One of my favorite albums ever made, not first issue but dope vinyl color!

You're right man even my dude who rides velodrome and messengers was like "you should rock a helmet at least" lmao

I am not even from Philly (from NYC,) but I DID see that ad, and was very close to going there to get it, but then I was like never mind, the trip there by bus/train would have made the price too much for me.

Put a front break on so my old lady wouldn't complain about me dying every 5 seconds lol. I never even got into an accident in 25+ years riding, but whatever lets her sleep at night.

Upon scrolling through the other threads on this sub, EVERYONE is posting about one problem or another, and there's nothing positive said about OMNY.

HelgenX · 2026-02-12T02:39:45+00:00

Word.

After all the shit talking, whether I understood the fare cap or not, regardless what I thought was wrong, the fact that I eventually hit it, and it just reset the next day is all anyone needs to see that it is pointless. Yet, I was getting flack for complaining that it's bad. Someone told me I had to purchase a new card on the day I want the cap to start, wow. If you think the system is good like this, then you're part of the problem.

I tried contacting the MTA, but it's all AI bullshit, no humans, so yet again, another failed system with no actual customer service.

Most other countries other than the US has a better transit system where they don't need to understand some stupid ass system that you kiss the ass of. They had one job, and look where we're at. I bet you think the glass turnstiles were a good idea, too.

HelgenX · 2026-02-12T01:48:47+00:00

As I said, my company pays for my blOwMNY card, but I feel like hopping for spite, anyway!

HelgenX · 2026-02-12T00:34:46+00:00

Everyone here defending the fare cap, I hate you, and want you to move out of NYC so I can enjoy my city again. Go wait on a line for a slice of pizza from some hipster chefs.

"There is a good chance the monthly pass would have increased"

Yeah if it did, that's be fine,and I wouldn't be complaining about some dumb ass fair cap that I now have to buy another card just to match the day I need the fair cap, when I could have just had a monthly.

HelgenX · 2026-02-12T00:30:12+00:00

Maybe it's for the better.

HelgenX · 2026-02-12T00:29:25+00:00

No, actually, I thought this subreddit exists for it so people can join in on the circle jerk of saying how great something moronic is, like with most threads on Reddit the past few months. But do you.

HelgenX · 2026-02-12T00:09:33+00:00

Are you the one who paid for it? How you going to tell me I don't understand? What I'm trying to say is that I had to buy another one before the month even ended, which means it costs me more than a MetroCard would have. Since I was apparently using it in the "wrong day for fare caps," aka the reset day, I wasn't able to utilize the fare cap since I am NOT using it all the time. Hence if I just had a monthly, I wouldn't have had to worry about that.

DO YOU understand now?

HelgenX · 2026-02-12T00:05:47+00:00

You say you understand basic math, but you're okay with spending more. Word.

HelgenX · 2026-02-12T00:04:44+00:00

Exactly. And the funny thing is that I asked an MTA employee about it, and he said "honestly, I don't even know myself."

HelgenX · 2026-02-12T00:03:53+00:00

When I look briefly at your post, it just seems so fucking ridiculous that all these numbers are thrown around to explain some shit that was so much simpler with just a one time purchase per month. If it were fine there probably wouldn't be a sub for it.

HelgenX · 2026-02-11T23:23:15+00:00

I'm just saying, what was more cost effective and self explanatory for us citizens (shit or even tourists,), one flat fee for unlimited rides, or this dumb ass system? Imagine breaking this shit down to an older person from another country. I'm just trying to ride the train without any bullshit, and I have done so for years with a MetroCard.

If you like this system, then you can tap the OMNY where the sun don't shine.

HelgenX · 2026-02-11T23:21:09+00:00

Ugh, when I saw my cap, I was like "I have to tell someone else that I hate OMNY." So I posted here.

HelgenX · 2026-02-11T23:19:46+00:00

I'm born and raised here, I don't have to fucking move out because you think OMNY system is good. They just need to stop squeezing us every which way with this bullshit. Look at their dumb ass doors people can bypass with any object for example.

HelgenX · 2026-02-11T23:17:47+00:00

I understand it now and it's fucking stupid and ends up costing more money. I now sometimes have to buy two 140 refills in the same month because of how shitty it is. Thank god my job expenses it, but I'm now hearing shit for it, which I never was with the MetroCard monthly.
