Hellions On the Amtrak Train May 18, 2011 | Registered: 13 years ago Posts: 4,176 |
Ok, I spent my last day of vacay catching up on all my reading and really wanted to post this yesterday but I have more time now so here's a little story about my travels the last couple of days.
My boyfriend and I went to Reno and decided to take Amtrak to California and then drive over I80 to get there - sort of a fun adventure, see what a train was like, etc.
We get on about 11am and everything is going smooth, train gently clicking over the tracks and pretty scenery, etc.
That didn't last long.
The stop after ours, a skanky African American moo with two of the most ill-behaved she-demons I have ever seen got on and it was almost nonstop hell for the next 20 hours.
These two fucking awful brats screamed, talked, fought, ran, spilled, laughed, cried, screamed, ran, screamed, ran, cried, screamed, and ran almost the entire fucking way down to California. Did I mention they screamed and ran? Their moo, who only continually SSSSHHHH!ed them and yelled at them with no discipline whatsoever (and in a train coach you can hear everything) finally got them to fall asleep at about 10pm - unfortunately the silence was shattered by three dumbass rednecks who wouldn't shut the fuck up after Quiet Time in the Coaches - so I gave them the crustiest look I could muster. Adults should fucking know better. They saw me and were quiet afterward. It's a miracle I was able to get any sleep. My boyfriend, who is WAY more tolerant than I am, was even at the end of his rope. See what you're missing, babes? Aren't you thrilled I will never do this to you and that we live an amazing, organized, quiet life of two independent, sexually-active, happy adults with NO screaming?
Anyway the rest of our vacation was fucking amazing (no kids in Reno! - there are signs posted everywhere about kids NOT being allowed in the casinos and the security guards back it up, they kicked out a moo with her two underage 18-year olds while I was winning on Triple Play Poker) and after a treacherous and razor-close trip back to the train station (weather), we ended up in the line to board with - you guessed it - two young fattie moos with an infant and a 4 year old whose nightmarish behavior they blamed on ADHD.
Another moo got on with her still-in-diapers 4 year old he-brat, who screamed, cried, and talked nonstop (apparently he can barrage his mother with nonstop questions about trains and form complete sentences, but can't figure out how to use a toilet), but in Moo's defense at least she beat his ass a couple of times and got him to go to sleep. Mercifully they got off halfway up the coast, though they left a mess of crushed crackers and twisted up garbage all over their seating area.
The two young moos apparently thought that letting their asshole 4 year old stomp up and down, scream, and fuck with the seats was funny because they didn't even bother to yell at him or SSH him hardly at all - instead, they just laughed every time the little shit cut up. I can only imagine their fussy infant will turn out just as shitty. It was so bad that my boyfriend suggested we spend as much of the trip in the lounge car away from these animals as possible - and like I said, he is WAY more tolerant than I am. I was actually bemused to watch him notice how fucking horrible breeders are. When they finally got off, all four seats they were occupying were filthy with mystery garbage and food debris. Boyfriend was shocked, but I certainly wasn't. I took pics but haven't uploaded them yet.
In short, the train would be a stellar way to travel if they just put all the breeders in their own famblee cattle car, which my boyfriend wholeheartedly came to support after I suggested it. He even said he was going to email Amtrak about it because the trip was so bad due to these fucking loser assholes.
Why can't they go play on the tracks??? Given a choice, flying is better, at least it only takes a couple of hours. Too bad Amtrak hasn't figured out that breeders are going to drive them out of business because they kill the experience completely.

I've been on Greyhound. The Amtrak train *would* be an amazing way to travel if people could fucking behave. Fortunately none of the breeders figured out how to make their way to the lounge car or the dinner car so we had reprieve. I seriously think moos and their twatwaffles should be consigned to their own cordoned-off area.

What a nightmare Law!!!!!:hs
I don't think that little kids should be allowed on planes, trains, boats, ferries, subways, overhead rails, taxis, space ships, buses, shuttles, or teleportation devices when those become available. Private cars are the only way that they should be allowed to travel.

If YOU are the "exception" to what I am saying, then why does my commentary bother you so much?
I don't hate your kids, I HATE YOU!

It was a nightmare but the good side of it was that my BF got an eagle's eye view of breeders and what it's like to have brats around. I don't think it ever occurred to him to really notice these things before he met me. Now he's becoming as intolerant as I am. With a little time he might become as hard core as I am.

It doesn't help you, but you'll be glad to know some asshole was kicked off Amtrak for talking on her cellphone non-stop in the designated quiet car on a 16-hour trip.
So, in your letter, you can applaud Amtrak for taking this move and encourage them to do it more often (warning: Amtrak is breeder-friendly--they even have a rule against swearing because of teh chyldren, so be careful how you word it). You can also mention this whenever some breeder tries to defend children's noises by complaining that adults can be just as obnoxious: "Yes, they can be, and they get kicked off the train, as they should be."
Note that this raging asshole, Lakeysha Beard, felt "disrespected" by the incident. Most of the people commenting tore her a new one.

OMGawd, I am truly aggrieved for the suffering you had to endure.....I'm very surprised the other passengers in that car didn't start a fucking mutiny or dish out some whoop ass on that Moo or insist to the conductor/staff that they be thrown off on their asses at the next stop like the 16 hour cell phone blabber lady.
U.S. is really the only 1st world country without a decent rail system overall, except places like Chicago, Tri-State, NYC are great but have to be chock full of breeders that refuse to collapse their hummer strollers on a rush hour train.
I spent 5 weeks in Spain in '03 (prior to the 3/11 bombings which is scary even when I think about it now, that could have been me or my group). It was my college graduation pressie. Vast majority of time was in urban Madrid and we did alot of subway time and I almost never saw Moo's/kids/preg moo's. Spain has one of the lowest birth rates in the world. People seem to know how to behave themselves on trains across the pond.

dreamwalker, we do get assholes on the trains here, too, but there are fewer of them and train staff are more proactive about dealing with them. I've had to move to another car due to noisy bratlings and cell-phone shriekers, however. At least most of the train rides you can take where I live will be in the ~30 minute range, which makes noises much more endurable than they would be on Amtrak.
