More Random-Ass Observations
First (officially) in a series of things I noticed, but don't have a specific point about. Yet.
Yesterday, on the El, I saw a Garbage Pail Kid sticker stuck to the - what do you call it on the train, bulkhead? Wall? Poisson? Anyway, It was stuck there, in sort of a niche. I thought to myself, first, how long has it been there, since 1990? And no one dealt with it? This this sticker was weathered, but something gets that indistinct weathering on public transportation in about 47 seconds on a train, possibly instantly in the winter or inclement weather (objects have been known to appear weathered and grungy by the suggestion that they might at some point in the future be taken onboard the Western bus). That thought process made me realize that someone could've procured a Garbage Pail Kid sticker recently, which is more bothersome than the idea that someone stuck a sticker to the interior of a train and that had the staying power of, say, 15 years. Because I hated those things when I was in kindergarten, and they haven't left? Or, God forbid, they're coming back? I suppose I could do a little research, but I'd rather not find out. I'd just like to use the Internet for what it was invented for: complaining.

It's entirely possible that there are still GPK cards in my parents house from the time my babysitter hid all mine as a game. I finally found what I thought was the last one at least 5 years later, and then I stopped looking. But I may have stopped looking too soon.
