riding the ttc
the subway system in toronto is awesome. it comes within 5 minutes. its not that full, when i’m on it. commute hours are pretty crowded, but thankfully with my flexible (aka slack) schedule, i dont have to feel like a sardine in a can. its open early and late. except not early enough on a sunday, or late enough on a friday/saturday.
my commute is so short i dont have much time to read, but its enough time to think about important things. such as the new fall line up on the global network. ugh. sometimes its just too much when a company takes over an entire cars ad space. i like the variety of ads on the subway. i can get help with credit, rent a car for cheap, upgrade my cell phone to the cute monkey company, or register for the next 10k. all in a few minutes. the latest is the subway ettiquette ads. those crack me up…a picture of a guy with a pig mask next to a pile of newspaper and coffee cups with several people looking disgusted at him for being the little piggy on the ttc. clean up your trash it says. indeed.
the stuff people take on the subway and public transportation is also entertaining. the baby strollers take up way too much space. why did the stroller companies create such monstrosities?! especially for an urban environment? they take up the entire walk way. aren’t kids smaller than adults? why are their strollers so unreasonable bulky?
food. ok, i dont want to smell your mcd’s big mac or chicken nuggets on the subway. eat quite and less stinky food please. and keep your mouth closed!
wow, i must be hungry …
