Overheard on a bus - 05-11-2011.

Bandana'ed fellow named 'Javier' was ranting away on his Bluetooth device to someone about how he has to fight to get his pay for his 40 hours.

I know this useless piece of information because Javier was loud enough so that the whole front half of the bus could hear him whine.

I'm not sure who to feel more sorry for - us, or the motherfucker on the receiving end of that call. It actually might be the latter, as after about 10 minutes, that person evidently had enough, we all heard Javier say, "Oh you have to go now?"

At that moment, I got the distinct impression that many of the people on the bus were either -

  1. Laughing on the inside
  2. Wishing they had a big stick to beat the shit out of Javier
  3. Some combination of 1. and 2.
Seriously - these individuals are fucking self-absorbed. No one seriously wants to hear such morons at 5 PM, stuck in traffic, in the pouring rain. If you want to whine about your problems, be passive-aggressive like the rest of us and complain about it anonymously on a blog.

Otherwise shut the fuck up.
