JPN subway cars too 'thin' for NYC?

"Our growing waist lines are causing all kinds of problems. Did you know that in New York people are too big for the subway cars. The subway cars were made in Japan, where people are much thinner. As a result, they're seating one-third fewer people than they were supposed to."

So I guess we should be making subway trains for them, so they can cram 2x more than their normal capacity. But then again, this would be considered normal on the Keio line, right?
Crowded Subway.

Yeah, those damn fat pig Americans. Arn't they just disgusting? God how I wish everyone in the world could be perfect like "We japanese" I'd give my right arm if I could wake up in the morning and be a "We japanese".... Yeah right. And if you believe that you'll buy this watch.

PS. leathernick that was an outstanding video clip. The gaijin taking the video and laughing as he takes it with the nipponese in line watching him must surly be getting his message across to them (nippon is insane).. Truly priceless.... Thanks.
