Yesterday I saw an elderly couple standing by the bus stop. His wife is standing with her arms folded. She is frowning. The older man, slightly hunched carrying a bag of groceries, turns to his wife and sighs. "We've been waiting for this bus forever. I'm going to die before it finally shows up."
I don't know if there is a better (worse?) place than a bus stop to make a death joke. But kudos to you, elderly gentleman, for simply not caring.
Oh, Brooklyn.

Hello from the opposite coast!
ReplyDeleteThe crime rates here are such that one could very well die at the bus stop at any moment. So sad that it has come to this.
Hello, from Brooklyn!
ReplyDeleteThis happened in Park Slope. You most likely will not get shot at the bus stop, but there are a couple rapists running around the area. So I guess it's a give and take in terms of "safety/crime" for now.
