Tales From the Bus 3

Ah, yes.  The bus.  This writer isn't sure why, but the bus seems to be a breeding ground for BS.  These rolling cages of iniquity are the present place to see it.

Sometimes, the BS happens off the bus.  For example, in this writer's town, people seem to have death wishes, especially in the downtown area.  The bus will just be cruising along and suddenly people will just lunge in front of it.  This writer that sometimes you've got to get across the street, but can you at least wait for the 10-ton death machine to drive past first?

This was especially the case during the whole Pokémon Go craze.  People would be in street looking for Pokémon, completely oblivious to the fact that there was a bus roaring street toward them.  Luckily, nobody was ever hit (to this writer's knowledge).  Still, thing like this have to be stressful for drivers, who risk turning someone into a Ghastly because they just have to have a Pikachu.  And no, passengers DON'T like it we the bus has to suddenly stop because someone jumped out in front of a bus.

Staying off the bus, the bus station is ripe with opportunities for BS to happen.  The bathrooms can be just as disgusting as those in supermarkets (see earlier posts for more on that).  One day, this writer saw a pair of underwear a toilet.  Apparently, somebody had soiled them and tried to flush them down the toilet.  Extreme yuckage!

And finally, that "choose your gender" garbage hit the fan when a male crossdresser decided he "felt like a woman" and walked right into the women's bathroom and exposed himself to those within.  The REAL women ran out of the bathroom and others refused to go in (for obvious reasons).  The crossdresser wouldn't leave the bathroom and had to be escorted out by the cops.

So, there you have it.  BS involving the bus doesn't necessarily always happen on the bus.  Stay tuned for more Tales From the Bus.

Until next time...
