What they play on the bus


Just listen to this track and imagine riding in a small van, with seating for 20 people, packed with about 35 Ukrainians who haven't discovered deodorant. Everyone is either eating something or drinking beer. The road is full of potholes, so many that the driver swerves into oncoming traffic to avoid them, stopping every 20 minutes to push a babushka out the door.
That was my weekend ride to and from the monastery.

I think this was the inspiration behind snl's digital shorts.

Chicago's bus system is way behind...although, we do have non-deodorant wearers.

...I can imagine you on that bus, and I am laughing at the scenario. :)
