Has anyone in New York City encountered "Fast Car Guy" as many times as I have? I see him so often that it sometimes feels like he's personally tracking my routine to make sure he is stationed at my platform when I least want to hear him.

To clarify, "Fast Car Guy" is a subway busker who plays "Fast Car" on loop 90 percent of the time, and sings the most Jesus-y Christian rock the other 10 percent of the time. He is reasonably good looking, he has a calming guitar sound, and he has a nice voice, so there are inevitably spectators nearby who are grooving to his music. But at this point, I have seen this man playing the same song over and over on multiple platforms for literal YEARS and THE SCHTICK IS OLD!!! He has ruined "Fast Car" for me, and severely annoyed me on my commute so many times. Learn another fucking song, man!

It doesn't matter! Now that I've ~set the tone~ for this page, I'm going to complain about cold things, probably my favorite subject to complain about. Ice water. Lately I've been ranting...
