Grade: B-
The Damen Avenue bus is the bus that stops service 10 minutes before you need it. And it's snowing. It's only 10:15pm. How could a bus on a main street not be in service then, I mean, right? I'll wait. I can wait. The bus will come. See! -- there's the Southbound Damen bus. That means the north bound one must still be running, right? Wrong. That's the CTA tease: when one direction is cut a full hour before the other. Waiting for the Damen Ave bus is like being stuck and abandoned in an elevator for 41 hours. Give up and take a cab. So much for saving money.

Wait. Really? 41 hours? I mean. Did he ever poo or pee? Were those moments edited out? Where did he put it? And did he ever even take his shoes off? I would take my shoes off. I'm not knocking him. I was on an elevator that stopped moving for like 25 seconds before I started losing my shit. But 41 hours? Really?

Another article, I forget which one but not the New Yorker one, said he opened the doors and peed down the elevator shaft.
