This Town Makes Me Sick

Again, it happenes. As it is on a weekday, you have to wait for 10 to 15 minutes for a bus in my hometown of Thrikkakara. On Sundays & other holidays, forget it. You may have to wait for anything between 30 to 45 minutes. Then you find a small mini-bus chugs along, taking it's own sweet time about it and you brace yourself to enter it - and you find that the entire population of a neighbourhood is squashed inside that pitifully small bus! That is the same sight that greeted me today afternoon. I waited for 35 minutes only for a bus, the size of a matchbox, filled to the brim with people, like some fucking sardines in a can, bustled on by. I just rolled my eyes in disgust and waited for the next one, which luckily for me was not crowded and passed by in another 5 minutes. What is it with the stupid transport system? It doesn't take a Rocket Scientist to figure out that there are just not enough frigging buses plying along the Pookatupady route. Do you need me to draw you a picture, you fucking assholes? What are you waiting for a bloody invitation?
