world's most amazing/terrifying bus driver right now. she's lamenting the many, many buttons that she doesn't know how to use and keeps reminding us that she has absolutely no idea what she's doing. but she tells good jokes and uses a crusty tree branch to trick traffic lights, so it's a wash.

to the hipster sitting across from me: if i can see your control top, your skirt's too short.

to the 3 girls sitting beside me: it makes me a little--nay, extremely--uneasy that you are hopping off the bus to grab the T to jump some 14 year old girls at oakdale and 3rd because they beat up your cousin and made her head bleed. yikes.

to the old dude sitting behind me: your "humming" sounds like the guttural noise people make when they are dying and it is freaking me the H out. please stop.

this is the worst bus ride ever,
with love,

it's a lot easier to read fellow bus passengers' texts on a blackberry than on an iphone. not that i do either; i'm just sayin'...

so this dude on the bus tonight had a big ass boombox cradled in a baby buggy. every time the bus hit a bump, the cd tray would pop out, he'd push it back in, and some funky beats would play for about 5 seconds whereupon he would give the whole bus a fake apology (because who's actually sorry about playing some funky beats? no one) and then turn it off.

the good times ended, however, when the muni cops came on board and caught the dude without a bus pass. the cop started to cite him, so he simply yelled "back door" and made his escape. good to know that "back door" always works.

you know you're late to work when . . . you don't recognize anyone on the bus.
