your story was so funny omg. do you have any more?
- So i lived the town over from my high school, and had to catch the bus like an hour and a half every day to and from
- (a movie. thats a fucking movie, every day, twice a day)
- (I WAS TWELVE)
- (commuter tragedy)
- and because we were all stuck together for so long for like six years, we followed the natural inclination of teenagers to be fucking idiots at every chance
- and we formed this group of bus kids
- forged by ridiculous travel times
- bonded in suffering the ridiculous rule of
- our bus driver.
- our bus driver was an old, old lady called jeannine
- (nickname: the grinch, due to the time we were singing christmas carols and she got annoyed and declared that christmas was canceled.)
- (CANCELED.)
- (we put up a sign written in texta that said ‘NO CHRISTMAS - SIGNED, THE GRINCH’)
- (she did not find it funny)
- jeannine had been driving the bus since time immemorial
- (and may have of, in fact, been one of the Old Ones)
- (never confirmed)
- (but i have my suspicions)
- Jeannie ran a tight ship.
- the tightest ship
- jeannine was the generalissimo of bus drivers
- she played this talkback radio station over the speaker system
- and when we were being too loud or she was jut annoyed with us she would turn it up to deafening levels
- and we would all block our ears, and then having gotten our attention she would turn it down and shout at us
- when we were REALLY TERRIBLE
- (like those two weeks after high school musical premiered and we used to have breaking free singalongs)
- (yeah)
- (I would have turned the radio up on our asses too)
- she would park next to the city graveyard
- (always the graveyard?)
- (i dont know why)
- (mental conditioning?)
- (subliminal messgakng?)
- and walk/hobble
- (she was pretty stooped over)
- (basically she was your standard old crone)
- (potentially witch)
- up and down the aisle tellin us how terrible we were
- so anyway, one year jeannine goes on a two week break for surgery
- (what surgery? We never found out. Various sources claim knee, hip or shoulder replacement)
- (could have been a stay at a lazarus pit)
- (stay woke)
- and we get a replacement driver.
- we called him nickelback because he played a nickelback cd over the speaker,
- on repeat
- every bus trip
- EVERY.
- TRIP.
- how the hell’d we wind up like this?
- so free from the reign of terror that was jeannine, we get a bit wild.
- and by ‘wild’ i mean we:
- talk above speaking level,
- eat our food in the ooen,
- someone busts out a guitar anyway here’s wonderwall
- its one of these days,
- that the Great Apple Fiasco happens.
