yes to both points. fuck them.

the lyft adds hyping up long-established NYC destinations have been my main source of fury lately, though. you know what's a great way to get to the Cloisters or Rockaway Beach? THE FUCKING PUBLIC TRANSIT NETWORK YOU'RE STANDING IN, LOOKING AT THIS AD. kind of amazing they approve ads that are that nakedly like "fuck the subway." granted, cuomo's MTA is sliding towards disaster but i'm pretty sure a 90-minute cab ride is not going to compete with a $2.75 or less subway fare.

I like the detailed cartoon ads, they work well for avoiding looking at other people

three years pass...

GrubHub is back on the "what up, fellow New Yorkers?" kick, with slogans like "When you're craving cake so badly, you'd crash a Central Park wedding to get it."

Also, I hate how every dumb campaign like this now has twenty variations of the same concept/joke plastered all over the same car. I know that's been a thing since at least the days of creepy Venmo Lucas, but it's just so dispiriting. Today's Zizmors stand no chance.
