CityFail- sheer stupidity

So it seems maybe, that there's been an increase in recent years of people adding stupid pills to their Coco Pops in the morning. Seriously, people do THE stupidest, most ignorant things during peak hour commution (yes, yes, I did just make that word up).

Who knows what made some guy, the size of a baby killer whale, stop in the middle of the station stairs the other day to start texting. Never mind the gazillion people alighting the train trying to make their ways out.

I don't even know if it's a question of brains. Maybe people are really that into themselves that they don't notice they're not made of air! Perhaps he should think about exercising his arse not his fingers, and stay the hell out of peoples' way.

soooooo tired

Completely off the subject of commuting to work, I seem to be perpetually tired these days.
I think it's lack of exercise and sitting on my fat arse in front of a computer all day. Anyways, I thought I'd do a silly drawing about that...



Also thought I'd post my deviantart page so you, someone, anyone, whoever is so kind as to read this, can look at my work, should you feel like it :)

mm that's all!

CityFail - Ashbucket Station

"Good morning CityFail commuters. The train on platform no. 3 is running approximately 14 mins late."

Ah... It's not a good day if I actually arrive to work on time. And CityFail succeeds in never letting me do so! Without any kind of explanation for the delay they deliver a daily service of shoddiness.

Better yet, once the train does arrive, it's every man, dog and horse for themselves! Some old man this morning, made good and proper use of his cane on the back of my boyfriends heels.

Perhaps CityFail should provide a ticket service, first in first served, in order to prevent the daily peak hour carnage. It's a blood bath as people claw, rip and gnash their way into the carriage, vying for any pocket of space to sit or stand, most days not mattering if that pocket is on top of someone else!

As much fun as the struggle is, I can't wait till someone invents a transporter like in Star Trek, and I can get from A to B without the blood, sweat and tears :P

CITYFAIL



So I've decided to take this blog in a different direction (or at least give it some...). Therefore, I'm introducing CityFail! And I'm hoping the play on words, as well as logo, is not lost on any Sydneysiders who may be reading this.

From now on I'll be dedicating this blog to my weekly commute to work. Not just the awesomeness that is Sydney's travel system, but the people on it that also contribute to making each journey such a delight.

So! Let the snarky comments and frustrations fly!! To be continued...
