Transit Strikes are More Useless Than Decaffeinated Coffee or Anal Fissures.

I wasn't planning on writing again until after Thursday, when I am done with school forever. But since transit workers are giant cuntsacks, I got to work from home and thus had an hour to spare that would otherwise have been used for commuting purposes. However, I already wrote my soliloquey about why I hate strikes, so I don't feel like doing it again. Instead, I held an informal chatroom session to gauge the opinions of my loyal comrades.

MyDadIsAWeenie: i bet i can find one
HeroOfTimeLoZ: who doesn't work for mta?
MyDadIsAWeenie: drunk erin, you are going to moderate

MyDadIsAWeenie: anthony, what do you think about the transit strike
RumberoNYK: it's a pain in the ass
MyDadIsAWeenie: granted, but do you support their right to strike
RumberoNYK: i paid 15 bucks to go to 57th and 9th
MyDadIsAWeenie: you did not!
RumberoNYK: and 15 to get back
RumberoNYK: yes

MyDadIsAWeenie: that looks like gibberish, but totally makes sense
devilishnyc: yeah
MyDadIsAWeenie: there fucking must be SOMEone that's pro-union
HurricainFran: want me to pretend to be pro-union?
MyDadIsAWeenie: what would you say in their defense
HurricainFran: the union rocks, man
MyDadIsAWeenie: why does the union rock
HurricainFran: because they have cops that fine me lots of money when I jump the turnstyle thingie
devilishnyc: I <3 unions
devilishnyc: per sempre
devilishnyc: that is a good argument
MyDadIsAWeenie: your arguments are thinner than calista
HurricainFran: I think she died

Swooo705 has entered the room.
Swooo705: emmaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
MyDadIsAWeenie: SWOOOOOOOO
MyDadIsAWeenie: i have a question
Swooo705: what upppppp
MyDadIsAWeenie: what is your position on the transit strike
Swooo705: okay

Swooo705: i was watching the news earlier and this guy really affected me
MyDadIsAWeenie: who was he
Swooo705: a guy who work for transit
MyDadIsAWeenie: YES
MyDadIsAWeenie: WE HAVE A PRO-UNION OPINION
MyDadIsAWeenie: so you support their right to strike
Swooo705: YESSSSSSSSSS
Swooo705: they are getting paid nothingggggggggggg
Swooo705: cause from what the guy was saying he was like its so hard for me to suport my family
MyDadIsAWeenie: i feel like it would be harder to support them if he's on strike and the transit union gets fined $1 million a day
Swooo705: yeh
Swooo705: i have a question
Swooo705: if i were to go to the city tomorrow would i be able to get around?
MyDadIsAWeenie: that depends where you want to go
MyDadIsAWeenie: i mean, you can figuratively get anywhere, but it'll probably cost you
