  1. Yup ,it’s always a “victimless non-crime” and “lifestyle choice”, until you have to actually be in proximity to them.
    But I must contest your intimation that public transit is only for the sober. The suicide rate would skyrocket, were that the case. And the druggies would never be able to case the houses in nice neighborhoods, if they couldn’t hop the #1

  3. You stared at them long enough to notice they were a couple (must have been body language cause I doubt there was a neon sign above their head, flashing “COUPLE”) and, that they were tweaking. I guess they were right, some nosey bitch WAS staring at them. Besides, it’s none of YOUR fucking business what people choose to do while they take the bus!!!!

  6. Was this… ‘what are you lookin at?’ tweaking or ‘I’ll cut your head off and eat your face’ tweaking?

    I tend not to even notice either..
    I usually play hangman or check facebook while on my commute.

  7. You can’t take a stinking Timmies on the bus but you can do drugs? As Danny Glover’s character said in “Silverado” “That ain’t right!”
