ChapStick theft comes up. One person identifies white privilege on camera while another declares a random TikTok Oscar-worthy. It's frantic, bizarre, and completely unfiltered. This is what happens when you ask New Yorkers for their takes.

What's your take? I think mushrooms should be mandatory. A meme is sex. Uh, I'm taking a ChapStick or two. Petty crime. Petty. Black people know about the white people smile, you know them. I just feel like people shouldn't wear shorts.

I agree 100%. People reading books on the subway need to give it a rest. But think about it—you're there flapping your ass. Is this privilege? Yes, this is White Privilege. Yes. I've seen some TikToks and I'm like, yeah, this deserves an Oscar. Actually, I'm not sure what the hell you're talking about. Ridiculous. Everything is going to be okay, foreign.
