Obvious newsflash: New Yorkers seldom care about those L train signs that tell you when your train is going to come. Why? Because they are sometimes wrong, and when it’s sometimes wrong, it’s always wrong.

How are you New Yorkers enjoying that new automated pay toilet between 23rd and 24th Streets on Madison Avenue? The toilet, made by CEMUSA, has a 90-second automated cleaning process which uses 14 gallons of water after each use. A bit much, I guess, but it’s cool.

Great cloverfield is ruined for me…
