Bum smell would be less of a problem if so many NYCT custodial weren't lazy half-wit bums themselves and cleaned the cars like they actually cared. You've seen these folks shuffle around with their litter scoops like they inhabit a reality that moves at half the speed of the one others live in?

Well kinda, to be fair though the Triplex's where open gangway between the 3 "car" articulated married sections, so it's not like you were looking down the aisle of a 600 foot, or even half that length of a train.
