Excitement on the Streetcar

It's never dull on the Spadina streetcar. A few months back, it was two ladies arguing about not pushing other people. Today, it's about butting in line to get on the streetcar. From what I gathered, this black dude butted in from of this brown dude in trying to get onto the streetcar from the front doors. Brown dude got upset about it and mouthed off to the black dude as he was heading to the single seats. It goes something like this:

Brown dude: Hey man, think you're so tough butting in front of the line, why don't you grow up, you're not a kid. Learn some manners. (this goes on for a little bit more before black dude gets up and heads back down the front of the street car)

Black dude: What you say to me? Do you know who the f*** I am? Remember Just Desserts? Remember Just Desserts? That was me and my crew. (goes on and on about his street creds. And this goes on for another 2-3 minutes of heated trading of verbal barbs, until the driver tells them to shut up as he was about to move from the station.

And I was thinking to myself, why on earth would you even say you were involved in that homicidal case? Was he aching for time at the nearest correctional facility?
Well no one can say it's ever dull on the 501 car. :)

yes...always exciting..but scary. I remember getting on and watching some guy having an argument with his reflection in the window. I think he had been smoking something.
