MetroLit: An Intro

Added on Friday, June 9th, 2006

Here at MetroRiderLA we believe that to truly participate and support a public transit lifestyle we must have a forum for things other than news and events about LACTMA. That’s why we’ve created the MetroLit category. MetroLit is a place to post your personal experiences with metro through more literary means including, but not limited to: short stories, essays, poetry and images. A press release and news conference can only tell so much, but it’s from the rider that we can learn so much more.

MetroLit: Move to the back Mista’ Man

Added on Friday, June 9th, 2006

Please move to the back of the bus sir. Please keep movin’ on back. I don’t care how many, Presidential Fitness Award looking pins you have on your lapel. You’re blocking the aisle and there are a lot of people that need to get on, how many pull ups you can do is of no consequence to us. Plus, it’s not the 60’s anymore and the back of the bus is no longer reserved for blacks. In fact, if Metro buses are anything like my middle school bus, the back is where the party’s at. The back is where all the making out is going on buddy. The back is where you can put your hat on sideways and give ol’ Jenn Gonzales a wet one on the mouth before you get off at your stop. Colonial Dr. and Rt. 111 or Wilshire and Santa Monica, I see no difference because her breasts are still the biggest in the school and you know she’s going to figure that out sooner or later. So why don’t you do yourself a favor, do the rest of your fellow riders a favor, and move on to the back of the bus to get yourself some kisses because I’m tired of trying squeeze by.
