But what 'downs' anyways?
Doesn't that name imply there are rolling hills out there in East Boston? I demand a renaming.
Duckling Downs
Get it together, MBTA
I mean, it's one thing if you fail on an hourly basis when it's just commuters and daily nobodies, but you've got suburbanites coming in for a gigantic party this weekend and you'd better be on your best behavior for them so they think everything's fine!
Must be a record for rhyming posts in a span of four days
and it's not even Friday.
The number of rhyming headlines since Monday, by my count:
5 Green Line,
7 Red Line,
1 Blue Line,
2 Commuter Rail
15 instances of T train issues (and I'm sure many more issues that occurred that were not posted).
It's going to be a long summer if this continues.
I love
frowns/Downs.
