Purgatory With Pantagraphs

From the depths of commuter hell, comes Purgatory with Pentagraphs. These are the continuing stories of the brave souls who commute daily to Chicago on the South Shore electric train, and the muggles who are unfortunate enough to meet them.

Freak of the Weak (pun intended)

Well with the impending Dan Ryan construction and all of the little bastards who actually get to take a Spring Break, the South Shore has been a mess of people stealing my seats, and today was no exception.

Today we got lucky and saw a woman of about 45-50 years old, who looked like she took I Love the 80's waaaaaaaaaay too seriously, and decides that the Brett Michaels haircut would never die. Add to this that she got to sit with the 3 Gorditas for half of the trip, and it can make life interesting. Once the Gorditas departed for greener grazing pastures, this woman had a pissed off look that made even this brazen commuter decide to stay put. I am not quite sure if the look of death or the feathered haircut lasted longer, but I sure didn't want to put in the 20 years to find out. Then again 45 minutes with the Gorditas would make me want to kill someone, and that is without looking like a groupie from a Motley Crue video. Congrats to our latest nominee.
