Overheard On The Bus
So I’m on the bus yesterday and some guy is yammering really loudly to his friend. Like, so loud that I can hear him despite the fact that I had my iPod turned all the way up in an attempt to drown out the horrible singing of this other women on the bus. So I turn off my iPod to see what is so important that this guy felt the need to proclaim it for all the bus to hear. And you know what he was saying? He was saying, “I can’t believe how inconsiderate people are talking really loudly on their cell phones on the bus! Do they not realize how inconsiderate this is? Do they really think that everyone on the bus wants to hear their conversation? I think we should make it unacceptable to do this in society. We could be prejudiced against this behaviour. Maybe we could give them tickets for talking too loudly on their cell phones.” And he went on like this for like five minutes. Seriously.
*boggle*
Loud voice: “You know what I really hate on the BUS? I really HATE people who have no sense of IRONY! Irony: look it up!”
Maybe he was trying to be ironic and make a point. Maybe he was just an idiot.
