Rage Against the Machine


Was never a huge fan of the music, but this may be the best band name ever. See, I am so tired of being ass-fucked. It is not a loving, sensual ass-fuck, it is more the prison rape variety -- be it Comcast, or AT&T/SBC/Whoever or some airline or Dartalk or the city of Oakland.

The Ass-fuck of the Day (AFOTD) goes to AC transit, whose bus ate my $35 pass. After 15 minutes of trying to get the pass out, they give up and hand me a form to return to the cashier for a new pass. When said form goes to cashier, she tells me that they will contact me in a few weeks!?! I tell her that sucks and it means I need to buy a new pass and why can’t she just hand me the damn thing. She just stares at me, silently. Yep, I am getting ass fucked and there is nothing I can do about it.

See that is the thing about ass-fucking. The $35 is a bit of a shackle, but that is not that big a deal. The powerlessness of it is what gets me. There is not a damn thing I can do. That just riles up the rage.

To update my readers. Today, I received from AC Transit, a copy of my form + a second form that is exactly the same, with one extra question on it. It appears that the bus folks gave me an older version of the form.

More to come.

Wanted to update you that on Sat. 8/19, one month after the bus ate my pass, I did receive a new bus pass in the mail.
