Honestly, the system isn't unsafe or scary at all. It's much cleaner than is typically portrayed in those old pictures and films, graffiti is practically nonexistant, and while there is a faint but persistent aroma of urine throughout most of the system, the fragrance of the rat poison tends to compliment it nicely.


Related to prior conversation:

Last weekend, the missus and I were out at a mall in the 'burbs. There was an entire kiosk selling nothing but novelty spatulas:

Thought of this:

I'm sure Joe bought the Police one.

I thought of Spatula City before I scrolled down to it.


NSFW language but this is very well done and very funny.

Is that the one that goes at an angle? That was weird.

Japan's subway stations weren't bad. I'm not sure why anyone would get lost. The only problem I had was that they have 2 different companies running the lines, so you had to make sure to get the pass that worked for both or know exactly which line you needed.

What better way to say "I love you" than with the gift of a spatula?

That is the greatest thing ever.

Seriously, I'm taken back to the heyday of Atom Films in the late 90s with such instant classics as "Talk to Taka."

The first part of this all-Porsche enduro is interesting, although the driver has a bad line even when he's not running a defensive line. He just has a faster car.

My wedding prequel is on there somewhere.
My favorite Vimeo is the one with the guy with the r/c helicam videoing some...well, I'll find it...hang on.

How long have you been married, Scott? You should know damned well that I had no input into the spatula-purchasing decision.

This figuratively literally makes me LOL:

What does my car have in common with Kellogg's Raisin Bran?

Two scoops!

Joe, you need to make sure you do not enter marriage with that attitude.

If you do, your grilled salmon will forever fall through your grill grate.

This is a fish turner. It is not a spatula. It is awesome.

This is a spatula. Note it is fully covered in silicone so that it is
a) heat resistant to several hundred degrees
b) crevice-free to prevent bacterial growth

Today I just had to.

Last weekend, the missus and I were out at an apt in the city. There was an entire rack of kitchen utensiles that had comprised of novelty spatulas:
