This is a link post Why I like my car
Like GC, but since I lost both eyes, it is hard to tell.

This is a normal post Yes. Fuck. This.
I used to commute into London until about 2 years ago, and my journey enjoyed a level of luxury that not many people get (namely, a seat). When I moved in with my ladyshape, my commute became a bit of a logistical nightmare (3 changes of train and about 90 minutes door to door) so I learnt to ride a motorbike. Never looked back. Journey takes 30 minutes, costs a fifth of the cost of rail travel and means I can come and go as I please on my own. Still get a seat too.

EDIT: What happened to your eyes?

This is a normal post I used to ride a motorcycle, but after unrelated back surgery I had the fear about going into an emergency room and doctors poking about without the benefit of knowing what was wrong with me ahead of time.
In the states, people keep forcing mass transit where there is simply no population density. They levy a higher tax on gasoline to pay for it. It always comes out 50% higher than originally estimated; the ridership (due to low population density) never meets the projections and when you see the real costs, you could have bought every rider a new car and paid for gas for 10 years for the amount of money spent. Then, because they don't have the riders, they decide to penalize car drivers through wheelage taxes and higher "transit" taxes on gasoline. And the level of crime (at least in my city) is astonishing.

I was joking about the eyes (read: trying to make a joke).

This is a normal post It would make more sense if
they bludgeoned everyone into a jelly-like state. Then, they could all be slopped onto one another.

This is a normal post Yeah, whatever, fuck that.
I'd rather walk or bike or crawl on my bloodied stumps than spend one second in that train.

This is a normal post Now I know why you react so violently to the Pete Townsend stuff I post. He's a competitor in your mind.

This is a normal post This is pretty much like the bus I take from work in a daily basis
If it doesn't just pass by because it's fucking overloaded, I'm generally the last person to get in before the first wave of passengers start to leave, so I generally travel the first 1/3 of my way with my arse pressed against the door.

I change buses along with the second wave, and my other bus gets just as crowded. Fortunately I take it when it's pretty empty so I can sit in my way home
