If any of you are currently on my bus, and

talking loudly on your phone, please shut the hell up already. I don't care about you or your plans tonight. And, yeah, that's me, pal. There's a reason why I'm looking at you. Idiot.


That is all. Thank you.

Nicest metro bus I've ever seen.

Oh I don't miss that when I used to take the train.. There was always somebody in the train car having a loud conversation on the inbound train early in the morning. Who on earth do you have to call at 6:15 in the morning and have a loud, casual conversation?! I'm trying to sleep!!

i never understood peoples need to scream into their cells phones.

i seen a guy the other day on one of my random bouts through public transit keep taking his phone off his ear and putting the mic right up to his mouth and yelling into it. conversation lasted about 20 mins like that. one more minute and i would have beat the guy to death with his phone.

London underground, or parts of it overground. I'm just praying for a tunnel to come up and they get cut off.

I raise my glass to Craig and Jay for their hilarious posts!

Now Craig, a public bus? Really? What happened to your private jet?

I'm taking one for the team and going Eco - saving drowning baby polar bears and all. I just need to eliminate a few transit riders in the process.

Get used to it. Good manners and consideration for anyone else is down the toilet at this point in the 21st Century. Unlikely to get better in my lifetime.
