Anyone ever traveled on Greyhound? How was it? Terrible? Wonderful? Is there a place to charge your phone with a car charger?I'll be riding in one for a total of 1 day and 18 hours. Tips for passing the time?
I went from Portland to Vancouver. It was OK. Just take headphones and sleep and read. Oh and take snacks.
Be prepared to meet some real scummy people. I actually saw someone change their baby's diaper right in the middle of the terminal the last time I rode one, and the bus broke down twice in a 2 hour ride.
>>5644786With that long of a trip, it's going to end up being well over 2 days long. Don't ever, ever expect a greyhound to arrive even close to on time.
100 niggers, including the driver. not kidding, from texas to ohio, i was the only whitey on the bus.
That's a long fucking trip. Isn't it cheaper (or at least comparable) to take a plane or train? Or are you doing it for the "experience"?
I went from Los Angeles to manhattan on the Greyhound. Took 5 fucking days and my ass was numb as shit. Overall, its ok depending on who you have to sit next to. I like to drink some scotch and sit all the way on the long seat in the back to stretch out. Assuming its not packed. You can get blowjobs, its a nice place to meet fuck buddies, too.
Got decapitated on my way to winnipeg, shit was so not cash.
>>5644854>>cheaper to take a plane than a buslolwut?
It's ok, get on the bus early and bring a pillow so you can get a window seat and just pass out. The overnight drivers are mostly assholes so try to block them out with music(mp3 player). Switching buses is the only really bad part, don't fall asleep and try to figure out what in the name of all things holy they just said on the intercom... most of the time it sounds like they just beat the mic on the desk.
>>5644854It's not cheaper to fly or to take a train.I would take the train in a millisecond, though.
>>5644873Low cost airlines?1 day 18 hours of bus seems like the distance I could travel by plane on easyjet for shenanigans.
Pretty Hungry.
It's essentially like riding a plane for poor people.The trip mostly depends on who you get seated next to, just like on a plane.The one time I did it, I was lucky enough to sit next to some guy who had just returned from basic, so we chatted about the military for a while.
Bring lots of booze. Get wasted. Seriously.
Took a greyhound for like 8 hours once. Thing was, I was going from Boston to New York.They're always late as shit. I had a decent seatmate but there were also some super creeps on the bus. Some guy was talking to his girlfriend and said something like "mmm yes, once I arrive we can finally bask in the pleasures of the flesh" or something close to that.I would suggest it only as a last resort.
