Waiting in the rain for a rural bus, and this happens
Original: Sitting in a bus shelter, waiting for a bus, and it's raining. I am right in the middle of nowhere, I'm surprised there'
A passenger waiting at a remote rural bus shelter in the rain, in an area so isolated they were surprised there was a pavement, had another person sit down beside them, snort noisily, light a cigarette and start watching videos without headphones. The anecdote has struck a chord as a relatable example of bad public etiquette in an unexpected place.
Why now: People find relatable, mildly infuriating everyday etiquette stories amusing and shareable.
