The grass is always more frequent on the other side

How often are you waiting for an F train (at Carroll or Bergen) and 2 G’s go by? You are like where the F is the F? It’s rush hour and there are a ton of people waiting for it and you get that nervous panic the moment you realize how crowded the train will be when it finally arrives.

Recently, I have been temping at an art institute in the Ft. Greene area, forcing me to commute via the G. I love it because it is way better than going into Midtown, yet I find my luck has reversed. I sit idly as F trains go by one after another open and inviting, plenty of seats, AC blasting, Led Zeppelin playing on the PA, a bunch of Scarlett Johansson clones handing out hover-boards topless.

Someday, I hope that my luck will line up with the MTA’s schedule and I will be able to skitch on the back of a car just like Marty McFly did.
