The life of a New Yorker who doesn't know when to quit!

Archive for the ‘ Photo of the Day ’ Category

You know it’s the middle of summer in New York when the temperature and the humidity levels are both over 80.

Its definitely looking like another hot, hazy, and humid summer in NYC:

How do you like THAT forecast? Sizzling!

Okay, okay, that was actually from a gag on the Late Show with David Letterman, but it almost does feel that hot here right now!

“What happened to Seal’s face?” is a good question, and one that Google apparently gets asked a lot:

Ever get stuck waiting for a subway train in New York City when you’re in a hurry and mutter “FML!” under your breath? Then this one’s for you…

Chiara Atik from Guest of a Guest points out that the MTA has its very own FML subway stop at the Union Square station:

FML, on the NYC Subway. I'm still waiting for the WTF subway stop. (Photo credit Julia Kaganskiy.)

I wonder if the MTA plans of changing the order of the lines on that sign in the future or if anyone there even realizes.

Speaking of the future, check out this Subway sign from THE FUTCHA:

In the year 2044...

Ah, the Subway. Only in NEW YORK!

I understand that people love LOST. I really got into the show, even if I have to watch it all over again to really figure it out.

But how much do you have to love LOST to spend the time doing this?

I didn’t get a chance to ask the blond-haired lady driving the Jeep, as she sped away, weaving in an out of cars.

Must have been rushing to re-watch the series from the beginning…

CityCynic.com proudly presents the Strange News Photo of the Day for January 17, 2010:

Today’s Strange News Photo of the Day is of Pres. Obama being pointed at by a woman in the crowd at a campaign stop for MA attorney general Martha Coakley.

WHY SO STRANGE? While the news photo is a unique angle of a politician interacting with the masses at a political event, it strangely raises more questions than it answers. Why is this unidentified lady pointing at the President? She doesn’t seem to be blaming him for anything because she is smiling while pointing, so maybe she’s just giving Obama props? (“You’re the man, Mr. President!”)

Or maybe she’s just not too sharp and this photo captured her realizing, “I know you! You’re that president guy!”

And no, this lady is not comedienne Wanda Sykes, although that would probably answer all of our questions about what’s going on here.

Every so often, CityCynic.com presents the Strange News Photo of the Day. Do you have a strange news photo you’ve come across that is baffling in it’s meaning or just plain strange? Send us a link to the questionable photo in our comments section on any post and we may feature it next!
