It is unfathomable that it even needs to be stated but some people never got the memo, so here goes: bus seats are for sitting. Bus seats are not your personal foot stools so keep your ignorant-ass, salty, mucky, stinking feet off the seats. What were you raised by pigs? Honestly! — Bus Bitch Du Jour

I’ve seen a Crack-head on the Woodside bus carrying a turtle… in mid February.
Can anyone top that?
I was on a bus a couple of weeks ago and the driver actually told a girl to put her feet down, shocked me, first time I saw driver do this.
Three (heavily impaired and very homely) drunks rambling on about jack all
and then one passed out before my eyes… on my way TO work (pre-9am)…
as they were waiting for the liquor store to open for what I can only assume is a 6th wind.
A great day to forget my earbuds…

the seats aint for your damn purses either – prada or nada, get that shit on the floor so my big ass can sit down.
exactly why hog seats when others have to stand. good job the bus driver told her to put the feet down. otherwise pay double for 2 seats.
What’s worse is when people’s arses hang over into the next seat. Fuck! Lose some weight – try walking!
I’ve seen someone stink bad enough to compress the passengers to the rear half. He weighed about 400 pounds and his track pants were split from knee to groin, exposing an acre of unwashed cottage cheese. I pity whoever sat there next.
It is the BUS ….. that ‘splains the behaviour in iteself
Forget about shoes – wear Kevlar. Make the paramedic’s job easier by writing your blood group on your forehead in magic marker.
Also, move your asses to the inside seat when both seats are free. Don’t just sit on the aisle seat thinking you’ve just secured yourself some personal space. You’re an asshole and I will crawl over you making sure I step on all of your toes in the process.
You think you have problems. My heated seat broke, and I’m still waiting for the dealership to call when the part comes in. Fuck sakes, brand new damn car and my ass is cold on these frosty mornings. On the plus side, noone puts their feet on my seats, cept my doggies.
They’re on their way to Wallyworld
Ah, car ownership does have its advantages.
i use my remote start harper, get the beast all toasty warm for me and the doggies before we head out to the frigid trails. so nice to be able to drive comfortably in just my slippers, no gloves or coat or boots until i am ready to get out. and the thermos keeps a perfect cup of coffee hot for when i get back to the car. nice tunes, dogs snoring the second they hit the back seat. blankies piled up. sometimes when we pull into the driveway i just stay in the car, it’s like a little home.
anyhoo, back when i was a transit victim, my peeve was the chanel laden, lv toting, gucci wearing little bitches with blank faces who put their coffee cups on the seat between us as the bus lurched and hitched its way towards bethlehem to be born, oh wait, other poem. same affect.
I’ll take wet salty boots on the seats over gunfire anyday.
Maybe that’s how it started. A simple discussion about common courtesy…
