Well, do that yourself and you'll be able to afford a taxi!

Every day on the M60 asshole tourists and resident cheap *******s alike
clog up the aisles with their goddamned three pieces of luggage each.
This ain't the ****ing Marriot coach!

Given that the M60 was started to provide service to the La Guardia I
don't think you have a valid complaint.

Before the M60 started running about 1990 the only bus service across
the Triboro Bridge between Queens and Manhattan was the rush hour only
M35 which started from 31st Street and Astoria Boulevard drove all over
Wards Island and Randalls Island and then continued on to the corner of
Lexington Avenue and 125th Street.

The only service along Astoria Boulevard was the Q19 which runs hourly
for the most part and actually takes a lunch break from about 11:30 to 1:00.

I don't see how genesis has anything to do with current realities. I
mean, the US was originally founded for white male property-owners
disgruntled with British control of the economy. Fact is, the bus is a
commuter bus that happens to go to the airport -- its very design
suggests this (true airport busses are mostly standing room-only, to
make way for luggage).

Before the M60 started running about 1990 the only bus service across
the Triboro Bridge between Queens and Manhattan was the rush hour only
M35 which started from 31st Street and Astoria Boulevard drove all over
Wards Island and Randalls Island and then continued on to the corner of
Lexington Avenue and 125th Street.


Hmm, I wonder if the M35 still touches down in Queens today....

for the most part and actually takes a lunch break from about 11:30 to 1:00.


Too bad it doesn't stretch into Manhattan -- at least 'til Lexington
Avenue. Doesn't make sense that there is only one bus over the
Triboro, while the Queensboro has got like, what, four or five lines
criss-crossing it every half hour.

Not in New York. NYA passengers sit.

Why are you complaining, unless you actually take that bus. But you
said there are only 2 types of passengers on it: tourists and "resident
cheap *******s". Since you aren't a tourist, that must make you a
"resident cheap *******". But if you are ONLY riding it because you
are a "cheap *******", then you have nothing to complain about.

So either stop being a "cheap *******" or go back to your bicycle.

Well at least this rant of yours wasn't racist trash. So things are
looking up.

LOL!! And where did I say that there are *only* two kinds of
passengers on that bus?

Go back to elementary school, you dumb ****. Took you all this time to
come up with that non sequitur?

Well at least this rant of yours wasn't racist trash. So things are

Aw, shut the **** up you hypocrite. How do you know what's racist or
not, eh?

Thanks for proving once again that my detractors are stupid. Honestly,
I look back on my usenet career, and the one common denominator is
*your* stupidity. Here's to the next ten years!
