Tales from the Transit Line

Public Service Announcement from the Morning Commute:

Tired of missing your bus or feeling more like a sardine than a commuter?

You have a chance to vote for better public transit in the BC election today.

The BC New Democrats say they will re-direct millions in carbon tax revenue to increase funding for public transit and improve service as a practical response to climate change.

The choice is yours, but the results for public transit over the last 12 years under the BC Liberals is clear – there are no more buses.

Tales from the Transit Line

Report from the Morning Commute:

The stench of sweat and booze permeating the SkyTrain this morning, is a clear indication that many commuters celebrated St. Patty’s Day yesterday.

As Mr. Angus would say, if he used public transit, “it smells like a god damn brewery in here.”

Gag.

If your girlfriend is supposed to move in with you this weekend, but tells you she’s too tired to start packing tonight and too busy to do it tomorrow – she’s not moving in with you.

Deep Thoughts with Kelle Shaunna

I love it when people yell and swear around the SkyTrain station during the morning commute.

It really makes me feel like I’m alive, you know.

Tales from the Transit Line

Public Service Announcement from the Evening Commute:

If you are an old man who smells like he’s most certainly carrying a large quantity of marijuana and is visibly toting a bag of chips, don’t walk anywhere alone – in the Greater Vancouver Area, especially.

Further to this warning, do not, under any circumstances, also pull a wad of $20 bills out of your wallet – numerous times, as you sit, reeking, on a SkyTrain.

Tales from the Transit Line

Report from the Evening Commute:

Contrary to popular drunk-dialer/texter belief, it’s uncool to be a fool in love with an ex while intoxicated.

“It’s so immature,” said one female commuter about affairs of the alcoholic heart.

“I never think about my ex-boyfriend,” she added, “especially when I’m drunk.”
