VENTING

[elizabethr]

To the guy on the bus who insisted on talking to me even when I said I didn't want to talk and went on and on about how he didn't want to rape me, even though I was very sexy, because it was MY people who raped and enslaved his people not the other way around

I'm so sorry.

This is why I always wear headphones on the bus. They don't need to be connected to anything, actually.

And any male person who starts in with "Hey, I don't want to rape you" needs to be maced for his own good. Cause, y'know, nobody brought that shit up until you did, buddy.

Also, *hugs* to DenDen.

and this is the part where you go talk to the bus driver.

2 points, a small one and a big one

Hah! It's never assumed I'm racist (that I know of) probably because of my skin color. It's generally assumed that I don't want to talk because I'm a bitch. And occasionally, a dyke.

Um, my larger point, which is why I wouldn't rant on this as a race issue, regards an issue of entitlement assumed by someone who is seriously mentally lacking. Because that MOTHER FUCKER needs to learn when to leave a woman well enough alone, keep his comments to himself and rationalize only to the extent that the object of his putative affection is not feeling social.

GAH. So sorry you had to go through this shit.

At first I was like "Yay an update!" then I was like "Aw man, that SUUUCKS."

Get an iPod. Wear it always on the bus and just look out the window. Sorry you had to deal with the crazy.
