To every parent who lets their toddler sit on a seat on an over-full bus, that kid can sit on your fucking lap!
To every mother who indulges herself in buying a MASSIVE baby carriage for a TINY baby…
To every mother who brings said behemoth carraige on small-cramped buses…
To every mother who leaves the carriage that is big enough to carry SIX babies instead of one in the middle of the god damn isle so the rest of us people – who aren’t busy over populating the earth – are forced to mosh on the bus so we can get to where we are going standing up, falling over, and stepping on feet – THANK YOU.
Thank you for taking up the same amount of space on the bus as ten people standing. I pay to ride the bus just like you do… but because you have a kid you get to sit, and your huge carriage and screeching baby get tons of room…while the rest of us are left tasting what everyone ate for lunch because we are crammed so close to each other that we are inhaling each others breath.
Birth control exists for a reason.

OMFG! Quit the transit bitches already! You people are a pile of unoriginal shit! And op, you’re also one sick fuck!
While this was basically posted in another bitch already and it may be a little over the top, I think calling someone a sick fuck because they aren’t a fan of baby carriers taking up five spaces on a bus is a little weird.I don’t think they’re sick, just irritable.
OMFG! If I read one more whiney ass bitch from one more whiney ass Gen-X wanker about strollers on the bus, I am going to start squeezing out kids again myself just for the joy of adding to your woe. “Wah! I am inconvenienced by other people every day! Wah! I hate it when other people’s lives intrude on my life! Wah! I wish people who are not like me would just stay out of my way! Wah wah wah!” Shut. The. Fuck. Up.
Amen Miranda!..
let me reverse this….say a gen-xer (born 1961-81) brought his big ass guitar cases and maybe an amplifier on the bus and took up the aisle so people had to stumble and bumble past…would that be as equally acceptable as a doting mom with her megasized hummer stroller? it was mentioned in a previous post but mothers seem to have the opinion that everyone else should tolerate a little hardship on account of them. and why should it be acceptable to intrude on the convienience of others lives. change the situation and see what you say then.
”…the rest of us people – who aren’t busy over populating the earth..” ”…Birth control exists for a reason…”Really, I can see the spittle forming in the corners of your mouth and spraying over your keyboard as you type. Fucking morron. So all of us parents are selfish fuckers for wanting a child? It’s fine if you don’t want kids (or maybe you aren’t capable and that’s why you’re so bitter!) but your lame-ass tv-educated hippy opinions (see above quotes) are so cliche you should be embarassed.
I’ll file this under things that seem to really be such a tragedy in various people’s lives that they feel the need to post many bitches about them, but which never seems to happen to me for some reason. I.E. having my way blocked by giant strollers, being assaulted on a regular basis by the stench of fellow bus travellers, etc. I guess i’m just lucky?But anyway…mostly what I don’t agree with is the idea that a toddler somehow “should” go on its parent’s lap. It’s a person, not a bag, and deserves its own seat, whether it has to pay a fare or not, and whether it’s a BIG person or not. you have to be a pretty selfish person if you’ll begrudge a seat to a goddamn 2-year-old.
People bring guitars on the bus all the time, John. And suitcases. And bags of groceries. I’ve even seen someone get on the bus with an ironing board. And then there are people with walkers, wheelchairs, crutches, and canes. All items that they require to get around, but that are in other people’s way. Much like strollers. Have you seen those gargantuan duffle bags used by military personel? The point is, John, that in the course of going about their business, other people are going to inconvienience you. And they will be inconvenienced in turn by someone else. Adults heave a sigh, square their shoulders, and deal with these inconveniences. Whiney, self absorbed, me-first brats with an inflated sense of entitlement bitch and moan about all these ignorant assholes in their way.
maybe there should be a pettiness barometer here that guages which bitches are fit to post and which are not. but miranda…some days it may be possible that after a series of lifes minor little inconvieniences accumulate and a person gets a little fed up, they decide to post a bitch about moms with giant strollers that pushed him over his level of tolerance that day.i dont disagree with you that the mature adult shrugs it off and moves on with their respective day. but we dont all do exactly as we should all of the time.
honestlyit’s what we are all thinking.
John, you’re right. This forum is for blowing off steam. But it’s also a little window into the mind of a certain demographic. After reading enough of these bitches, and the comments on them, you just know that there are legions of twenty somethings who roll their eyes and clench their sphincters every time they get on a bus and see a stroller. I would be willing to place a small wager, though, that when they get on a bus and have to step around a guitar and amp, they do so without the rancour they direct at moms with strollers.
Not fully comprehending why people want to complicate their own lives so much. Just step around the obstacle, whatever it is.
you’re a dick
Take heed parents w/ kids. In spite of the OP’s apparent “concern” for the planet (re: the “rest of us people – who aren’t busy over populating the earth” comment), the OP is clearly suggesting you get yourselves an SUV and stay the hell out of their oh-so-important way. Sure it’s expensive and not terribly eco-friendly, but it might not be such a bad idea. Especially considering piling your little ones into a gas-guzzler will effectively eliminate your exposure to self worshiping douchebags like the OP.
“Birth control exists for a reason”Unfortunately, no one told the OP’s parents.
