You'll have to forgive Tape for feeling a bit upset with the MBTA. First he notices the above map on an Orange Line car. Then he tries to use mbta.com's trip planner, only to be greeted with an error message that "the system is being updated:"

IT'S 3:00 IN THE FUCKING AFTERNOOON.

Danny, when do you think people want to plan trips on the MBTA? I bet a lot of them want to plan trips on the MBTA shortly before they get out of work at 4:00 or 5:00. ...

Map of the future?

For a moment I thought the map showed the Medford extension of the Green Line.

(In God voice) In a world turned upside down ...

... The state would actually build the Medford extension.

I was on one of those cars recently and was cursing myself for not having a camera to take a picture of the antiquated map. Glad someone else noticed it.

I actually took that picture

I actually took that picture back in April, but was going through my camera's memory card and found old pictures I forgot about.
