Adam Lambert Says He's A Performer, Not A Babysitter
While it lacks the visceral intensity of the San Francisco bus fight video masterpiece, in some ways this audio recording of a nasty argument on the D train is even more enthralling, because it leaves something to the imagination. (We're picturing Edith Bunker vs. Rachel Dratch.) Commuter Joellen Nicholson, who published the video on YouTube, calls it "just another night on the D train comin' home from work. Kudos to the subway Samaritan, who I've named 'Father Subway,' for taking control of the situation."
"Be quiet, I've gotta BABY-sit you!" Nicholson tells us the fight broke out between two women who definitely knew each other, on Wednesday night around 10 p.m., between the Grand Street and Atlantic/Pacific stations. She says one of the women had "a beer belly, as her friend kindly pointed out in the audio. She kinda reminded me a little of Penny Marshall." The other woman "had kind of a manly build, short bi-level hair cut."
According to Nicholson, "There was a little bit of 'smacking' but it didn’t get too far because two men jumped in right away to separate the two ladies... From what I could get out of the conversation one was upset that the other didn’t leave the bar when she said she was going to... I have an old iPhone so couldn’t shoot video. I used the voice memo app on my phone. I started about 5 minutes into the fighting after I realized a) this wasn’t a set up b) it was only getting better AND c) I needed proof to give the moment justice!" And give it justice she did. Who wants to help put together a sock-puppet play to match the audio?

i can just imagine the smell of rotten teeth and stale vomit on the breath of both of these *ahem* ladies. kudos to those brave men who attempted to split them up.
Keep it classy "ladies." I just watched the video of the fight on the bus in SF ... what the french?!
Old iPhones don't shoot video? Aren't old iPhones like, 3 years old?
crikey, that woman sounds like my former landlady
Then your landlady was a junkie. The drawl is always a giveaway; the slapping must have been in slow motion.
oh this is a fucking riot...
They sound like trashy white chicks who are on pills like xanax.
What the hell this is too funny I wish there was video
"I'm not a dyke!" "You SHOULD be!"
ROFL! Thanks for this; now when a fight breaks out on the 7 Train, I know what to do...RECORD IT!
Disappointing. Where's the actual video footage of them fighting?
Disappointing. Where's the actually video of them fighting?
Don't they make no-pest strips for barflies? my BAC went to .08 just listening to them.
Ah, the subway.... reminds me of the time about four years ago when I witnessed an elderly man attack an L train sitting in the station at 8th Avenue.
I kind of like having to rely on my imagination to fill in the gaps...the audio quality is fantastic.
Can someone auto-tune this?
This is funny?
Ugh
For those of us white people who live in the ghetto, that stretch of time between 59th & 125th can be brutal. Every stop north of that adds to the misadventure.
I always seen to get the droning proselytizers in my car between 59 and 125... but that's still better than two ghetto bitches fighting.
I second the Auto-tune request. This is both priceless and depressing at the same time. Mama mia!
Too funny, I wish there was more.
