If you were part of the organizing process of a city wide festival, shouldn't you qualify at least in the common sense part of the deal?
I have a beef with whom ever (or whom evers) came up with the idea of removing shuttle buses as events start closing (at a festival that lasts all night, I might add, and regular public transport has been long shutdown for the night) and hoards of people are trying to get onto the shuttle bus. I have an even huger beef with those who forced everyone off the shuttle bus into the cold (not to mention at a site that had already closed) THEN changed their mind, allowing other people back onto the shuttle bus, therefore leaving some of the original shuttlers in the cold as this newly packed bus drives away.
I must admit, I do praise them for offering and organizing and majorly improving (good bye schoolbuses, hello city buses) the shuttle system within the festival. Hurray to those who know what you are doing! I give you a big thumbs up. And to those with whom I have a beef: I hope you are replaced :P

It's like I've always said ... public transit S U C K S. Always has and always will. The moment you relinquish control over when, where and how you travel by lowering your standards to board a city bus (or any bus for that matter), you lose your freedom. Freedom to go where you want. Freedom to go when you want. Freedom to decide for yourself. And I know what you're going to say, "But the buses help keep drunks off the street!" Nonsense. I'm an adult and therefore I choose when, what and how much I drink. If I can choose to drink, then I must be responsible for my actions. If I choose to drink, I can just as easily choose to take a cab too. Any any idiot who doesn't want to bother with the expense of a cab (which is cheaper than the booze he just drank), or the trouble of picking up his car where he left it the night before can KISS MY ASS!!! (Hmmm, this might make a good blog topic on my own site :-)
