I just realized while reading this meme that the last time I was on a bus, I was the one driving it. Which made this even funnier.
Me on bus sober: everything is fine
Me on bus drunk: “Let’s see if this fucker can do a barrel roll!”
Added comedy: I drove a school bus.
I’m the guy who won’t sit down. You see if I sit down, I have to choose between sitting in the aisle seat (and being one of those assholes who blocks off the window seat), or sitting on the window seat - which poses the risk of someone coming and sitting next to me, in which case I might be forced to ask them to stand and let me get out when it’s my stop. And while that might seem like a minor problem to the uninitiated, what if they do this when my stop is next, and then they may wonder why I wordlessly allowed them to sit next to me when I’m about to get up and ask them to move?
It’s easier to just stand.
I dont know if it helps, but I dont think I would be bothered to be asked to stand up for someone to pass:)
I would be kinda bothered to see an empty seat though, cuz someone could be sitting there (even if it isn’t me, it’s still better if the bus has fewer people standing).
(I suppose some people might have their reasons (like medical issues) and might want to seat alone, so I can’t be very bothered about empty seats, as I don’t know for sure their case.)
Also, you can stand up if you are approaching your stop (like maybe when your stop is next), to lower the chances of having them sit down and stand up.
PS. I’m the guy who doesn’t tend to sit down, mainly cuz there aren’t many seats.😆 If it’s packed, I might stand next to the door to step down the bus during each stop to help with the flow of people:)
Riding the bus on vacation: “oh dear, oh dear… Gorgeous!”
Riding the bus at home: “YOU FUCKING DONKEY”
Public transit is what you make of it
A can of aerosol. Could be cleaning, could be disinfecting, could be scent only, could be insecticide.
This brings me the same joy as being sprayed with unwelcome shit at Macy’s.
But this version might have an easy solution that works as a deterrent: don’t be stinky:-).
