Please, please, please…to those riding the number 84 bus to Sackville every day—and any another other bus around the city…when you open a window above you’re head to “cool off,” the only thing you’re accomplishing is that you’re freezing the
‘nads of you’re “minding his own business” neighbour downwind of you. The incoming cold air is not getting to you…it’s blowing in over your head and its getting to ME. C’mon…a little self awareness people! —Shivverin in Me Timbers!

  1. and I’m assuming your ass is glued to that one seat is it?
    well then I suppose you’re shit outta luck.

  2. yes o.p., i have always wondered why people do this stupid thing also. i mean shit, if you wanna be cooler, then move 2 or 3 spaces down from the windows. it isn’t rocket science yet, is it?

  3. pssst, paingirl, get a snuggie.
    it’ll keep you warm without creaming all over your leg…

  4. Perhaps they ran/hurried to catch the bus then when they got on they were over-heated and opened the window to cool down/off? I mean it is still winter there so they’re probably wearing 4+ layers of clothes. Just a guess though…ask them to switch seats next time.

  5. Bear Grylls?
    I’m scared of anyone who can drink his own urine and not throw up.
    kinda of impressed too, but not enough to try it…

  6. My house may as well not have walls it’s so drafty, so I’m immune to this “cold” thing.

  7. Different people have different tolerances to temperature. Maybe this person doesn’t major in physics or common courtesy.

    I’ve always asked (if it’s too hot) in winter and got the O.K. Sometimes I’ve done it because of too much fucking AXE is floating in the Busosphere.

  8. I most always open a window when Im on the bus. Hot, stinky, stale air makes me want to hurl. Just thinking about a stuffy bus makes me want to hurl. But I dont ever take buses, so its not me!

  9. “I most always open a window when Im on the bus. Hot, stinky, stale air makes me want to hurl. Just thinking about a stuffy bus makes me want to hurl. But I dont ever take buses, so its not me!”

    So which is it? Do you take a bus and open the window or you don’t ever take a bus so you never open a window? Jesus.

  10. Bus air, and the stanky bastards on buses is a disgusting combo. If you’re cold, you can: 1) suck it up princess, 2) move so you’re not in the draft, 3) get up and close the offending window.
    I personally like to breathe when on public transit.

  11. It doesn’t help that most bus drivers have their heat turned up to an outrageous amount. They seem to fail to take into consideration that a packed bus = more body heat generated by passengers.
