these are pretty funny. i especially like the one about opening the bag of chips. i remember when i first moved to montreal i loved taking the metro and bus everywhere. five years later, it’s a chore.
That was funny!!! He’s a hoot.
Not really all that funny, it just looks like the sort of anti-public service discourse they put in ads and things to get us to buy cars. “WET DOG SMELL” (Jacobs 2004:188). Radical.
If he wants faster buses, tell him to ask the Charest government not to waste its millions forcing expressways on Montreal (oh and spending the equalization money on Tax cuts). But I guess that way he couldn’t brow-beat Quebecers and get cred with his other McGill buddies.
Looks like they were inspired by the countless “best of craigslist” posts on what “nuisance” public transportation users are. Except these are less funny:)
Well _I_ thought they were funny….

NewUrbanShapes: You make some really boneheaded assumptions. I’m early-40s with a 40k$ student loan to a school that isn’t McGill. And it sounds like you looove the bus and Metro, am I right??
