Public Transit Stinks

July 10, 2007 @ 09:25

I was listening to the Oakley Show this morning and he was talking about public transit and people's refusal to use it because of body odour.

On hot days they pack people in like sardines and the result isn't very pretty. Some people don't have the best personal hygiene and when they get on a packed bus or subway they start to ferment.

It reminds me of when I was a teenager taking the bus up Birchmount Rd. every morning to Stephen Leacock Collegiate.

Going to school wasn't bad, it was coming home. It was alright if I caught the bus precisely at 3:30, but if I missed that bus and got the next one it meant I would catch the crowd from the Laura Secord plant just below Ellesmere.

The mixture of B.O. and chocolate was unbearable. A lot of them were woman and in the summer they wore dresses that exposed their armpits and they had as much or more hair than most vaginas used to.

Droplets of sweat would hang and drop from their underarms and the only thing that would cut the stench of that was the thick smell of chocolate that also clung to their bodies.

What a wonderful day it was in 1974 when I paid for 25 dollars for a 1965 Dodge Van.

How do you respond to this post? I've thought about it - sweaty, hairy armpits, with the word vagina thrown in there for good measure ... Speaking of which, I can only imagine the personal hygiene with regards to that. I can visualize it all too good. Thanks.

Hey Freddie; What I remember about those bus runs down Birchmount was the ladies were mostly immigrants making dick all for wages but most of them had a smile on their face when they got on the bus.

I couldn't agree with you more.I'm sorry while I agree with all the 'bests', there is a glaring omission of Addison Montgomery on Private Practice.

Excellent! Ahmadinejad did us a big favor! Basically we anxiously delude ourselves into thinking this person (and people who applaud him) are fit to be regarded as good everyday people, he spits in your face to remind us that individuals are (yet again) fooling our-self.

Intense? Lindsay Lohan doesn't know the one half of it. I can recommend for her a company termed Palmer Drug Abuse Program. They will be able to guide her.

The two of them The president and Ahmadinejad are plagued with uppity peasants. Obama having the Tea Party. Ahmadinejad in the Green Revolution this is certainly absurd.

I am certain. It is usually honestly hard to know the difference between the pair of them. Both are Usa haters, hell bent on it’s devastation. Often criticize U . s and Us citizens incessantly. What follows is a hint, The president may be the one at present being successful in wiping out The us.
