Who else felt the earthquake?

[Devia]

Friend in LA just told me they literally just had another earthquake? Anyone else confirm?

Magnitude 4.1 at 3:49pm local time.

Compared to riding the buses in other parts of the country? Considering the sheer amount of lines, how often they run during business hours, and so on, so forth, yes, it's fantastic. You can get anywhere you need to go.

Unless where you need to go requires you to be there at the same time every day. Like a job.

South Bay > West Side by public transportation is not a daily working commute I would wish on my worst enemies. It is that bad, that sporadic, and that prone to just blow right by your bus stop because the busses are too few and far between to have empty seats for you. And god help you if you're trying to help your walking distance by carrying a bike. 50% chance one or both racks are taken or broke.

Your luck sucks, but I rode several bus lines in a row to a job for over a year, and it was about an hour and a half each way. I did get to work terribly late occasionally, but not most of the time. More often than not, I was sitting around for an hour or two after work, waiting for a bus to actually show up. Getting there was not the problem.

^I've always shunned @ your liberal, yet primitive views. However, I agree w/ you...

That's an adorably underhanded statement you made there. It's unfortunate that you're never capable of elaborating on your own thought process, and that you believe someone who can thoroughly argue a point is "primitive." Are you in the super hyper future where mankind has evolved past thinking and back into the stone age? Cool.

How long was the commute by car? Where were you going from/to? 3 hours on the bus every day sounds awful.

Yep felt it, felt like a waste of my time to get off the couch. Even my BF from NY was like...yeah that was small. I predicted 4.0+, as always I am right.

SoCal for life!

It's possible, or maybe the 33/333 is the worst bus line ever created by man or beast, so bad that it was often more profitable to ride a mile south from the DTLA Blue Line station and take a completely different line to la cienega then ride a bike the rest of the way.

Venice Beach to Culver City, about twenty minutes by car. Traffic and waiting at bus stops was what made it take so long.
