PLD Attraction

Tuesday, April 14th, 2009

This was weird. As soon as this young PLD (the blonde in the middle) walked into the train, she immediately glommed onto the pole like it was magnetized or something. Once again, I’m cursing my phone for not having video here because I’m sure my description won’t do it justice. Needless to say, she stayed there.  You can see the poor people trying to reach over and around her.

Oh yeah, and she’d probably take the slice of pizza you wanted, knowing full well that you wanted that slice. Ass.

All that's missing is the North Face jacket

Starbuck’s Coffee? Check.
Book? Check.
Pole? Check.
Leaning? Check.
Douchebag? You bet.

Oh yeah, this guy probably stood up your sister for the Homecoming dance. Ass.

Giddeeyup PLD!

Tuesday, April 14th, 2009

PoleLeaningDouchebag.com is back with a vengance today after our Easter break. Well, actually a lot of people were off work so the trains were just less crowded. Anywho…

This gem comes to us from our friend M.M., riding the Blue Line. Let’s listen to his tale of woe…

“Got on at Western, before the crush, and firmly affixed herself to the pole. Despite the surging crowd, she stayed on that thing like it was attached with hinges, pivoting around the pole as traffic moved in, only to snap back into place once the tide subsided. Like Old West saloon doors, but made out of douche.” - M.M.

I love it! Thanks, M.M.! Keep ‘em coming people…

Oh yeah, she probably wouldn’t talk to you in high school.

Ring Around the PLD

Someone buy this guy an iron

Someone buy this guy an iron

I don’t even know where to begin with this guy. I’m not sure if the details come through in this photo. Should I start with the crappy Chicago-street-map tie? The iPod earbud just barely dangling from his ear canal? The horrid yellow ring stain around his collar (hence the title of this post)?

Nope, none of that. Instead, I’ll just say that this tool tried his darndest to not have to move off this pole, like it was shoved up is hoo-hah or something.

On a side note, I just want to scrape out my eyeballs every Thursday when the anti-virus scan runs on this computer, rendering it pretty much unusable.  Ok, rant over.

Oh yeah, this guy probably accidentally knocked down your niece at the last BBQ but blamed it on the dog.  Ass.

‘Burb Leather PLD Style

This little gem comes to us from a first-time contributor on the Northwest Metra Line. We’ll call him “D.C.” Let’s hear his tale of woe:

“This guy was staring at that pole ever since he stepped on the train.. he kept inching closer, and then finally went in for  the lean.”

I confirmed this photo with D.C. and he assures me that this guy was in full douche mode becuase the train was actually much more crowded than this photo shows. Excellent field work, D.C.!

Do you think ths PLD is reading a paper? Playing Breakout on his Blackberry? It’s anyone’s guess…. oh, and he probably makes fun of people who are different. Ass.
