- Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
- You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
- Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
- Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If a post is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.

Ditto: I literally take pubic transit to work every single day and every single time I hop off I hop off with these 2 other ladies, and they always pretend to check their bag so that I walk ahead of them and they can see me.
I totally understand why they do that but it still is just dehumanizing to me, specially after literal years of getting off at the same stop.
If it's the same two women every day then you could say hello and introduce yourself?
I think it would be weird to introduce myself to them, here in Canada you do not really talk to other people on the bus except maybe if youre going to another city and have literally nothing else to do
Also, what sort of monster wants to have a conversation with strangers on the morning commute? I'd rather not talk to anyone til at least mid afternoon.
I get where the replier is coming from but 100% where wi live if you chat with strangers on the bus you are being a monster.
