THIS IS MY NEW SHOWER CURTAIN.



NOW I WILL NEVER GET LOST WHEN TAKING THE EL FROM MY BATHROOM.

It is without a doubt the most awesome thing in my bathroom, possibly in my entire apartment.

Shut up, trains are cool.

That is so awesome. I'm kinda jealous.

[brightly-woven.livejournal.com]

You can play Mornington Crescent NAKED and wet.

Wow.

[brightly-woven.livejournal.com]

I was going to write more filk, but after using the word naked, I could then not write a ditty about Sam the Magic Unicorn.

Just...no.

[abby1000.livejournal.com]

Now that is totally cool!

[mtgat]

WANT.

[queenfanfiction.livejournal.com]

WANT MORE.

Dang, Sam, why couldn't you have taken the pic while you were in the shower? ;)

I always thought the Periodic Chart shower curtain was the bestest, but this one may be the bestest one ever! Even though I live No-Where near Chicago. Although, it may be hard to trace a route and take it with you, should you need to.

I think the Periodic Chart curtain is how I acquired this one -- Mum mentioned it, and I said "they make them of the El, too! They're awesome!" and she SEKRITLY had one drop-shipped to me. :D

[teleens-journal.livejournal.com]

I want the periodic table one... But this one is teh cool as well, :).

[kayloulee.livejournal.com]

I really want one of those. Or the London Underground, if they make that. Or perhaps - and most usefully - the Sydney Cityrail (Cityfail) network!

The shower curtain I still I wish I'd bought:

[copperbadge.livejournal.com]

I think the same company makes them!

You should probably also devise a way to take your bathroom with you, Just In Case.

[chronographia.livejournal.com]

Just don't fall in the lake! It's COLD.

"The Zone"

[cleversimon.livejournal.com]

Drunk enough to consider saying something salacious about you and your shower, but not drunk enough to do it without cloaking it in a copout hypothetical scenario. Like this one.

Ahem.

Re: "The Zone"

[copperbadge.livejournal.com]

I'm envisioning something that ends with the phrase "like a train". I believe we have successfully negotiated a virtual innuendo, Simon!

[darthhellokitty.livejournal.com]

Now you need a secret passage to take you directly to the station from your shower.

[copperbadge.livejournal.com]

I wish. It's so stupid to have to go down three flights of stairs to get to street level and then back up three flights of stairs to get to the El.

[lokifan]

I would kil (or maim, anyway) for a Tube shower curtain, so I have a great deal of sympathy for this. :)

(I could make a terribly crude joke here relating to the hole trains-into-tunnes Freudian metaphor, but I shall refrain.)

[lokifan]

the hole trains-into-tunnes Freudian metaphor

AHAHAHA GREATEST FREUDIAN SLIP EVER.

I thought for a second it was the image from the blast door in the Hatch from 'LOST'.

I so would buy that shower curtain.

[elucreh.livejournal.com]

Oooo, do you think they make them for the New York subway?

Having visited a couple of weeks ago and taken four hours to accomplish what should have taken me half an hour, and planning on moving there in about six months, this strikes me as something I should plan on acquiring...

[redstapler.livejournal.com]

Here you go! (http://www.amazon.com/Travel-Destinations-Shower-Curtain-Subway/dp/B000TYBW5E)

A friend of mine has one. :)

[redstapler.livejournal.com]

My roommate recently got the London Underground version. I keep staring at it to see a) how much I remember from the month I lived there, and b) what possibly changed in the seven (oh god) years it's been since.

this is pretty awesome.

[eskanto]

I'd love one for Seattle. I can't even figure that mess out.
I foresee a lot of walking in my future. XD

Geek,,, * snorf *

[surfergirl17.livejournal.com]

Let me go put on my *WOAHISJEALOUS* face.

[immelmanturn.livejournal.com]

If I had one, I'd turn it around backwards, so I could study it while getting soapy.

[copperbadge.livejournal.com]

That's what they recommend! But I don't want to get the curtain itself all soapy. It's too cool!

*pats*

Your train grid looks very similar to Sydney's. (http://www.urbantransport-technology.com/projects/sydney2/images/sydney4.jpg) Sydney has elevated sections, but also underground. For example, Circular Quay is elevated, but the rest of the City Circle is below street level - Wynyard, Town Hall, Museum, St James. Parts of the Bondi line are underground, but others are elevated. Central has above and below-ground platforms. There's a city loop monorail, though, which is above street level, and there is so called 'light rail' which is on a small section of the old tram grid at street level. Shame we don't have a whole tram system still. Was stupid to get rid of them in the first place. Melbourne's trams are brilliant.

[ineptshieldmaid.livejournal.com]

Now the question is: can we get the Cityrail grid in shower-screen format? Of course, I would have to then get a shower which needed a screen, but I WANT ONE.

I have two bathrooms in my apartment. One with an MBTA map shower curtain and one with a DC Metro map shower curtain. They both make me ridiculously happy. The Metro map is starting to look really sad. I'm going to have to replace it soon.

[sunlitshadow.livejournal.com]

*giggle* I'm a DC native, and I sekritly mock the people who are constantly getting lost on the system. I always want to ship them to ride the MTA in NYC... they wouldn't have a prayer!

[lookfar.livejournal.com]

Actually, I've always wanted one of those. For learning the subway system while showering.

Yay!

[jenna-thorn.livejournal.com]

They have the Metro! (http://www.amazon.com/DC-Transit-Map-Shower-Curtain/dp/B002V91T0S/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&s=home-garden&qid=1275052369&sr=1-8) How ridiculous that I am excited about a city I don't live in, but the DC Metro is the only system I can navigate on my own (beadslut held my hand the whole time we were on the El in Chicago) and I'm ridiculously fond of it.

My own city's mass transit system works for a select and limited set of people and leaves the rest of us to go hang.

[thefannishwaldo.livejournal.com]

Yay! The El really is the most awesome thing Chicago ever invented.

Tangentally, the best thing I bought myself when I was in London, oh... 12? 15? years ago? Tube map BOXER SHORTS! I could get to any place in London... provided there was a loo to nip into when I needed to check to see which stop was closest. :p
