A Nook, Kindle, iPad, iPhone, Galaxy, or real book. They'll read standing up, sitting down, or getting off the train... R.I.F

4. The Make-Up Artist

How can a bag fit so many products? These ladies (and sometimes men) should get an award for being able to do so much on one train ride. Shout out to the ones who clip their nails.

5. The Rocker

6. The Tourist

Return of the Mack, get up! What it is, what it does, what it is, what it isn’t. Looking for a better way to get up out of bed instead of getting on the Internet and checking a new hit. Get up! Fresh out, pimp strut walking, little bit of humble, little bit of cautious

Lucas has dreams. Lucas buys a round. Lucas is staring at you. Lucas wishes you would stop coughing on other people on the train. Lucas wishes you would stop eating on the train. Lucas doesn't always love the people on the train, but it just shows how crazy NYC is.

Lucas uses Venmo.
