This woman took the bus for a one mile hike while she was in college? Like, in her twenties she looked at the prospect of walking for just over a kilometer and a half, a distance you can apparently cover by bike faster than by bus, and she went “nah, I need mechanical help for that”.
Wait, we’re discussing the wrong thing entirely.

This happened in the US, didn’t it?
To be clear, this did not happen at all
Oh, you go around telling kids about the tooth fairy, too? Get in the spirit.
Lemmy: Cars are a plague and shouldn’t exist, communities need functional public transit
Also Lemmy: Someone used public transit when they could have walked? Pathetic.
Both can be true. I love public transport, but I wouldn’t take the bus for 1.5 km. I’d walk or, at most, take my bike.
Yes, also if it’s a little rainy outside.
What if you’re carrying a heavy backpack and the bus stop is right next to your class?
Don’t even bother, gatekeepers gonna gatekeep
I’m sure the physically disabled students at that college appreciate you letting them know that you think one mile is too short for a bus ride
