The difference between men and women, #3,647,982 November 29, 2007 ~ 3:15 pm
Posted by Julie in : In Da Hood, Rants , trackbackMy plea to people of the male persuasion on public transportation: please do not feel like you have to share your rapping skillz with me while you listen to your iPod. You probably haven’t noticed that I do not feel compelled to share my Freddie Mercury imitations while I listen to my iPod, but you should be suitably grateful. You probably also haven’t noticed that no other woman on public transportation feels like she has to share anything that she’s listening to with the rest of the conveyance. I have no idea why this difference between the sexes has developed, why you males (especially those in their teens and twenties) feel like you have to show off for us, but whether it’s on my way to work in the morning or coming home from a long slog at the office, I think I speak for all women on the MTA when I say “Just keep it to yourself, okay, buddy?”. Thank you.

I try to quell my desire to play air guitar while listening to the Ipod. I will promise, before all of the blogsphere, that should I be on a bus with you, I will quietly listen to my Ipod and just stare at your breasts.
Satisfied?
Ipod rappers are bound to be some quieter than the competing boom box carries of several years ago.
Have to agree that would be annoying though.
Yeah! Word! And if I’m sitting down and you’re hanging on to the pole above whilst standing, ’tis not polite to shove crotch into my face. Thank you, kindly.
I hear ya. Geez. If I can control myself from bopping while on the treadmill, the very least they can do is not wave their arms around like lunatics
Maybe there’s medication those people can take? By force?
