Last Friday, I bought a pair of leather gloves at JC Penney. Last Saturday, I went out to Philadelphia with my friend Brian. We took the PATCO into Philly from Camden. When I got off the PATCO, I realized I only had one glove with me. Shit.
So I sucked it up and we went out. Nothing too eventful happened. Though I convinced Brian that we should take the PATCO back into Camden instead of a cab (like usual.)
Well. That was one of the best freaking ideas I've ever had. I just wanted to try and get my glove back but what I got was much, much more. On the train, we sat down near a group of about 10 20-something year olds. There was also a group of two guys, one of whom was a flamboyant asian kid. Separating the two guys from the group of 10 people was an old man, probably in his 60s.
Anyway, some of the girls in the large group started screaming about going to the diner. Then they started screaming at this girl they knew on the other side of the train. The asian kid starts talking shit to the girls, telling them to shut the hell up and that he's tired of hearing them talk about the diner. Chaos ensues. The asian kid starts taking on like 5 girls at once, bitching out them all one at a time.
The train is going nuts. People start to clap and cheer. The old man just closes his eyes and tries to tune it all out. A security guard comes over and tries to calm things down...and succeeds...but just in time for me and Brian to exit the train and get onto the platform in Camden.
And there, sitting under the seat I was sitting in...my glove...just like I left it. Victory.
And who said public transit sucks?
