This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Lemmy: Cars are a plague and shouldn't exist, communities need functional public transit
Also Lemmy: Someone used public transit when they could have walked? Pathetic.
Both can be true. I love public transport, but I wouldn't take the bus for 1.5 km. I'd walk or, at most, take my bike.
Yes, also if it's a little rainy outside.
You might take the bus on the many make days a year there's a heat advisory to stay indoors In my state (USA). Plus often when it rains here, it's not a little rainy. It goes from sunny to pouring in 15 minutes, torrential downpour for 20 minutes and right back to sunny. Pretty unpredictable. But mostly I don't think it's nuts to take the bus to class when there's time pressure and then walk home when there's not.
What if you're carrying a heavy backpack and the bus stop is right next to your class?
Don't even bother, gatekeepers gonna gatekeep
What does gatekeeping even mean at this point lmao
How heavy are you talking about? Pretty sure that, here in Denmark at least, there are rules to giving a back-breaking amount of books and homework to carry.
If it's not back-break... walk.
Idk, a laptop, lunch, and 2-3 textbooks?
You're expecting Americans to rawdog their life?
