The morning commute went something like this, taking a total of 2 minutes:

Anger: Announcement says the 7:25 train is running 20-30 minutes late.  I got 2 separate text messages about late trains, NEITHER about this.
Relief: Oh, here comes the train.
Anxiety: Wait! It's NOT STOPPING!
Confusion: There's a second engine, and a whole second train !?!?  Stuck to the first !?!?
Relief: Oh, THIS one's stopping.

Then we made, not one, but two stops at Yawkey, so that each train could unload passengers.  Never a dull moment.

This from a Unix fortune file circa 1988:

"Living in Boston is great -- you always have a built in excuse for lateness. One has the feeling that if Godot himself walked on stage in the middle of the second act and declared 'Sorry, I came by T', the audience would understand".
