AB Subway Crush

No, this isn't in reference to what happens to your toes when you're squashed on either side on the F train at 8:30am or 6:30pm.

Subway Crush is a much sunnier, prettier picture of the subway.

Pretty being the operative word.

It's a spin-off website of one of Craigslist's guilty pleasure features, 'Missed Connections.' Though I don't think Craigslist has anything to do with this spin-off.

This is the feature where you hunt and peck for a compliment like a needle in a haystack...hoping the guy that was checking you out in the line at Starbucks would be brave enough (and internet-savvy enough) to ask you for a cup of coffee via the anonymity of the internet when he didn't have the balls to ask you when you were already there...go figure.

Either way..Subway Crush makes it even easier b/c they keep your subway crushes organized by subway line and an 'address book' of your crushes (much like a little black book. except that you don't know these people. and you probably never will)...though I'd be curious to know the success stories of this dating approach.

So, like all good subway crush sites, Subway Crush delivers an organized way to check out people and think your lewd thoughts in real time and do the leg work in digital anonymity.

This marriage of the real world and the internet world...and integrating our insecurities with how we can circumvent them is why the internet is so awesome!
