To the asshole on the #1 last night, everyone on the bus heard you yelling at the bus driver calling him a “fucking asshole” and “fucking idiot”. You claimed you pulled the rope for the next stop, but believe me, I was sitting behind you and you most definitely did not. Stop taking your frustrations out on a bus driver who has probably had to deal with assholes like you all day. To me, and I’m assuming everyone else on the bus, you’re the one that looked like a complete jackass… not the bus driver. Man up and walk the extra two fucking blocks because of your own stupidity. I couldn’t believe how much you mouthed off to the bus driver. I hope your longer walk in the snow/rain made you even more pissed off. —Pissed off transit rider

This is why I try not to get too P.O.d when a driver comes across as “extra-crispy.” Chances are he doesn’t really think I’m a cupid stunt; it’s just that the previous passenger probably was.
The #1 must have had a bad night. I was fortunate enough to sit next to someone who was screaming into their cell phone/bluetooth the whole ride. Tried my damndest to ignore her, read my book, but she was intent on having the whole bus know her business.
Even was insulting the person on the other line for being “blond” then said “haha, sorry to anyone on the bus who is blond”. Looks at me next to her, trying to ignore he, lowers her voice about 2 decibels, and says “ha ha, oops, the girl next to be is blond, snicker, snicker”.
SHUT UP!! She was just such a loudmouth busy body.
Sigh. There, I feel better.
This is why buses need ejection seats.
It’s people like these on busses who are oblivious. It’s like the people who pull the rope/press the button when someone else has already done it. I listen to my ipod when I’m on the bus, yet I always seem to be aware when someone’s pressed the button/pulled the rope — why can’t everyone else? ffs. Some transit riders are IDIOTS.
