Well they are kind of alike ma'am, just think of a taxi driver as a chauffer that expects a tip.

I don't know if he is allowed, it literally looks like her lips are trying to crawl away from him on her face lmao! I just came across some internet report while looking for another pic to use that she is his third cousin, no idea if it's true....

I'm sure it was something less sinister, like she suddenly remembered she left the oven on... last week.

Did you really just try to use money to differentiate? LOL!!!

...and influence peddled to anyone that was willing to pay, at previously unimagined levels. Such a fabulous rags to ritches story.

I don't think it was her face...

I'm totally kidding. Carry on. :)

OMG!!! A 5 year old news story??????????????????? You can't possibly take yourself seriously.

If you bothered to look, you would find many such stories from since the card was introduced. Here's a start, read and learn, from the WSJ to bloggers to video, just a sample from 2010 to 2015:
"These days, swipe failures are a fact of life. The Wall Street Journal tried to teach its readers how to swipe properly in a 2010 article, and a 2011 report from the MTA found that 20 percent of all swipes were misread. Straphangers have simply come to accept a certain number of error messages, and regular commuters pick up on the prickly turnstiles and card readers at their local stations. We adapt because we have to."

" The ubiquitous “please swipe again at this turnstile” message is the stuff of nightmares"

"On the way home, I swiped at the 74th St. station in Jackson Heights — and got that familiar “please swipe again” routine. I dutifully swiped again — and found that my fare had been reduced not by one but by two rides."

"They're on par with calamities like spilling your morning coffee on your new white shirt or getting the dreaded "please swipe again" message at the subway turnstile at the heigh of rush hour. "

Just admit it was a bullshit publicity stunt that no one would have believed anyways. Seriously Hillary rides the subway? It was every bit as dumb as that idiotic episode with George H. W. years ago. It is inconceivable that someone would devote that much effort to defending the lameness.

Nope, it was just a fun blast-from-the-past for her, a trip down memory lane:

Kind of bizarre that the radical right is trying to make such a big deal out of it though. Probably caused a lot less grief for New Yorkers than a motorcade would have.
"MetroCard in hand she swiped, then, in a familiar frustration for New Yorkers, swiped again."

I will give you this, you ARE a great Hillary operative, if you don't get paid to be you should be. I don't understand why the undying blind love but your loyalty should never be questioned.

Yeah, well I'm not sure why a subway ride has you radical righties in a rage, lol.

Sorry, but I'm staying with my original conception of Hillary being an elitist who never rode a subway until yesterday and wouldn't have done it then if so many didn't see her for the out of touch elitist she is.

Of course you are, that's the radical (right or left) thing to do-- ignore all evidence that doesn't fit your desired outcome. Those photos of her riding the NYC subway in 1992 must be fake-- clearly the work of the Illuminati or Reptilians.

No, I base none of that on the subway, I base it on her missing her 2:00 am call and trading influence for cash. I'm not so shallow that stunts/failed stunts influence my vote. I just fond them funny. You seem to be more upset about it than I am, otherwise you would laugh and move on.

I'm in no way in a rage, I was joking about it. Then "Super Leftie" swooped in with his tights and cape to slay the meme dragon. :)

Nope, just correcting your misconception that having problems swiping a Metrocard is somehow a rare happening. It's not, even for daily riders.

Just 50k until I pass entertainer, should be around a week if things go good :)

Yeah, I was looking at that last night, the million was okay, but I was happier the day i passed him :)

I just want to be next to my buddy John again ;)

I knew it was a question of time, from about your second week. I was just worried you'd pass me before I could do it :)

Doubt I will ever pass you, just glad to be where I am at all. Got some new people really climbing fast. It takes a lot of time to keep enough comments going to earn fast points, hard to get work done when I can just click over to imgflip whenever I want. Good thing I don't really have a boss lmao!

I've slowed down a lot, time has been at a premium, and with the new job I don't have the ability to do other stuff, nor do I want to.

Plus it's finally getting nice out, today was fun for my little guy, we walked down and saw the neighbors baby sheep. Then ran into a mud covered snapping turtle that was very grumpy from his long nap lol. Even got to pet a giant black snake that was very lazy since it had obviously just woken up also. Sharing stuff like that with the lil guy always comes first :)

Sounds like a great day!!! I miss the woods. I would love to have brought my daughter up in the house I had in Virginia, surrounded by woods.

Yeah I grew up in a big city and never thought I'd learn to like it here. Now I avoid town and truly appreciate how much nicer it is living here, especially with kids.

I used to love going to my grandmother's house so I could go play in the woods. Give me a little creek, unlimited sticks and bark and I will build a fort for little green army men that will knock your socks off!

Awesome :) kids miss out on a lot that they don't even know about nowadays
