196I think these buses are more than 300k, but anyway T mentioned.
Sweet. I get picked up by a $35 million vehicle with almost 10,000 horsepower, multiple employees, and a restaurant on board. Usually very punctual and never stuck in traffic.
Ah, lucky. I love the $35 million dollar, 10k horsepower vehicle. Mine didn't have a food car but train commutes are my favorite commutes. The Providence line was cursed though, always getting stuck or trolled by another train and therefore delayed. For hours sometimes :(
The hybrid 12m buses cost 800k USD here, after fleet pricing. They are not cheap.
Sheik's son studies in Prague. He writes a letter home, saying: "I'm sad to see my favorite professor commute by tram while I'm driven around in a Mercedes." A week later, a check for €3M comes with the note: "Go buy yourself a tram too."
It really is a shame how expensive private trains are
The number used to be way lower when the joke was created. I think T3 trams were being made still
Is that really a car?
My sister insists her SUV which gets to skirt around environmental rules because it's classified as a light truck is a "car". That's pushing it, I think. This bus is a motor vehicle, but it has more wheels than a car, and carries far more passengers than a car. It doesn't have to follow the same safety regulations that cars do (although it has some regulations of its own).
This joke was good the first time I saw it
for me, it's good right now, as this is is the first time I'm seeing it!
You are lucky!
hell yeah!
also, thank you for editing, I was confused initially, haha!
I hope you enjoyed the comic! I'll be more careful in the future when posting links!
example.com is my favorite xkcd
I feel so dumb for failing to post the link, but I also feel very proud that a fellow blahaj.zone user got the reference ❤️
(I laughed hard for your comment!)
Did you forget to include the actual URL?
lmao I feel so dumb... I did it without thinking, in autopilot mode :D I should have checked
Btw the link I wanted to share was https://xkcd.com/1053/ (I also edited my previous comment)
Jesus this was the most hilarious mistake I've made in a while :D
Red 600hp vehicle!
I mean if you can afford to live in Boston you must be doing pretty good.
the secret is living way the hell out of the city and spending 1+ hour commuting in on the 300k vehicles that pick you up
You pay for a twice daily ride share? Damn, big spender!
My city went fare free during COVID and managed to get a grant to stay that way 5 more years as a pilot. Super cool and feels like living in the future and I take it everywhere if I can.
Ah you got to the "so rich people give you stuff for free" kind of wealthy.
