You think she's gonna change her opinion between one thread and the next?

My impression of Carrie's brain: "Didn't I already respond to this thread? I guess not..."

[ash1ee]

maybe she just wanted everyone to know "i have a car" so she responded in 2 different threads.

[ebbomega]

maybe you just want to start an internet pissing match.

I just figured that one would be closed or no one would reply to it

[Carrie]

I enjoy mentioning that I have a car, just as much as you like to mention that you don't and that I should get rid of mine

number one I was sitting on the back of the bus and then when a bunch of ppl got off i proceeded to jump to a more comfy seat so i threw my bag on the seat ahead and jump in and this old lady goes "what are you doing you knew I was walking towards this seat- you stole it!!" and im like I didnt see you SORRY!

number 2 I'm on the bus and there was no one on it so I had my feet dangling off the side, then someone needed to get past so I tucked my feet in( and they were on the seat- i had every intention to dangle them once more but I forgot i guess) anyway I see this man blatantly staring at me and my boots for about a minute so I pretend to ignore him even though hes looking at me like a hawk..finally he goes "excuse me those seats are meant for sitting in not putting your feet on I dont wanna go to the dry cleaners etc" and im like "well that may be true but I don't think its any right of yours to be telling me where I can and can't put my feet but THANKS!

number 3...I know how the new back doors work, u touch the door I do it everyday for the past few weeks...so Im getting off the bus and it will not open i keep trying and ppl are yelling at me to touch it-im touching it..so finally i yell to the bus driver excuse me the door is not working!! and hes like YES IT IS!! and im like NO ITS NOT! and hes like YES IT IS! and i keep trying..and then finally i go to the front "the door is not working for me- THANKS!)

fnk rocks today.

i really thought i was going to come into a thread about how shitty our transit system was and how our government needs to find a better solution then over-taxing and over-charging for shitty service.

but instead i read about someone complaining that they were chastised for putting their boots on the seat.

i just gave up my car. when i start taking transit in my pretty white winter coat, i dont want to get dirty bum because the girl who got off two stops before me thought her reasonably clean boots needed a seat. inconsiderate and more tacky then all three of the things you are complaining about here.

like rhia said - it is like putting your ass where you eat. gross.

[Courtney]

at least I shower, that is more than can be said for many bus goers..I have to put up with stinky ppl,obeice ppl that always seem to chose me as a victim,hearing ppls life stories/phone conversations,hearing ppl blare their techno music at 7 am etc. If people putting their feet on the seats bother you so much you are in for a real treat, let me tell you. If I left a mark on the seat, I would clean it...and like i said i was dangling my feet and just did that for a short minute though I know it was wrong it wasn't my intention to keep them there
ps- white gets dirty under any circumstance

Sorry to break it to you, but I've seen people jerk off, shit, barf and pee on those seats so even if one girl keeps her feet off the seat, you're already sitting on cum, shit, smegma, pubic hair, stomach acid, food, snot and urine.

why be a prick and add to it?

[Carrie]

I actually don't enjoy complaining about my car, people complain way more then me and about much worse things (ie. current thread)

I never forget what is wrong with my car, but none of it affects me driving my car and enjoying having it in my life.

Thats great that you don't have one and don't require one and you save money by not having one around. I could just sell mine but then I would complain about having to bus to Coquitlam and Surrey and having to walk around in the rain all the time.

I don't think I am better then people that don't have cars, I just enjoy having the convienence of it and all you guys seem to do is bash me for mentioning that I have one or it makes my life better then if I didn't have one.

Carrie, if I had money I would have a car unless I lived downtown but regardless i'm jealous of people with cars

I was respoding to the fact that you mentioned that you don't want to "get [your] bum dirty" while riding public transportion. I was pointing to the fact that if you're riding shared accomodation, there's no way to avoid it.

she drives a private vehicle, therefore she travels alone so she doesn't have to deal with people putting their dirty shoes on her seats and all the other crap that goes on in public transit. how is that thinking she's better than those using public transit?

by your logic, thats like saying hey i have a laptop and i can surf FNK anywhere i have wifi. are you going to say that i think i'm cooler than those still using desktops beceause they're stuck by their desk?

[Carrie]

^ exactly my way of thinking.

It doesn't make me better then anyone else. I don't like public transport and don't want to deal with all the problems that people have with using it.

[ppcock]

Now, this is what im doing tomorrow to avoid bussing to my dive shop, my dive shop is on arbutus street and I live in yaletown.

To avoid dealing with YOU (the public) I'm going to walk.

28 minutes with bus.

51 minutes via walking. I usually make it there in 40

Everytime I plan for a dive, I take this route:

I hate public transportation.. SO FUCKING MUCH!

Ok now your just being shallow. But you know what you do have the right to do what you want. In fact if you really wanted to you could make an old lady stand while you sit, budge your way to the front of the line, or stare at someone because they look weird to you. What rules say you cant?

But in our life we are tot manors and common courtesy. If you parents didnt teach you, than your teachers did, or maybe by living in society. This is what makes you likable and respectable. Otherwise dont expect it if you cant give it.

that had nothing to do with what it is i am about to face - it has to do with the fact that you are so intolerant to other people

[ppcock]

I'm sorry to say it.. and really to be brutally honest.

I dont think Courtney is very smrt.
I think she boozes too hard and smokes her brain away, her stories about her friends are retarded stories. Her friends are dumb and to top it all off. she complains about the dumbest shit.

I mean, she could be playing us.. like some Jessica Simpson type shit, but.. honestly, I really dont think she's capable of creating games like that.

I'm just calling it like I see it. If that's not how she meant it, she should think about how she comes across.
