phenomenon. Hell, it might be a gift more for yourself than your kid since it gives you the freedom to not drive them places.

When I graduated from high school, my parents sold my Hornet for $250 and took my brothers to get new sneakers.

I'm not sure I understand what you're saying. Or maybe you don't understand what I'm saying.

Subway platforms are longer than the length of the train. If you have arrived on the platform and the doors to the train have just closed, you have a small amount of time in which you can jump between cars on trains that look like this:

If you look closely, there are two lines of chains. You have to grab hold of the bars above the first line of chains, jump over those chains and land with one foot on each train. Then, you have to unhook the second line of chains in order to access the doors that lead to the actual train car. Sometimes those doors are locked, so that people can't walk from one car to another. This leaves you in the position of riding to the next stop between cars and then having to hop out like you hopped in to go through the normal doors. See below (although this type of car is very old, you get the idea):

Now you're depressing me. I wanted a car so bad in high school because I knew I'd just have sex in it all. the. fucking. time.
