C'mon, Metro, really? Ahh, it's why we love you guys. The very real, Ride The D shirts are avaible now from the LA Metro with the announcement that the D line will be finished this year, May 8th.
If you're not getting the joke it's a double entendre. Ride the D is another way of saying Riding D*CK. But, it works fine here too on Riding the new D line.
"Service along the 3.9-mile Section 1 corridor includes three new stations: Wilshire/La Brea and Wilshire/Fairfax — which bookend Los Angeles’ famed Miracle Mile — and Wilshire/La Cienega in Beverly Hills. Each station will have a landscaped plaza at street level, elevators and escalators, wide platforms and are fully ADA accessible. There will be bike parking and easy connections to local bus lines." more info check out The Source, LA Metro's Blog.

Talking about subways, gotta go over the funniest sight of Hebrew we've seen ever, where it might be written in blood. Just released to streaming and on Netflix is South Korea's Ghost Train. An anthology horror movie set around a spooky subway station. Towards the end, we nearly started laughing at the site of Hebrew depicted as demonic or some sort of spooky lettering.
It's sort of a inverse of how we use Asian movies and their written languages, as something foreign to be spooky. Since, we're assuming, Judaism and Hebrew aren't very prevalent there, it might seem like mystical writing.
There's also no context for it being there, like there's not curse relating to Hebrew or the Bible or anyone whose Jewish or was practicing Judaism or really any Western beliefs.
From an attempt with Google Translate it might just be passages just taken from the Bible.
We hope someone on the production staff thought it looked cool. It looks like Hebrew School to us, totally took us out of the already kind of underwhelming horror film. So close to being good, but then you added Hebrew making it better. Hire a real Jewish writer next time, it'll improve your movie. L'Chaim!
Ghost Train is out now.
