Background: I commute to and from campus via public transportation. It sucks. There are two routes I can take: the long route which involves a bus and a train, or the shorter route which is one bus that goes through a pretty bad, low-class neighborhood. Usually I take the later for simplicity's sake and, honestly, there aren't really people looking to cause random trouble on a bus at 7am or 4pm on a weekday. Still, riding public transportation through a crummy neighborhood usually comes with the bonus feature of occasional weirdness.
The game: On one particularly odd day last week, I was on my way home when I experienced no less than three odd situations through the course of a single bus ride. I will explain four: three real, one fake. Your job is to decide which scenario is made up, and which ones are real. The answer will be revealed later tonight or early tomorrow, correct guesses win rep!
So, on this particularly odd day last week, did I NOT witness:
1) A high school girl in tears while talking on a cell phone about her brother, who disappeared a week ago after getting into a gang fight and hadn't been seen since.
2) A woman use her large fingernails to pick food out of her boyfriend's teeth, mere moments after they had been aggressively making out.
3) A woman wearing an overly large leather jacket get onto the bus with three children, none of which were wearing coats of their own. It was about 35 degrees on this day.
4) A man get on the bus carrying a roll of tinfoil, who then proceeded to create what can only be described as an origami crack pipe out of said tinfoil.
So, of these four events, which one did I make up? Let the game begin!
