Lamest excuse ever. Perhaps if he had it surgically removed he would no longer have that problem and would not be held back in life by this pesky problem.
@Martiniman: Oh no. You're not one of those pole leaners, are you? If I have to tell one more guy he's not at fucking Chippendale's and to get his big ass off the pole, I'm gonna do a Bernie Goetz.
@BookishLookish: BL, I can deal with the pole leaners. What I can't deal with are the people who won't hold onto anything at all. They just stand there adopting a wide stance (yeah, they're usually men) trying to balance themselves without holding the bar, or leaning on the door, or anything. Naturally, they're the first ones to fall all over the place when the train lurches to a sudden stop, as it does. What the fuck is up with those people??
There's an easy solution to touching the train bars or poles. The minute I arrive at work in the morning, or get home at night, I wash my hands.
@NewsBunny: I wish I could promote this. I've been tempted to do just that after a long, shitty day too, but it was bad enough to ride the subway--packed to the gills with other pissed off people getting off of work or school--wearing a Catholic school girl uniform.
I could make an obvious Flashdance reference, but screw it, I prefer the Zoolander walkoff, where Hansel won by pulling his underwear out of his butt without removing his snakeskin pants.
@NewsBunny: Pfft, more like a small jiggle and varying looks of disgust from the women in the car. Disgraceful behavior, girl. Man up and buy a well-made bra.
@NewsBunny: Oh, this changes everything. WIth tits that majestic, you should be able to swing a job where you only have to hoist them into a bra for four hours at a time. You should be exploiting God's bounty for cash, hon!

I don't have a thing that "pops out" of my pants of its own accord. If I did have a thing that did that I would make sure to tie it down before I left the house each day. However, my underwear has been known to fly off for no apparent reason.
"Kevin Bishop"
I feel the need/urge to share the fact that I am currently watching a tv show in the UK called "The Kevin Bishop Show" whilst reading this post.
According to Gothamist, he's 34 and has 64 prior arrests. Also, the woman police officer who told her to call 311 is now under investigation. She is insisting that she said "911", but if you're STANDING IN A POLICE STATION, why would you need to call 911?
I'm just happy there's been a smidgen of justice this week after all.
But there’s one point that’s being missed. The whole reason this became news was because the woman who complained was told by the NYPD that this wasn’t a big deal and she should call 311.
Then the pictures went viral. Then the guy was caught.
How about the NYPD getting a bit more tech savvy and respecting women a tad more so media circus’ like this can be reigned in?
@SpyMagician: Post reports . . . The cop White spoke to ... admits telling her to call 311, but only by mistake -- she'd really meant 911.
I can't help but be surprised the officer was a woman.
@The Real JR: To paraphrase Wanda Sykes...all that matters is that you stick to your lie! Not explicitly admitting any guilt (not by intent, anyway) is all he's got, even if his only excuse is see-through and stupid.
In...someone's?...defense... (not his) I have walked around an entire day with my fly open (but I'm a girl...less chance of anything simply "falling out" of that area) and my underpants showing, all until I had to edge sideways to get down an aisle and someone was kind enough to calmly point this out to me.
What ABOUT that combo, though--can you go commando, accidentally leave your fly open (it happens, right?) and still not be a creep?
It "popped out" so he put it back in. It popped out again, so he put it back in, again and again. The longer this went on the more determined it was to pop out again. What's the poor man to do?

But that's as far as MY popping goes.
Actually, it's more like bouncing and swaying with the train.
Don't judge me. A long day at work in a bra with the boobs crying for freedom. What would YOU do?

Strangely, it was the US Bishop who was getting flogged.

Fell out of his jeans.
His jeans while seated.
His private parts just tumbled out of his jeans without his full awareness until he happened to check on his shoelace and OOPS! there they were.
His private parts.
His tumbling private parts.
Flipping and flopping like Cirque de Soliel performers.
His private parts.
I'm trying to wrap my brain around... private parts. Officer, they amazingly just fell out of my pants.
I can't believe he thought that was an answer.
Fell.
