Fashion Files from the Evening Commute:
Justin Bieber’s got nothing on this guy, who, incidentally, is probably old enough to to be the Bieb’s dad.
“It only works if the top matches,” noted the fashionista, who takes his style cues from Teen Scene, when an elderly lady commented on the lovely lavender shade of his shoes.
From this SkyTrain platform it looks like spring has sprung, in this man’s wardrobe, at least.

Curse from the Morning Commute:
If you decide to spit while walking in a crowd of people – may a flock of seagulls fly over you while releasing a shower of their shit.

Fashion File from the Morning Commute:
It has been said, that if you love someone, you should let them go, don’t hold them tight – and if they love you, and if you are meant to be together, they will come back.
That goes for the seasons, too.
When you live north of the 49th parallel, wearing shorts and flip-flops at the end of September is the equivalent of smothering someone.
If you don’t want to turn summer away forever, despite the lovely sunshine we are having, put on some pants and shoes.
Really, it’s embarrassing to go on and on about summer, when summer has clearly moved – on.

Report from the Evening Commute:
A discussion about superpowers on the Millenium Line between a young couple turned into a debate about immortality tonight.
“I would rather be rich,” said the girlfriend, emphatically noting that it would be difficult to be left behind by non-immortal loved ones.
“I’d be immortal,” retorted the boyfriend, unequivocally.
“But what about losing someone you loved?” his lady responded with a hint of sadness.
“I would just find someone new to love,” the gentleman commuter declared.
“But you’d still have your memories … Like Wolverine!” the dame protested.
“Ya, I guess …” said the man.

Curse from the Morning Commute:
If you bring your bike on the train at rush hour and park it in front of your seated self and three empty seats, may you get a flat tire of the next rainy day.

Report from the Morning Commute:
If you just can’t get enough of that old train car smell or the back of the bus stench on a hot day – you are in luck.
Translink is rumored to soon be releasing a line of scents for the commuter and the cologne connoisseur, alike.
Featured fragrances are rumored to include, aroma body odeur, eau de farts, and the highly anticipated essence de garlic sausage.

Report from the Morning Commute:
What was once a few small steps for commuters, has lead to one giant leap for Translink.
The BC transportation authority has accepted an RFP from The Man in the Moon contracting firm to fix the up escalator at the Commercial-Broadway SkyTrain station.
The fixture has been out of order since May. When asked via Twitter by a TFTTL reporter why it was taking so long to fix it, a Translink spokesperson noted they were waiting for parts to arrive.
Since the average distance from Earth to the Moon is 384,400 km (238,900 mi), it is expected the escalator will be fixed by Christmas – that is, according to our calculations.

Report from the Evening Commute:
It may only be Thursday, but it’s Friday somewhere for this crocked commuter and his traveling companion who both share a love, in addition to their love of Budweiser.
“I fu*king love digging holes,” said this man’s drinking buddy.
“Yeah,” he agreed, tipping the King of Beers in solidarity.
