Square Wheels Posted September 10, 2016 Share #1 Posted September 10, 2016 I hate being such a whiner, but I really don't like people. The two old biddies in front of us won't stop talking. For the first 20 minutes they read the names of the places we were passing. For the last 30 minutes they've been trying to buy something on Amazon and talking about why she can't enter her credit card info. Would it be wrong to push them out the window? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Square Wheels Posted September 10, 2016 Author Share #6 Posted September 10, 2016 If you were on a nice bus, would you be talking loudly like you were at a ball game? They're old, I hope they have nap time soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always enjoyed listening in on other people's conversations on airplanes. It's better than watching the Kardashians. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Square Wheels Posted September 10, 2016 Author Share #17 Posted September 10, 2016 She was holding her amazon prime credit card up for at least 15 minutes,. I was going to post a pic of it so @AirwickWithCheese could order those damn casement windows so we don't have to listen to him blather on about them for the next decade. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Square Wheels Posted September 10, 2016 Author Share #21 Posted September 10, 2016 There are 5 of them talking now. I just jammed my frigging ear plugs in and they are so damn loud I can't concentrate to read. I might have to kill one of them, that should be enough of a warning to the others. This is honestly more rude than I imagined adults could be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Square Wheels Posted September 10, 2016 Author Share #23 Posted September 10, 2016 Now they are ruining the movie for anyone trying to watch. One turned to the other and asked what the movie was about, the other who had already seen it described the ending in detail. I hate people. I will be off this rolling gaggle fest in 10 minutes.

AirwickWithCheese Posted September 10, 2016 Share #24 Posted September 10, 2016 Why did you take the Greyhound anyway? The bus is for the dreggs of society like myself. You are a man of means with your own whistlepigs and such. Really is odd that you took the bus. Please don't start taking @SpeedDemon for granted. You are only a couple of poor decisions away from being my friend Carl. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had in earplugs and was covering my ears too, trying to be all passive aggressive. These weren't city folk, two got off in my town, the other three continued on to new Hampshire. 1 minute ago, Airehead said: Why are you ona bus???????????? I was in NYC for friends anniversary.

Randomguy Posted September 11, 2016 Share #28 Posted September 11, 2016 For those that don't know, there are multiple bus services that run from big city to big city on the east coast. They are typically pretty cheap and just go point to point, and are pretty efficient for the most part. They are also kind of dangerous and vastly undermaintained, too, and occasionally get shut down because of this. That said, are you really gonna drive your car and then have to park in some big city other than yours? Or are you going to rent a car and have to drive to that city and park? Are you going to take an airplane for 18 times the price, or a train for 5 times the price of the bus? Of course not, you are gonna get on that death magnet and take your chances for that $20 round trip, because that is what you do when you live there. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fung_Wah_Bus_Transportation http://gothamist.com/2015/05/11/video_bolt_bus_explodes_on_massachu.php https://consumerist.com/2011/07/22/no-ac-and-windows-shut-during-bolt-bus-hell-trip/ I may have been on that bus, or one just like it, btw. You have to pick your seat carefully to avoid being on the side of the bus that the sun is shining directly on, especially important if the AC isn't working. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Square Wheels Posted September 11, 2016 Author Share #29 Posted September 11, 2016 This was a really nice bus. Very comfy seats with tons of legroom, tons. WiFi. Movies. Bathroom. Coffee / tea / soda / water / juice. Lots of snacks. Left 1/2 mile from my house. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, you COULD beat those bitties with a stick. Just sayin'.... P.S. RG has a really good point. If you're going to a small town like where I live, drive. But SW was going to a place no one in their right mind wants to drive or even just have the responsibility of what the hell do we do with the car?

maddmaxx ★ Posted September 11, 2016 Share #34 Posted September 11, 2016 When the kids fly in from Malaysia they typically take the Chinese bus from NY to the Casino about 20 minutes from my house. The cost, about $20. The departure and pick up points however are parking lots so don't expect lots of services. It's all good though because it's rare for someone to be carrying live chickens. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
