When you know you’re passing gas on the train… #realmartachronicles

GTFU AND MOVE!!! Don’t sit there and torture us with the stench of your freakin bowels.

When you have to walk through the train station….. #martachronicles #realmartachronicles

When you have to walk through the train station with your medulla oblongata touching the back of your neck so you can see….then you need to trim your damn bangs. Just sayin….

I Can’t Deal With…..

This woman getting on the train, all loud, talking to everybody trying to make friends….and just being annoying, basically talking to herself

Did I Get On The Crackhead Train or Something? #realmartachronicles

You got one chick looking side to side all shifty eyed like she’s trying to see what she can steal for crack while the old looking dude next to her looks like he robbed Justin Bieber for his outfit. Then you have the old crackhead looking woman with two ghetto playground ponytails in her head that literally rolled onto the train in her hover round with “Jazzy” written on the side and a guy in a security uniform who looks like he’s seriously jonesing then you have the brothers next to me who talk like Damon Wayans in that prison skit, meanwhile ppl look at ME like I’m crazy because I’m wearing bright blue hospital socks LOL….just another day

F*** MARTA #realmartachronicles

Can we go a day without being delayed or stuck on the train? SERIOUSLY. For more that $2 each way, you all can figure out how a train works. I’m just sayin’.

Dammit!! #realmartachronicles

And the same station we were held up at yesterday, we’ve been stuck at for fifteen freakin minutes. Unbelievable.

Drama, Emergency, Lies, Nasty Wet Spots in Seats….It’s Almost Like the Movie ‘Airplane’ #realmartachronicles #martachronicles

Ok so, yesterday I was without my phone and unable to post my MARTA Chronicle for the day. So here it is…

After a day’s work, there are a few things people are just not in the mood for when taking MARTA.

#1. Walking to and through Five Points Station. Um, eelk! Just works a nerve.

#2. When basically scheming and plotting to get on the train ahead if the herd so you can find a seat, you feel bad about going into survival mode when you see the woman in the wheelchair trying to inch her motorized vehicle onto the train. I’m sorry but wheelchair entering in front of you means NO SEAT FOR YOU!

#3. You relent and let her on ahead of you. You get on the train and..no seats. The men pretend to be so into their ipods that they don’t offer a seat, even when the loveable thugs standing next to you with the locs and the tattooed teardrops says, loudly, “If any of these men was REAL men they would let the women on the train have a seat!” That was kinda nice…..but it didn’t work .

#4. You end up standing sandwiched between somebody who’s apparently half crazy and dancing on a packed train and Dr. Funkenstein who is determined to only hold on to the overhead rail.

Then a seat becomes available but unfortunately it was occupied by someone who looks like a cross between the comic book store owner on The Simpsons and the mumbling stapler guy from Office Space…..and when he gets up, there’s a damn wet spot in the seat. No thank you, I’ll just stand.

#5. During a ride a top speed the conductor gets on the intercom and asks if “there’s anyone on the train that can assist in an emergency? If so, please come to the front car.” Ok….what?????

#6. Then the train stops at the next station and we wait for 15-20 minutes and then are told to exit the train and board the next train, approaching on the opposite platform in “1 minute”. 10 minutes later the train arrives. This is after we watched emergency personnel drive by the station twice.

Just another day on MARTA

Teens Gone Wild #realmartachronicles

There is a TEENAGER on the train, on her way to school, with nighttime, stripper length lashes on. That shit is a mess.

Then a CHILD on the other end of the train does not seem to have learned how to quiet her baby when he’s crying for more SODA. Meanwhile she yells at the baby, “Get out my pocket!”  Just sad

And, a cherry on top as only MARTA can do it….train is stopped “momentarily” in the middle of the track. Sigh.

Jesus, take the wheel.

Teen Pregnancy #realmartachronicles

Two very young teen mothers (pregnant) light heartedly comparing notes on how fun it is to be pregnant. Kind of sad.

The Hustle Train #realmartachronicles

Got a crazy mean looking man claiming to be collecting money FOR the homeless, another dude hustling clothes and shoes and a guy selling movies and incense.

The crazy man is arguing with people who aren’t giving money. LOL you can’t intimidate people into believing you! LOL

This is why I despise hearing these words when I get on the train “may I have your attention please”…and it’s always said as a declaration rather than a question.
