I've said it here before but my commute is a 4-hour-round-trip daily source of rage-riddled torture. I think it takes a special person to be able to do a commute like this for an extended period of time and NOT wish nuclear warheads came in pocket-size. Sometimes, I look around at all the people who take the train with me, especially the older women. They're the ones who are hunched over, with orthopedic shoes and worn out looks on their faces and I often wonder whether they're stooped because of osteoperosis or if the toll of their travels has finally just sucked their souls right out of their bodies.
Every once in awhile, I see a few people who, bafflingly, seem totally okay with fighting through crowds to catch a seat everyday. They have smiles on their faces, their eyes are twinkling and sometimes they even let people go in front of them.
I can't decide if those kinds of people are just retarded or high.
Either way, without a doubt, I will never EVER be that person.
My sentiments exactly.
I'm the one wishing for mini nuclear warheads. Or a cattle prod.
A few weeks ago, Latchkey Wife sent us all this little video. Well, actually, it's not little, it's about 6 minutes long and it gave me a relatively hysterical but horrifying glimpse into my future.
This is what I'm going to be like in fifty years if I keep commuting into the city. Also, this woman is my fucking HERO.
And she's totally fucking insane.
HOWEVER. A word of warning - while the video itself is totally innocent, the audio is VERY not safe for work. Or if you have children in the room. Or any person who might be offended by a six-minute barrage of curse words coming from the mouth of one very old, very badass lady.
I honestly can't decide if this is disturbing or incredibly funny. But I kind have to give the old lady props for talking smack.
