I’m sorry I didn’t crush his creeper foot in the door. You have nothing to apologize for. #cta #chicago #NotThatKindaFootlongSubway

I regret nothing! Go ahead and hide my recent silence, Twitter. That’ll show me what happens when I don’t offend people every single moment of my existence. #CTA #BrownIsntDown #DeboostedButNotForgotten

I ask my riders to give priority seating to anyone having difficulty standing, unless they wanna be on crutches next. #CTA #KathyBatesStyleHobbleYouJerks #Chicago
This is what it looks like to sit in the Priority Seating seat and “not notice” the woman with 2 crutches hobble by. She had to walk 3 seats in before someone got up and a woman yelled “CMON GUYS give her a seat”. @cta @TheBrownLine #Shame #Chicago

Good news: the shame started back in April 2014.
I can’t wait for this account to become a public shaming device for people to openly air their grievances against the CTA and fellow riders

When I said Chicago rush hour was like a giant dumpster fire it wasn’t an elevator pitch, guys. #CTA #CallMeNetflix #StillSearsTower
Uh oh. Big fuel spill on Lower Wacker this morning at the Willis Tower loading dock. Dump truck hit a pole, 80+ gallons spilled. Everyone taking the Wacker/Franklin entrance from EB (Congress) Ida B Wells Dr forced to use Franklin or Upper Wacker instead.

Either @ChiPartyAunt’s fumes are more potent than usual, or Twitter is derailing my legacy by failing me so I can’t fail more of you. But if I’m not tripping balls of sabotage, you left me. Doors open on the indignant right at How Very Dare You! #CTA #CTAFails #INeedValidation

I set myself on fire. I don’t care about the cold. Or time, Canada Goose divas, that angry ghost at Sedgwick...I’ve had this job 111 years-“contracting” never freezes my pension track, Rahm. Don’t forget Snowpocalypse ‘14. Sedgwick Ghost hasn’t. #CTA #PolarVortex2019 #Chicago

Found my spirit animal. What? Spirit animals don’t have to be alive. I’m frozen, dead inside, &smell like the ghost of meat snacks past. Now welcome Steak-umm by sacrificing your single seat during rush hour to him alone. Delays eventually end, but beef stains are forever. #CTA
gather around twitter for a tale, my beeflings. long before any of you were born and I was just a young frozen beef sheet, a darkness was spread across the lands by the wicked savory sorceress of onyx mountain. she was a cut above the rest and controlled the 5 known kingdoms

I never realized how many of you deleted your original tweets over the last few years. I thought we had something special, but you’re as unpredictable and cold as I am. I taught you well. #CTA #Chicago #TheAudacity

I'm already working on the next wave of art & photography ebooks, based on Chicago's Brown Line, Roger Daltrey performing Tommy, a Keith Haring exhibit, and the Chicago Tribune Tower. Details coming soon. I'm hoping to have them all out before Christmas. #ebooks #art #photos

You can always count on spending many a shitty hour with me. Don’t worry about the technical podcast stuff-I’ve been recording you guys for years. #CTA #Chicago #AlmostFamous

Time to go full Kathy Bates in “Misery” mode. It’s better she learn the rules now. #CTA #Chicago #Hobbled
“I’m getting off the train!” -Lady yelling on her phone, sitting in her seat, as we’re not moving between stops @TheBrownLine

Now you know how I feel about humans strapping ice skates to their feet and stepping onto IMMINENT SLIPPERY DEATH RINKS like it’s not insane. #CTA #Chicago #SafetyPatrol
L conductor just told us we have to go “stop and go” around the North Avenue track curve because it’s clearly iced over AND OMG HOW IS THIS SAFE?!?!?! @cta @CTAFails @TheBrownLine

Remember me? No, seriously-who am I? The last thing I remember was running express to an open bar. Now it’s freezing cold and snowing in August?! It’s still August, right? Right? Guys? You there? #Chicago #CTA

Happy #RideTheWindDay! Sure you could para sail or hang glide to celebrate but in reality you will probably just fart on the train. @TheBrownLine
