Same.

Took a twenty six hour round trip bus ride to see my son for his birthday six months after moving from Missouri to Michigan. This is two hours before I got back to Michigan on the goddamn Greyhound.

I did 26 hours to Anaheim once on Greyhound.

Never again.

Your eyes are perfect, if contacts are in the cards then go for it.

That's the great thing about hair: it usually grows back as before :v:

My favorite part was the white kid in a Christmas sweater on January 14th rapping about being, and I quote, "molested by witches" in a bus station. Then he got on the bus behind me. He showed me his crystal collection. I have one of those. I didn't bring it on the bus for some reason. Thankfully he kept the ukelele in the case.

"Where are you from, kid?"
"Portland."
Guess where I'm never going?

For me, I always viewed it as a travel option when you have A: not a lot of money, and B: time. So yeah, kinda makes sense. If you're working a standard 9-5 and get one vacation every two years or whatever this dystopian hellscape allots you, can't afford spending three cumulative days of it on travel.

Kinda.

I took the bus from Norfolk to NYC and I loving hated.
However the much shorter San Jose to Santa Cruz greyhound was cheap and short.

Like when I was planning my trip to San Fran for my surgery way back when I briefly considered Amtrak for the novelty factor but ultimately decided to just go virgin since it wasn't much more expensive and my mom was picking up the bill and I didn't want to have to deal with says of travel when I was exhausted and hurting post op.

(Plus having to deal with dilation in a cramped train bathroom? No thankyou.)

(But that doesn't make it so...)

Went to a wedding in Tucson. The groom (one of my best friends from high school) is a competitive weightlifter. The other groomsmen were all weightlifters (except one, who's a former Marine). Everyone at the bachelor party was a weightlifter.

I'm not. I lift, and I'm one of the bigger guys among my group of friends (mostly unassuming biology nerds), so it was an interesting experience to consistently be the smallest dude in the room.

I took a greyhound from Nashville to Knoxville once, it wasn't too horrible but longer trips would kinda suck. My grandma on my dad's side used to always come visit us on the greyhound and we'd go pick her up at the station so I guess I was indoctrinated at a young age

There's also an Everclear song with the lyrics "got all drunk and sloppy on a greyhound bus, we passed out all them losers they were laughing at us"
So I always think of that when people mention it. I think they aren't doing that great and are having to cut back on routes last I heard. So, maybe not as much of an option!

They are also having an issue with working their drivers past exhaustion and falling asleep at the wheel to meet deadlines.

I took a greyhound from Arizona back to Dallas and it was something like 36 hours. My friend and I took turns sleeping on the floor and seat in the back of the bus. I think we were down by the border at one point because border patrol got on and woke my friend (half Chinese half white) and asked if he was American.

Amtrak is the poo poo for medium distance trips. I live in CT and my choices for going down to Washington DC a couple of years ago were flying, which would involve 90 minutes to the airport, however the gently caress long it takes to explain my laptop doesn't have a removable battery and probably subsequently get fisted by a TSA agent, 2 hours on the plane, and a cab ride to the hotel, or $80 for Amtrak that involves walking onto the train, plugging in my laptop, shitposting for 5 hours, and taking a 5 minute subway ride to the hotel. Also, having only previously experienced the NYC subway, the DC Metro is amazing and made me feel like a passenger rather than cargo.
