Reminds me more of the London tube stations than any of the NYC subway stations of today, likely due to a combination of respect and lack of bodily waste/trash.

I ride the NYC subway every day and am always surprised at how poorly the stations are treated. People throw wrappers on the tracks so calmly and confidently as if they were designated to collect waste. Puddles of urine are not uncommonly found. It baffles me. I don't know where that attitude comes from.
- w1ntermute 13y agoNew York in general is just dirty. It's a place to visit, not to live in.

- w1ntermute 13y agoNo, reality in NYC is dirty. The rest of the country isn't. It's always amazed me how New Yorkers think their city of 8 million defines a country of 330 million.
- duaneb 13y agoIt doesn't at all define america, but the rest of the country is literally built on dirt. May as well embrace it. Maybe it's because I grew up in the country but living on a garbage pile doesn't really phase me after poking at animal carcasses in my childhood.
- w1ntermute 13y agoThere's a whole lot of difference between soil and trash, even if both can also be referred to as "dirt".
