OMG so true! I used to commute from Alexandria to Dupont Circle and it was brutal. Then later going from Alexandria to Crystal City...not quite as bad

Am I the only one that thought DC grid was easy to figure out? Numbered streets ran north to south, lettered ones run east to west. When they throw the circles and other streets in there, things got crazy

And THANK YOU, they need to put a Metro station in Georgetown. Because the buses from Rosslyn and Foggy Bottom are NUTS. If they can have one in chi-chi Friendship Heights (is that still a tony area?) then they can put one in G-town

I have been known to call someone out on the BART. Oh yeah, why can't trains run more often on BART? This every 20 minute shit doesn't cut it

Thank you! I can rant about the same thing at airports, especially when you are running to try to catch a flight and employees are chilling and chatting on the moving walkway. I had to get rude with someone in Phoenix
