Video of the Day: NYC Subway Pole Dancing

Posted by Bryan Christian

Here in the Big Apple, they're talking about raising the price of a subway ride again. This will be, roughly, the 900th time this has happened in the last ten years or so -- which wouldn't be a problem if the trains were appreciably faster, cleaner, or had more pole dancing. Hey, MTA: guess which one we'd vote for!

It's been a crazy week here at Scanner, what with our new Holiday Gift Guide and Ike Turner dying. Oh, and we drank too much, and offended people, all while finding the time to make remedial flow charts...

It is so much better if you play "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger" by Daft Punk instead. Gotta time it a little so that you turn the original audio on when the cute blonde is getting tipped.
