I don't think urinating on people in public transport is a good idea. But otherwise, spot on.
When else are you supposed to urinate on people?
When they ask politely at home, after supper
Asparagus supper
In the privacy of your home? Like a civilized person.
;)
What about furious masturbation? Because that happens whether it's a good idea or not.
City people have fucked priorities. I moved to a large city from a small rural town, and it's nothing but noise 24/7.
People yelling, construction happening, people watching TV with the window open, babies crying, dogs barking, birds calling, cars constantly rumbling by and hitting potholes so loudly it sounds like an explosion, acs running, radio from businesses, crowd noises, hundreds of thousands of little bits of metal and plastic clinging and clanging and pinging and popping, shoes on concrete clicking and clacking, airplanes, conversations going on, gunshots and concerts and car alarms and sirens and parties and car radios all the way up and... Even in the dead of night when it's all died down, there is this constant low hum coming from the city.
But specifically fuck the people who play music on their phone i guess.
I don't know how people even live there. Like do they view a flat, open the window, be greeted by a cacophony of engines and sirens and helicopters and go "OH MY GOD THIS IS AMAZING! SARAH COME OVER HERE AND LISTEN TO THIS! I CAN BARELY HEAR MYSELF THINK! I'LL GIVE YOU TWO THOUSAND POUNDS A MONTH FOR IT!"
I don't know how anyone could live in the countryside, having to own a car and still having no infrastructure near you would be a hard no from me.

What if it's quiet piano music so my infant won't cry? (he is scared of buses)
Put headphones on the infant?

This person should text-to-speech this tweet on public transport
Seems reasonable.
This man is incapable of having a bad take.
More merciful than I would be if I got to pick the punishment.
I loved the film Do The Right Thing as a kid. It was one of my favorite Spike Lee joints.
Radio Raheem was an icon to me. The sound of hip hop in the street. It makes me sad how many people no longer want to interact with others in public.
It's incredibly rare that I've had positive interactions with random people. Sure there's a "thanks" for opening the door or whatever but I wouldn't count that. I mean prolonged engagement though even short conversations can turn on fight or flight. Especially at night, or at a liquor store gas station. "Hey brother..." "Yeah nope"

The typical offender here is the well-to-do Canadian kid blasting gangsta rap in the back of the bus as though he's hard. He also has that early Justin Bieber accent down to a science. Hailing from the Detroit area myself and having spent nearly a decade in this province, I don't think this kid has ever met a gangsta in his life.
It feels like this is getting worse every year. If you're going to do this, at least get a quality boombox with good music like Radio Raheem.
