Subway Chronicles Pt. 6: “Wiser With Age?”

WRONG!! WRONG!! WRONG!!

That’s what I believed to be true; until this dumb old lady erased said thought.

So I’m at Roosevelt Station (home of plenty craziness) when I stumble upon a massive LOSS. The worlds BIGGEST escalator is out of service! Yarr!

Now I’m forced to mount this motionless metallic mountain VERY early in the A.M. and i truly wasn’t up to the task. In any event, i tough it out as it was the (supposed) fastest route. I then realize that folks (myself included) are taking baby steps going up this thing while the opposite side enjoyed a brisk skip downwards.

Half-way up I come to find out there is an OLD lady, clutching purse and all, taking her sweet friggin’ snailing DOWN the UP side. You don’t go against the grain of a stalled escalator granny! PMO! Now not only am i late, i am the MOST pissed in the world. For the first time i wanted to slap an old lady. Yup, I wanted to take the glove off her hand, get a frim grasp, and then swiftly back-hand her for being a dunce. As i type this i almost regret that i didn’t.

Lesson here folks: don’t walk down the upside. Is that such a difficult concept to grasp? I didn’t think so either, until today.

    I’m the donkey? Me?

    Try this Clev, when you drive home from work today, please speed while breaking one ways street rules. Try that out.

    Is that something “Poor poor Clev” would do?

    I’m not “poor poor,” the lady is. And know I wouldn’t do that, but I’m not old.

    So if you were old….you would?

    Are you saying that you would do what this lady did if you were her age? You would make your travels and that of many others more difficult by being an ass? Would you?

    I agree with A.Musin. No matter how old you are, ALL stupid people should be prescribed daily dosages of bitch-slaps.

    I couldn’t even get past “dumb old lady.” I had to stop and laugh. Hard. However, I was not consuming any fluids and therefore, nothing was sprayed out of my nose.

    LOL.

    She was dumb! I wish she knew I wrote this so she could read(can she read?) it and know how much anger she caused in my life.

    Also, Whit, you should simmer down the chuckle and try reading the rest of the post? Maybe? Good Idea? If you stopped at dumb old lady ur kinda missing the rest…no?

    Also also, (can I do that? Well I did) I don’t believe you Whit. I think u spewed something, you just don’t wanna say. Come on, tell the truth…what did u let go on your sweat-capris?

    I DID finish the rest of the post after I left my comment, assclown!

    Whoa… The hostility… I don’t know what happened. I apologize…

    P.S. There was no spewing of fluid! I was fresh out of Dr. Pepper.
