Transportation: Today, I was getting ready to perform a speech in anthropology...

Today, I was getting ready to perform a speech in anthropology on the globalization of public transportation and how it brings cultures together. On the bus ride there, the girls behind me were discussing ways to hide their track marks after injecting. FML

Today, while on the bus, I started a conversation with the person next to me. After a little back and forth, she finally said, "Do you think people will stop talking to me if I say I have AIDS?" FML

Today, I was on the bus. I heard a click right before something small hit my cheek. I looked over to see the lady next to me cutting her long, dirty fingernails. The bus was too crowded to move and It was a 20 minute ride to work. FML

Today, while on the bus, I had to stand as all the seats were taken. I was standing behind a group of small girls who were messing around with their bags. As they were swinging them, one hit me square in the nuts with her elbow. The girl said, “Wise up, I hardly touched you.” I missed my stop. FML

Today, I was sitting on the bus when a large woman with what seemed like the flu came to sit beside me. After snorting hideously for five minutes, she picked up her scarf, blew her nose into it, and dropped it. It fell on my lap. When I stood up to leave the bus, there were streaks of snot on my new skirt. FML

Today, as I walked on to the bus, the girl I liked whispered something to her friend. Curious, I asked what was so funny. She said she never realized that when I got on, I shook the bus. FML

Today, I was giving an anti-drugs speech to a group of ninth graders. I got onto the topic of trafficking from problem countries and asked a student to point out Mexico City on a map. He hesitated a few seconds before pointing at Canada. What the hell has the education system come to? FML

Today, I got off a long shift and went to the bus stop. Upon arrival, I saw a girl giving a guy a blowjob. Disgusted, I tried to avoid them and sat on the bench to wait. The girl popped up angrily and looked over at me. "Can't you give us some privacy?!" This is the only bus stop nearby. FML

Today, I was on the bus, heading to work, when the girl beside me started yelling at me, claiming I was staring down her shirt. I did no such thing, but the driver nonetheless stopped the bus and made me get off, all under the withering glares of the other passengers. FML

Today, while taking the bus home, a girl stared at me for a while before asking me if I'd ever heard of makeup. FML

Anthropology is the study of human evolution, biologically and culturally...so this girl wants to give a speech about how buses and such help bring people of all cultures and lifestyles together. On a public bus, on the way to her class, two heroin addicts are discussing hiding their vein scars. Talk about mixing cultures. If you don't get it now, then fyl.

I don't get the fml, it seems like you had a case in point moment where sub-cultures clashed.

Op needs to understand that not all cultural mixing is positive. Hardcore drug user sub-culture is certainly not being one of those.

Yeah, I'm not to sure that someone who is about to give a speech on how this brings cultures together is really gonna feel after hearing the convo. Although it did bring two druggies together- but the majority of non drug users probably don't wanna be around that. So- this peraon kinda got a rebuttal on their speech before even giving it 0.o

You need to read some Randall O'Toole, though his work deal primarily with the United States.

I thought the FML was how the OP was about to present on what they'd considered a topic worthy of serious scholarly study, but really the bus was just full of a bunch of druggies.

Ayame your about me section says that you hate girls showing skin and making ditzy comments to get attention. I'm sorry, isn't that a tad hypocritical?
