What city are you talking about?....it sure isn't this "world class city" of Vancouver

Are you being held captive here? Somebody said you can't move somewhere else?
Don't be such a doofus.

a general attitude of goodwill, and people are picking up on it and reciprocating.
You are the rider I would choose to sit beside.

I take transit every day and these “smiles” are not visible on my trips.

What kind of cheese would you like with your whine?

And where can i get some?

Parallel universe Vancouver?

I like this I'm going to try it and see if things get better for my outlook. I really need a change in outlook have spent far too much time around very negative attitudes and am no doubt projecting one of my own. Me no likey, so me changey, to see happy faces instead of very mad disapproving faces. Thank you for your clearly very wise take on this, have a nice day Sir/Mam ;-)

Same happens to me on transit. Lots of genuinely kind people out there looking out for each other.

"Oh hey man...

You ever...like..

The bus is like a giant metal intestine...

And we're like...

The food being taken to be eaten by other metal worms...

Whoa...

Ok, have a good day...

Thats why I like riding the bus, so many smiling foods in the metal intestine!"
