STFU OB, jesus christ, nothing better to bitch about? There’s worse things in life.
Beware Tuna Trauma, that life-threatening condition that grows gills in the armpits and gives you a pout like Mr. Limpet.
If that’s the worse thing you’ve encountered on a bus, consider yourself lucky.
haha, tt, “i wish, i was a fish”
Mmmmmm…bus fish.
At least you could open a window. A group of exchange students broke out what had to be pickled herring when I went to the movies last.
Perhaps they were a staff member of that certain aquaculture farm sampling the merchandise?
Was it a feral cat? LOL
Oh dear jesus. I would have chucked…
… promptly inciting at least half the patrons on said bus to also initiate ‘chucking’.
I mean wtf?
I eat fish out of the can all the time but not on the friggin’ bus.
Plus side, it probably smelled better than most days.
Seriously?
A good friend has a very bad allergy to fish that even the smell will cause a bad reaction. It’s time sensitive and that could be bad between stops.
This is like those morons that cover themselves with perfume or cologne 20 minutes before a 4 hour flight.
zZz, it probably smelled better than some of the other riders.
op it’s a bus.
People are allergic to everything, including other human beings in some cases.
Admit it. You only played the allergy card because you’re scornful of someone who would DARE eat out of a can on a bus. You’re not trying to save the world. You’re just trying to create a class caste via metro transit.
Bus fish.
Bus fish is best fish.
I’m curious why the driver didn’t send him off…
The sign clearly shows no food or ghetto blasters on the bus.
Holy Mackerel! Catastrophe! One thing though, was it chunks or flaked? It’s a fairly important distinction.
Was it Star Kiss or Purina?
Reg welcome back. Lots of free time this evening for commenting on LTWWB.
If you take the bus expect to be associated with the mental ill, the drunk the very poor the high the criminal everything you know you should avoid. There are signs that say no food so this person is most likely under the mentally ill category. But I’d take fish eater over a crappy pants or a dumpster stink any day.
you walk to the front of the bus and politely ask the driver to have him ejected. no eating on the bus.
RonnieJS The person was mentally ill because they were eating a can of fish on a metro transit bus? Sounds like the person was very hungry and felt he couldn’t wait to eat,for some reason…Rude yes.Mentally ill,not necessarily.
I’m just gonna put this out there…

still feel like complaining about a little fish?
Lowcoaster: my insulin used to peak during my commute home (unavoidable), so I’d have to snack on the bus. I’ve never once been ejected from the bus because of it. Most drivers don’t care. (though, to be fair, I never ate canned food on the bus, usually just some crackers or a small sandwich).
