There is something disturbing about this, and it’s not just the public nose picking! Some industrious folks appear to have taken the frequently heard New York City Subway admonishment “if you see something, say something” to its 2.0 conclusion. Either that or they are the TMZ of the MTA.

Behold the ‘N Train Gossip‘ a new Twitter feed that rides the N Train and snaps pictures of people doing awkward things and then Twitters them out. Their Twitter bio reads thusly:

Think of it as US Weekly… but every day… and only for the N train… and its not famous people. OK, so maybe its NOT like US Weekly. But you get the point.

Oy. As if riding the subway isn’t enough a pain. Some examples. Also, watch out!

After glancing at a few pics,that is the most boring and pointless twitter feed ever.Must be a real ego trip to post smug arrogant comments about people to the faceless internet rather than to the actual person’s face,ala coward online dot com,sheesh.All this does is make me glad,really glad,I don’t live in NYC.

The N-Train must be wicked boring if *that’s* what people find entertaining enough to not only take a picture, but have a witty quip to boot.
