Ah, the Q train
It's like the racial harmony train. It's fifty percent hispanic, fifty percent Chinese, fifty percent black, fifty percent Russian - you get the idea. My prof, who rides it home, told me one night he saw two little old Chinese ladies (or yodas, as Lainey calls them), a hasidic man, and a black man all slumped against each other, sleeping on their way home. If someone told you about this taking place anywhere but the Q train, you would be justified in skeptically ridiculing such a false and tokenish tableau, but on the Q train it actually happens.

That is one full train!
Rumbling peacefully along under the U.N.
It is quite another experience all together when you get drunk, pass out, and wake up on the Q train in Coney Island while the MTA employees sweep up and the bums sleep.
