Rant about Public Transportation
Today I'm going to rant about public transportation, because it sucks and it made me miss class. I hate missing class.
So, I start my walk down to the bus station this morning, which usualy takes me about a half-hour. Part way there I run into a bunch of guys with a wood chipper, cleaning up strom debris. This was all well and good, except they were obscuring the path. So, I walked back around on one of the other paths, but by the time I got to the bus stop, the bus had gone. So I wait for the next one and... it doesn't show up. The one after that shows up, but it's late, and byt the time it gets to the transit center, the bus I transfer to had left. Grrrr. When the next one arrived (it was late of course), my first class was already nearly over, by the time I got to campuse, it was over, and so was half of my second class.
And that was just my morning trip.
The way back, fortunetly, only involved one late bus, which I can deal with. However, there was this big freaking gross dude that sat down next to me at MC, and took way too freaking long to get off. What pissed me off about him was that he kept leaning towards me, so that his leg or his foot were partially in contact with mine, so I kept trying to move away, which didn't work, as he kept getting closer. So I kicked him in the foot a few times, but he didn't seem to get the hint. By the time he got to his stop, he was partially on my seat.
Let me point out that I hate coming into physical contact with people I don't know. I'm not too found of coming into physical contact with people in general, but especialy not with people I don't know. I need my personally space.
Now, all you people on the bus, you see that little line between our seats? That little space that isn't part of either of our chairs? That's no man's land. No part of me, and no part of you, should cross into no man's land, and if you're too freakin big to respect those boundries, then stand the fuck up, because it will probably do you some good.
Plus, it was really hot and crowded on the bus, no air conditioning. Which was kinda gross, because people smell.
On the topic of personal space: I hate it when people try to stand too close to me. I don't care who you are, or what you are, but if you keep trying to get close to me and I keep moving away, or pushing you away, take the fucking hint and keep your distance. It just bugs the hell out of me when people do that.
