DO ME A FAVOR AND WAKE ME UP WHEN WE GET TO BEAVERTON, WOULD YOU? I DIDN’T HAVE TIME TO GRAB COFFEE THIS MORNING.

AND WATCH YOUR SHOES, THERE’S A PUDDLE.

COULD BE SNAPPLE OR SOMETHING, BUT LET’S BE HONEST, IT’S PROBABLY PEE.

DON’T MAKE THAT FACE. AT LEAST THEY HAD THE DECENCY TO GO ON THE FLOOR. IF YOU’VE NEVER HAD THE EXPERIENCE OF SITTING IN SOMEONE ELSE’S PEE PUDDLE YOU’RE ACTUALLY A PRIVILEGED MINORITY IN THE WIDE WORLD OF PUBLIC TRANSIT.
