If you’re traveling from Brooklyn to Manhattan, you can descend into the depths of a rat-infested tunnel and cram into a tube of strange bodies quietly farting and eating salad. Or, for the same price, you can embark on a ferry where the snack bar offers vodka mules and then feel the breeze on your face on the spacious upper deck. I have no idea why these two things cost the same amount of money.
