First off I love New York, I really do.



This is the only place in the world where you can be pissed off at someone, see something else and be like "WTF" and then be happy and contempt all within a few minutes time.


For example I was walking through the subway station in midtown one day, trying to get to work. As usual there were hundreds of people with the exact same plan, at the exact same time.


I know what you are thinking. Your first thought is "Amazing, you all have great jobs, in a great city and get to be working as real New Yorkers." Ugh, no. I believe we are all the assholes who failed miserably in elementary school when the teacher asked us what we want to be growing up.


Nobody said to their teacher "I want to be grow up to be a corporate douche bag that screws people out of their money for a living all day, or work at Macy's selling tiny woman’s lingerie to the fat bastard hopefully trying to win his secretary over. Or else he was using it for his second job, as a male escort on Craigslist".


Anyways like I was saying, I was walking through the subway station in midtown one day, trying to get to my reality, as wonderful as it is. Then all the sudden a homeless man asked me for a dollar. My first thought was this guy is shooting a little high, maybe he should start off with asking for a dime or a quarter at eight o'clock in the morning, but I guess he figured we all had not awoken from this nightmare of our lives yet this morning.


Well one of these corporate screwing douche bags I was talking about read my mind, and decided he was going to show his true colors to this guy. Instead of just ignoring him he said.


 "I work hard for my money I don't have money to spare on someone who obviously doesn't have the desire to work". In which the homeless man replied "I do work hard, my job is to beg for money and to make erectile dysfunction suits like you, feel better about themselves all day.


So needless to say my morning started off with being pissed off at the local pricks on the train, to thinking "WTF" with the conversation I witnessed. Then I emerged out of the train station, and who did I see waiting for me, handing out free coffee coupons to make me happy again.
