The stock market may be down the day after the election, but I have never seen more smiling people on the subway in my life. Usually my morning ride is filled with looks of murderous rage or hostile indifference. Most of the miserables heading to work at 9 am look like they will either snap into a rampage or breakdown crying if they so much as have to move over to share their seat. I’m not even getting any scowls when I hit people with my backpack or spill coffee on them anymore. Weird.
