Rats turn MetroCard machines into hotels; also offer a discreet place to pee

[Messino]

Oh man thats why my new $11.50 MetroCard smelled like crap

 

hah hah very funny but the metrocards are in a seperate container higher up in the machine.

[Grand Concourse]

Whew, good to know. Now, if only they would get rid of the spanish only messages on the cards...

....As the for the people urinating, thats a different story.. Maybe there should be low voltage electrified panels set down so when people piss they get a nice little harmless jolt of electricity. An you cant sue the city for that if your not really being harmed and urinating on their property..

 

I still see people suing the city over that, and it being called a public hazard and *ish. Having said that, I would support that 100%.

The Single Rides aren't but they're still up above the rats B)

When there is garbage, there are rats. The more garbage bags lying around, particularly at the ends of station platforms, it's rats galore. And they'll take over the whole damn station if they have to.

 

This rat epidemic is a serious problem. It's a good thing though that someone (who will remain nameless) is no longer here to go off a tirade about the system's rat problem. Other systems have it too, ours may be worse but it's not like rats are chasing after humans and attacking us. When that happens, call me and I'll get the popcorn for my late night entertainment :cool:

They say for every person living in NYC, there's at least 2-3 rats. Naturally they're gonna get in there

Using the Capital budget, the MTA should use some federal money to buy new MetroCard machines to make it harder for people to piss on them and rats to get in them... stop ordering new cars for a while lol

But the WMATA is the greatest system in the entire world, isn't it???

Nobody thinks this wouldn't happen? Tell you what, get people to stop littering and maybe the rats will go hungry. Every time people throw a snack down there, you're creating an all-you-can-eat-buffet for the buggers.
