:marseychingchongitsover: I hate inefficient commutes so much :marseychingchongraging!:

So I'm on a journey to the north of Singapore to meet my wife who's attending a course there for dinner and I guess bored and annoyed enough to make a dumb blogpost :marseyshrug:

And yes, that is the kind of inefficient commutes that annoy me :soyjaktantrumfast:

So let A = me, B = wife, x = home, y = train station. z = training center

Let x -> y and y -> z have values of 30 to signify 30 minutes of travel time

So the round trip we're taking would be

A = ( x -> y , y - > z ) x 2 = 120 minutes

B = ( x -> y , y - > z ) x 2 = 120 minutes

240 minutes of commute

I suggested meeting at the train station instead since we could have dinner here anyway and we could get the groceries she wanted here too

Such a trip would take

A = ( x - y ) x 2 = 60 minutes

B = ( x -> y , y - > z ) x 2 = 120 minutes

180 minutes of commute


Long story short obviously she got pissy like every other ex-gf I've had in the same situation and I relented :marseybottom: so I'm on a commute that's needlessly 33.3% longer for us in total and she just texted me that she might end later than the time she gave me :soyjaktantrumfast:

ok this post was the waste of time I needed on the train

3 more stops to go

Sorry for the neurodivergent blogpost

I liked your trains/metro when I was visiting so there's that. I thought they were pretty quick.

But take this with a grain of salt as this is coming from a guy that lives in a place where we don't have a single metro and only ~6 rail lines over the entire country because there's apparently not enough people living here to justify building new infrastructure

Yeah they're excellent :marseycertified: and I have no qualms about that. In fact sometimes it's faster to just take a bus/train than if you drive :marseyme: during peak hours because buses have dedicated lanes at those timings to cuck the cars :marseychingchongitsover:

I was just very bored :marseywait: and a bit annoyed :marseymati: so i schizoposted to make the time pass faster lol and it worked

I hate dedicated bus lanes. They simply cause more traffic because they hope by slightly inconveniencing drivers, they'll take the smelly inconvenient bus.

Total city planner DEATH!
