SUBWAY DOUCHERY : Hitler is a jerk!
This is a vintage subway poster from Tokyo based on Charlie Chaplin’s film The Great Dictator that, “bitterly satirized Hitler and Nazism.”
But I’m sure most of you haven’t seen that movie so let’s just take the picture at face value… IT’S HITLER DOING THE HORSE STANCE SIT! WHAT AN ASSHOLE! Not that we needed another reason to think he was a jerk. BUT here he is doing a classic Subway Douchery move in an old time movie replica poster!
Here’s some terrible jokes about it:
- I asked him to make room but he said, “Mein Kampftorble!”
- “Heading to ze Upper East Side. Hope zere are nein Jews!”
- Chicken or the egg? Charlie Chaplin’s Hitler Mustache or Hitler’s Hitler Mustache?
- They used Stalin for the “Stand clear of the closing doors!” poster.
- Say what you will…. but he knew how to effectively use eye liner!

I always really liked this one. And a girl I was in love with once really liked it too. Happy Post Valentine’s Day! Welcome to the Winter of Your Collective Discontent!
SUBWAY DOUCHERY : The Hipster Infiltrator
When you were whispering to a friend about how much you ACTUALLY paid for your ironic thrift store shirt ($62?!?!?) ….. he was there… Riding to Williamsburg, when you made up a band name to impress your friends about an obscure side project of that of the guy from Neutral Milk Hotel … he heard your lies… On the train to work, when you tried to teach yourself how to roll your own cigarettes because it’s “cheaper” but you and everyone else knows you’re full of shit… he saw it all….
Meet The Hipster Infiltrator… he’s been accepted as one of your own by crude disguise of a knit beard. REALLY! The beard has become so common place in the community that you couldn’t tell facial hair from GRANDMA’S YARN!!! He even threw in a Kurt Vonnegut novel and a Brooklyn Museum tote bag for good measure.. DIABOLICAL GENIUS!!! So next time you’re on the train and switch from that Black Keys song you SAY you like, to that Shakira song you ACTUALLY like.. he might be watching!
*** An apathetic whatever I guess THANKS! to Panastyle for this picture. The guy might not be doing anything Douchey but I couldn’t NOT post it! Keep on Douchin’ ***
SUBWAY DOUCHERY : Pajamas Make The Man Sad
This is the moment caught on film… the pinnacle of success for someone that dresses up as a superhero for tourists in Time Square. But my Inborn Irish Whimsy (which is a “fun” way of describing Depression) sees a much more melancholy tale. Because once the pictures are taken and the smiles fade, he’s still on a subway dressed up like Spiderman. A suit that I can assure you is not warm enough for the winter and certainly too hot for the summer. I can only imagine the smells that emanate from that webbed garb…
He climbs the stairs to those bustling city streets dressed as a fictional character. He gets looks of recognition, disgust, or fear from Eastern European tourists that aren’t 100% whether or not Spiderman exists. But it’s not Halloween and he has to carry a reality inducing knapsack for his keys, wallet, perhaps a bottle of water, and half a sandwich packed from home. Posing for pictures doesn’t pay what it used to and just buying a slice of pizza could break the bank. Have you ever seen a one trick pony in the field so happy and free….
