What has always impressed me about BART is the horrific racket you hear when riding on it. Like the sound track to a bad Sci-Fi movie.

Liberals and Progressives hate you.

The conditions on BART are just a symptom.

Isn’t SF Weekly a liberal rag?

In case your mother hadn't told you, BART is not your personal potty, which means shitting and pissing on the escalators, floors, seats, and ticket machines is a no-no. If you can't hold it, then poop in your own pants, that's what your underwear is for.

You take up two seats with your crap while the rest of us stand:

Look, I don't want to sit next to you any more than you want to sit next to me, but I also don't want to stand. So move your Trader Joe's bags and your exercise ball or whatever the hell it is you feel entitled to bring on the train and give me that seat. And stop giving me dirty looks.

Ah, the genius of Urban Mass Transit, given to us by our Enlightened Pubic Servant Ruling Class.

The author forgets to mention all the times he sees the Mayor, SF District Attorney, and Chief of Police riding to work with him on the BARF line.

I'm sure it's just an oversight. After all, you see the same public officials taking the same train you do every day, pretty soon they stop seeming special. You start to see them as just ordinary folks, right?

In some pervert circles that might be a draw in SF.

And people wonder why I don't do (US)public transportation.

Yep I have used public transport in other countries.

Some are as nasty as US but some places are actually civilized. People are clean, polite and act like humans.

But even there I hate public transportation.

Who the hell rides mass transit but losers, libtards (I repeat myself) and the homeless?

Besides, they don’t call them Massholes for nothing.

I think mass transit is pretty much the same everywhere.

In Japan there are “Women only” cars on the Tokyo subway because of all the male gropers.

I can’t count the times I had to sit beside someone on a Hong Kong bus that probably hadn’t had a shower since 1955

The subway and train stations in Italy smell like urine.

The Shanghai subway is new but the cars already look like they are poorly maintained

The tube trains in London are almost always dirty and filled with people who look miserable.

The subways in New York while better than they used be are still repulsive and sometime scary.

You can walk faster than the subway in Moscow

Yes I have ridden all of these

Spot on....

I was going to add they smell like Shiite but, the author had essence of his rant attenuated and peaked perfectly.

One time when I rode BART to my summer job in SF, during law school, I sat across from an elderly man with a drippy nose. The snot hung from his nose straight down, around 10 inches long, and dangled there. It went up and down like a yo-yo, stretching and shrinking, as the car moved. It was the most fascinatingly repulsive thing I have ever seen. I did not have a tissue to give him, and nobody else noticed or cared.

I love my car. If Obama wants me to use public transportation, he will have to pry the steering wheel out of my cold, dead hands.

I was riding on BART behind this young couple, and the guy took out his "grill" out of his mouth and showed it to his girl and she tried it out and put it in her mouth.

Nothing says "love" like sharing your grill with your babe. :-)

For a few bucks a day, it's the safest indoor warm seating a homeless person can find. And the stations have bathrooms, too.

Pay your fare for the minimum distance, and then ride back and forth in air-conditioned comfort until they kick you out.

The problem with public transportation is that it is public.
