Pink Line PLD WIN!!!

Sunday, March 29th, 2009

We’ve got a report of humanity creeping back out of the primordial ooze! This update comes to us from Maria. Let’s hear her tale of victory!

“Hi - I’m happy to share a small victory against a wannabe PLD on the Pink Line this morning. The wannabe came on to the train carrying a filled bankers box. Of course he set the box down (understandable - it looked heavy), however his selected placement of the box - in the center of the “foyer” area by the door - left much to be desired. Anyways. As soon as he put the box down, I knew what would happen next, so I quickly shot my hand out to the nearest pole. He leaned back on my hand then promptly leaned right back up. And then - gently - grabbed the pole himself, in a manner that would make his momma proud. I think I heard birds chirping off in the distance.

This is not a hopeless situation people! We CAN make a difference in the lives of potential PLDs everywhere!”

FANTASTIC! I hope someday this website will by unnecessary. (of course, I do own this domain for the next two years so you can see that confidence is pretty low ^_^)

Double PLD Via NYC

Sunday, March 29th, 2009
What is that? A suede trenchcoat? 

Suede trenchoat? You’re not so tough.

 

sweet man bag, duder!

sweet man bag, duder!

Gotta say, this either warms my heart or justifies my fears that humanity is crumbling all over the world. These two PLDs were sent to us from our new friend “C.L.” in NYC. She caught both of these in the same car. Let’s hear her tragic tale, shall we?

“Hi there - love your site.  Used to live in Chicago many years ago but now live in NYC.  Anyway, here are a couple of pics I took last night, about 10 pm, on the 1 train going downtown from the Upper West Side.  Two PLDs in the same car.  Enjoy!”

That’s right, I left the site compliments in there to massage my own ego. What of it? Anyways. Thanks a ton C.L.! From the looks of the PLD in the trenchcoat, I’d say she probably got Citizen Kane from Netflix about 3 months ago but hasn’t watched. However, won’t return it because she thinks she SHOULD watch it… in reality, she just wants to watch “Dude, Where’s My Car.”  And the other guy? Classic front-side pole lean, rocking the man bag… I’d say he’s probably thinking about how many homeless people he’d need to stack in order to make a nightstand for that book he’s reading.

Thanks again, C.L.! Get ready for a bunch of snow in NYC. We just got about 2-3 inches here in Chicago. Enjoy and, for everyone else out there, keep those photos coming in from where ever you are!

Just a jag-off

Just a jag-off

Witness the reaching citizen having to get around this greasy asswipe. Humanity inches ever closer to total douche-dom.

And he will pop a child’s balloon if you give him a chance.

I Always Feel Like Sombody’s PLD

Sorry for the lack of updates folks. Someone broke into my car this weekend. The only thing they stole was my iPod adapter. Kids.  I would say that I feel violated in some way but, far too often, I feel that way when some jag-off prevents someone from using the pole on the train.

Luckily, I’m not alone as this latest find comes to us, once again, from our friend _jake. Let’s hear what he has to say, shall we?

“This chode was on the Green Line for just two stops, but blocked at least four other people from holding on. Watching me take his pic was no clue to him. Say cheese, PLD!”

Thanks, _jake!  I hope this guy gets one popcorn shell stuck in his teeth for each person were unable to use the pole because of this douchebag.
