  1. With all this new stuff the MTA will get, I'm surprised they've had the same runbox for over 20 years. The only LEDs I see are in the destination signs.
  2. Is all that guy going to do - post things about how the United States sucks and Europe (or Asia) are both better than the US at everything? It takes 20 countries to make a euro stand up to the dollar.
  3. That site's layout makes me want to punch people. They haven't come out of 1997 yet? Sadly, that's one of the few sites to get LI news.... and the same [drowned out by freight train on LIRR tracks] posts on all of those sites. I'd register on the site if I didn't need to pull an Indiana Jones to click on every reply to a thread. And get past all the CRIKEY posts.
  4. I have my English final Wednesday, Accounting AND Microeconomics next Monday, and Business Law the day after that. I'm not worried about English - I've been getting Bs on every paper and I aced my midterm. I'm worried more about Accounting and Micro because I bombed the second test in Accounting and only got a 70 on the first one.
  5. There's a ****ing duck in the Fresh Pond logo? I thought that was a stalk in front of a lilypad or something.
  6. PROTIP: When saving desktop images (if using PrntScrn), save them in PNG format. Ditto for anything you use Print Screen for.
  7. "Hey, I speak a little French - you're an assbite, pardon my French."
  8. And it just came out of nowhere, like, "LOL **** YOU" from an artist that hasn't really released anything significant in years. Anything to bring down all the "artists" that get worshipped for crappy, similar-sounding music.
  9. I found a story I can only describe as "Joel at 11 being swept up in the commercialization of rap at the turn of 2002, the last years of Cartoon Network and all that being decent, the end of the junk food craze of the 1990s, his varied interests at the time and a whole bunch of [Orion VII kneeler alarm] I can't describe here without necessitating an ISP ban" and read through it again. Apparently, at 11 while writing it: -I was obsessed with putting references to random songs in the story. The first one was "Ghetto Superstar." -I thought using leetspeak (numbers as letters, etc.) was cool. -Rims larger than 17" on most cars was completely reasonable. -No sentence was any longer than fourteen words maximum until a 2007 edit. -I had some damn good spelling at 11. -2003, the year I started typing it, was the last year I listened to Z100 religiously. Now I die a little on the inside when I hear it on the "radio." I made a reference to it... -The only guns I knew about were from Counter-Strike and used in the story. And it was the same 7 weapons every time. I watched that Taxicab Confessions thing on HBO a couple hours ago. Some ****ed up ****.... but wow, I missed a hell of a decade there. Chevy Caprice taxicabs? I knew that show took place in the mid-1990s.
  10. The alphanumeric (letter before number) route designation system makes me feel at home. Last October I accidentally only paid $2.00 on an N4 and the bus operator gave me a transfer anyway... now I ask for a transfer and remember to carry around enough money.
  11. Goddamn laptop mousepads and people who think they are better than a proper mouse, wired or not.
  12. Misa Campo is hot. Very hot. She is the reason why I love mixed girls. When I read that her voice was annoying, I had to hear her for myself.... her voice would make the deaf cry.
  13. I noticed the WD name in the bar there... I've heard different things about different WD drives... and I'm looking into one to back up/keep stuff on because this PC's main HDD is running out of space and the disconnected spare 250 GB? How the hell will I connect that? I'm trying to look for one but I don't want to have one s[Orion VII NG kneeler alarm] out on me.
  14. When I first rode LIB a year ago, I thought the Orion V and the RTS were the same model because I noticed that the operator's side of the windshield were sloped at the same angle, and the Orion V was basically an RTS with a different top.
  15. Thanks for the signs! Sorry to bother you with a request so soon, but what do normal , , and trains show on rollsigns/the LEDs on the R143/160? I'm a lot better with buses...
  16. N25 - Great Neck LIRR Station via New Hyde Pk Rd Also... N43 Freeport LIRR Station Via Uniondale Av Via Main St N4 Jamaica Parsons-Archer Via Merrick Rd Don't be sorry that you denied [drowned out by train passing by]'s requests... For the LIRR routes (25 and 43), the "LIRR Station" segment is centered under the name of the town... and don't worry, my routes are very much real.
