I hate the bus. How the hell is it possible to have a metro city bus system where at 9 in the morning, the bus is scheduled to come every 40 minutes? What kind of a crappy system is that? And I hate having one car. I want my own car. I'm tired of taking the bus in the rain and getting my lunch completely soaked and being all wet and in a bad mood when I get to work. I hate that there are no sidewalks where our house is. We live IN SEATTLE. It's a fairly large metropolitan area. A city, if you will. Yet, there are no sidewalks on our street or any of the cross streets. I have to walk in the grass, which is usually soaked and muddy. I hate it. Where the hell are the sidewalks, Seattle? And while we're at it, where's the light rail? Maybe the reason traffic sucks so bad in this city is because the TRANSIT SYSTEM IS AWFUL. If the bus system sucked any harder, it would be a vacuum cleaner.

If I want to go to my gym on the weekends and take the bus, I have to catch the 302. The 302 comes -- wait for it -- once an hour. Once an hour. I better catch that one bus per hour, because if not, I'm screwed.

I'm having a bad morning.

OLD FORUM: What pisses you off? (I know this is an old topic, but I don't care, it's appropriate today.)
