Straphangers really got the shaft Friday evening!
The MTA in a tweet blamed a “d–k” passenger for service changes on the 1, 2, and 3 lines.
The transit agency tweeted the news as an explanation for why northbound 1 trains are currently running express from Chambers street to 14 Street.
In an accompanying graphic, however, the blame is laid on a “sick” passenger.

“We apologize to the anonymous sick passenger,” she said. “It was just fat fingers. We didn’t mean to be jerks.”
The tweet has now been deleted.
