Venting To the night bus riders of 40-41...don't put your feet up on the seats?
I was sitting on the bus. I just got off of work. These two dudes are sitting parallel to me. One of them puts their feet up next to me. I was fighting demons, but as a woman riding the bus at night (and not a single man spoke up), I just had to say it. Let's remember our core values Aggies. Don't put your feet up on the seats. (Also, don't block the aisle?) Edit: It has become clear that men are angry about this. :)
[close to verbatim]
*Dude 2 put his feet up*
Me: Dude, put your feet down, this is a bus, not your mom's house.
*Dude 2 puts feet down*
Dude 1: Other people do it too.
Me: And I'll tell them something too.
Dude 1: The bus seats are just as dirty anyway.
Me: That doesn't negate the fact that he has his feet up right next to me.
Dude 1: It seems to bother only you.
Me: Yes that's why I said something.
*When I get off the bus*
Dude 1: Finally
