Okay, I'm not sure if this should go here, or the off-topic area, but I feel like this is a Sighting. First, the article. Anyway, move as needed.
It basically is a bunch of parents who are mad that they have to take down their strollers to ride the bus. They are also complaining because some bus drivers let them park in the wheelchair area, and some follow the rule and don't allow them to ride if the stroller won't fit under the seat.
Maybe I'm in a bad mood for girl reasons, because literally none of this affects me. I'm not a parent, I don't ride the bus, and I don't use a wheelchair or have anyone close to me who does. Yet I'm super irritated. Because these parents are basically saying that they should be able to take a space reserved for wheelchairs. They are saying that they would rather potentially prevent a handicap person from riding the bus. They are saying that they would rather block the aisle and make the entire bus unsafe.
Sorry parents on this board who use strollers, and are nice, reasonable people. I know you're out there! Yet, when I see a stroller, especially at my work I cringe. I just know that they are going to hog the already small space. I know they're going to run over my toes, or get in my personal space. They get left at the end of aisles, basically abandoned. When I walk on the sidewalk they try to force me off.
Stopping now.
