Well, That Was the Sign
So this was the Greyhound ad I was complaining about. Too bad nobody could see the irony until a passenger went berserk and started chopping up a fellow rider.
Not a good day for their ad agency.
Which reminds me of last night’s Mad Men episode.

But there is something else I want to talk about here. The opinions of those from other countries. Most importantly the idea that other people on the bus should have “done something”.
I just hate how presumptuous it all is; it comes from a “I would of done something” mentality. Which is quite frankly, bullshit. You don’t know how you are going to act or what you are going to do when you are confronted with a life or death type situation. At that point very few people can reason clearly as your mind goes into a shock response. So unless you have saved someone from a brutal stabbing lately you really need to shut-up.
