Why is it black and asian. Why not black and yellow or negro and asian.

Negro means black. You could use African, but that would just be more confusing.

Asian lady asked if she could sit next to the Black lady. Black lady ignored her so when the Asian lady sat down or whatever, Black lady got crazy on Asian lady. Black lady punched Asian lady for saying fuck you or you are stupid too many times. Asian lady went Chinatown on her ass only to be stopped by a younger Asian lady/hippie. Asian lady did manage to get an additional punch&kick? to the Black lady before she stepped out of the bus.

Your comment shows how ignorant and clueless you really are. The muni system is pretty efficient in SF. No reason not to take it and most San Franciscans rely on it to get to their destinations. Yeah, occasionally you'll have incidents like these. How would driving to work be any better than taking public transportation.

Notice how I specifically said buses. Obviously if you live in a city with a good subway/SkyTrain/LRT then it is quicker, easier, etc. But public buses are no different from a car -- you are still stuck with traffic jams, surface weather, etc.

Is that a serious question? Seriously?

Have you ever been to San Francisco? Muni is much more efficient than driving, and parking is horrible and expensive.

Yes I have and that is true. I did not think he was only talking about SF, but I guess I could see that, however there are always certain advantages to driving vs. taking public transport.

I specifically meant SF. But my point was that while incidents might happen on the bus/train, driving to work day after day isn't really safe either. Who's to say that you won't get stuck in traffic for hours. Or perhaps get into an accident. I'm not saying one is better than the other but to say that taking buses is a retarded convention is plain stupid.
 
I"m glad the Chinese lady won. The black lady was probably feeling a little weird being on a bus full of Chinese people..

Driving in SF during the day is stressful. Even if you know some shortcuts here and there it doesn't really help you much. I have tons of friends from SF and even when they got into college I was surprised by the shear number who didn't know how to drive. Never had to. When they showed me around SF, riding Muni was almost as easy as catching the bus in Taiwan (not really), but it was miles better than the East Bay (and you would think poorer neighborhoods have more public transportation but AC Transit can go DIAF), and certainly a whole new world compared to the nearly busless Silicon Valley.

But anyway, this thing spread like wildfire. I got it on the evening it happened from a friend. Within an hour I saw it on a bunch of facebook posts and my friends were commenting left and right. Hahaha. Damn.
 
Women are apparently crazy everywhere. Across the country, here in DC, I was on the metro (subway) about a month ago and some middle-aged white woman dressed in business attire was sitting down in a seat and had her purse next to her, in typical "I own both these seats" fashion. Younger Asian lady stands there, asks if she can sit, and white lady presumably pretends not to hear her. Asian lady picks up the purse, puts it on the floor and sits...

White lady goes nucking futs. No fighting, but she starts screaming up a storm about not touching her stuff, poking the Asian lady in the arm, peeking over her shoulder at her blackberry while she types saying "do you like it when people invade your privacy?!?!" Asian chick puts in earphones to listen to music... white lady pulls them out harassing her with "what are you listening to?" etc. etc. The whole time, Asian chick was totally silent (probably shitting herself at the crazy white devil sitting next to her). Probably 10 minutes go by with white lady flipping out before two seats open up adjacent to where they are and she forces herself up to take those seats, putting her purse down in the open seat, and continuing to threateningly stare at the Asian chick.

So I did what any reasonable person would do. Asked the white lady if I could sit, pushed her purse aside, and made sure I sat as wide as I possibly could. Many lulz.

I'd like to say we fucked like rabbits, but the story gets much more boring from there. She flashed me a glare, knowing that I sat there to spite her (at this point in the ride, there were lots of open seats), but then she quieted down and just sat there silently.

I was actually fairly upset with the Asian chick for not thinking of what I was thinking the whole time the lady was looking over her shoulder at her blackberry. Perfect response would have been to slowly type out an email to someone along the lines of "some crazy fat bitch is practically having a seizure next to me on the metro. I think she's reading this now lol."

Why? they were both out of line, and the only time I saw the Asian woman turn away was to talk shit about the black lady to the other passengers. Both of them need to have their asses kicked for acting like 12 year olds. I would have been glad if somebody had dropped kicked both of them for acting like a couple of stupid Cuntflaps.

I hate those fuckers that sit on the outer seat. If I was that asian chick, I would have called the cops and had that bitch arrested.
