Elizabeth Warren gave me a (Dunkin) donut at the picket today so that's my new Most Boston-est moment of all time

I was looking for information on the Rt2 Rotary in Concord MA so I could show a friend. I used to have to drive on it for work and it is wild. Rt2 is a two lane divided (in parts) highway that ostensibly has a 55 mph speed limit, but being one of the major routes into Boston everyone drives 70+ on it. Anyway, I found this.

Note how they're not trying to eliminate the chaos. They know this is impossible. They have the slightly more realistic goal of organizing the chaos.

How will they do this? Maybe by rebuilding the Rotary? Maybe by changing the approaches so you don't go slinging into it at full tilt?

No. With paint.

As if paint will stop a Boston Driver from driving the way they know they have a God Given Right To Drive.

Old friends Séan and Randy meet up at the Dunkin' Donuts outside of Arlington, MA. Séan drives a beat to shit first gen Osyssey filled to the top with paint, dropcloths, ladders and brushes. There are paint stains all over the car and on the back is a Boston Red Sox’s license place surround, Red Sox stickers and a “MY KID WAS FUCKER OF THE MONTH AT CONCORD HIGH” Séan is not a painter by trade.

Randy drives a 1993 Nissan Hardbody pickup with a headache rack and that diamondplate lock box everyone had. The truck cab is full to the smokers windows with empty Dunkin cups, cigarette packets (Parliaments) and the back has an old tire, a waterlogged bag of cat litter and some frayed wire cable. Randy has been out of work for 15 years and nobody knows how he still has money for Dunkin.

“Séan! You old fucker! Howyadoin?” “Fuckin terrible Randy. They’re changin my commute!” He takes a sip of his extra-large coffee "regulah" (coffee with cream and sugar is "regular" around Boston). “Fuckinell. How?” Randy lights a cigarette. “Get this: theyre tryin to make the Rout 2 rotary LESS CHAOTIC” “Wha? Fuck me that’s nuts” “I know right? I need my Dunkin, I need my cigs, and I need to be sliding around that rotary at 70mph.”

Randy nods, takes a drag. He sucks the cigarette down in two puffs and lights another.

Are you okay babe? You’ve hardly touched your “driving home from the north end in the backseat of an Uber staring into the beautiful apartments on Storrow Drive yearning for something beautiful yet unknowable while Heat Wave by Glass Animals plays”

Literally haven’t had a single MBTA trip in the last month that wasn’t a minimum of 15 minutes late, typically more like 30 minutes late.

That’s simply too long for me to stand outside in 20 degree weather like, if it was nice out it would be annoying but I can’t feel my toes??? I thought I was going to die this morning I was so cold. My 30 minute bus trips are taking over an hour and I get to freeze my ass off for the privilege of paying to being late to work AGAIN.

Absolutely garbage handling of the green line shut down in a city full of garbage shut downs.

*And people are wrong about urban myths. Logic and reason say that these are fictional creations, retold again and again by people who are hungry for evidence of weird coincidence, natural justice and so on. They aren’t. They keep on happening all the time, everywhere, as the stories bounce back and forth across the universe ... Urban myths are alive.
