Yay! We Won! We Won!
What's schmutz and why is there a "c" in it?
Regardless, consumer transit groups have release the latest results of their regular Subway Schmutz test. And the winner of the dirtiest subway line award?
The E train. Okay, well, that doesn't count. Check out the M, a close second with only 4% of its cars being clean. That's right, 4%. Following the M at a respectable third? The J/Z, at 17%. That's right, my own little JayMizZle is officially the most ghetto line in the city.
Worse than the G? Are you kidding? The G is rated at 49%. Even if you add the J, Z, and M together (and the Z is barely its own train), that's only 38%. If you do the fair thing and average them, it works out to something like 12.667%, and that's just terrible.
The A, C, E? Well, except for the E, they're pretty damn clean, at 53% and 43% respectively. Besides, the J/Z drop 54% in cleanliness this year--54%. Jesus, that's ghetto.
What about the L? Doesn't that go to Bushwick? Well, it might be dirtier when you get off the train, but at 61% clean, at least you won't have a stain on your pants or have developed a staph infection from touching the interior of the car.
I remember two moments of awe that I experienced during my first visit to new york:
1) While circling the city in the plane just after sunrise as we prepared to land: "Wow, it's huge."
2) While waiting for the F train at Houston: "My god, it's so fucking filthy."

I'd like to point out the JMZ all run ALL THE TIME while our little neighbor to the north, the L, hardly ever runs. All those damn dirty hipsters ride OUR train instead to get to their precious 'burg.
