So the #TransitApp has a question about whether there's shelter at a bus stop, but no option for "no, but in a few years if they replant the dead trees behind the bus stop, there might be a little bit of shade." #transit #publicTransit #bus #urbanism
@kingtor Isn't the hashtag for that #CouldaBusStop ? (Somehow this reminds me of @scott 's current trip to Los Angeles, or maybe I'm confusing that with my many trips taking transit to various parts of LA)
@soaproot @scott #couldaBusStop makes me think of our dad's #couldaGolf
@kingtor Exactly what I had in mind. For those not familiar, the rules of #couldaGolf go something like "if I hadn't sliced the second shot on hole 4 I coulda saved a stroke, if I had sunk that putt on hole 13 I coulda saved two strokes . . . all in all I coulda shot a 74"
@soaproot those rules are well summarized, except I don't ever remember a coulda score as low as 74. Some (such as the inventor of #couldaGolf) might say this was because one must be ruthlessly honest in their assessment of what they coulda done, others (who shall remain anonymous) might say it's because you can't even cheat your way out of that many strokes.
@kingtor It has been so many years that I don't even remember a typical score (except that I remember it was a lot higher than the scores I saw on TV by professionals)
@soaproot
Nor do you need to. It's taking up space in my brain that would probably be better devoted to something else.
