^ That's how a lot of the people at my school are.

I bought a chicken plate, and was eating it. 'cause I wasnt able to leave for lunch, and there were a few people like "OMG, you have been here too long!", "You're definitely Sherrill's material now", and "YOU LIKE FRIED CHICKEN!?"
That was a fun day. haha

Young woman: I paid them a little bit. They paid for Mark to go to a 50 thousand dollar drug rehab and recovery program, so I think they'll be willing to loan us a thousand.
Man: Maybe, but he was taking it up the butt for crack. I think that's a whole different scenario.

Conductor: Ladies and gentlemen, due to an earlier incident, all Sixth Avenue line trains are running over the Eighth Avenue line. Please be patient.
Confused tourist lady: What does that even mean? I don't understand.
Suit: It means that if you want to take any of the trains on the orange line you transfer at the next station like normal, but instead of going downstairs you just wait on that platform for the train you want.
Middle-aged woman across aisle: They're not orange line trains. It's the B, the D, the F and the V. Real New Yorkers don't call it the orange line.
Suit: Hey, lady, f**k you. There, is that New York enough for ya?
