listing of grievances:
- Two stupid girls have a hair-tearing fight on the bus
- Liquid and curly fries fly everywhere
- The guy in front of me puts up his arm, so I do too
- The fighting high school girls roll out the door as it stops
- I continue listening to my podcast, because, meh, stupid girls
- People start coughing and opening windows
- PEPPER SPRAY! Hooray!
Interlude
- The guy in front of me has pepper spray in his eye
- I have some on my face
- The fighting girls are long long gone
- We all have to get off the bus
- We are coughing
- We are annoyed
- The 24 bus comes roughly every three years
- Why can’t they fight on a busier route?
Interlude
- My cheek hurts and I want to go home
- I get a cab
- I tell the driver what happened
- He immediately asks “What race were they?”
- I ask him what that has to do with anything
- He tells me he is interested in “Sociology”
- I say anyone who knows a damn thing about sociology knows better than to draw from a single data point
- I tell him that we aren’t going to talk any more
- He tells me he isn’t racist because he campaigned for Obama
Interlude
- I stiff him on the tip and go inside to take a shower
- Stupid girls
- Stupid pepper spray
- Stupid racist cab driver
