I feel bad.

Aug 13, 2009 21:45

One thing I noticed about taking public transit more often now, is that I feel really bad for people. I mean, I've always felt bad for people in general. For instance, my go-to image to make myself cry is to imagine a fat guy shame eating in a fast food establishment's parking lot because he can't let people see how much he's eating*.

Anyway, for awhile I kept seeing old balding or overweight guys in Best Buy or Home Hardware uniforms with really old wraparound headphones and CD players :(
Then I saw short Asian dudes with backpacks and round glasses and no game :((
Also old men going anywhere with a lunch bag :(

I don't know where I'm going with this. I need to stop worrying that old or ugly people are lonely and hate their lives. Because maybe they don't!

Also for some reason I am still not that sympathetic to homeless people and am still pretty racist.
