As promised, here is the continuation of the FX Tales which I've posted in my previous entry.
FX Commuter Type 5: The Muncher
You just got on the FX, you’ve handed your fare to the driver, and now you’re set to relax and just enjoy the ride – could be sleeping or listening to some random mp3 – then a weird smell creeps it’s way into the congested interior of the FX. Fish? Vinegar? Ahhh… Jollibee Regular Yum. Looks like the Muncher is at it again!
Basically, the Muncher is that FX passenger who just can’t stop eating from the moment he lines up for the next ride until that few moments before he gets off. From hamburger-and-french-fries to junk foods-and-soda, the Muncher gets away with it and ends his commanding performance with a “Burp!”, silent or otherwise.
FX Commuter Type 6: The Prima Donna
Another type of an annoying FX commuter are those that I so-call the Prima Donnas – those women who can’t seem to get it in their thick skull that they’re riding a PUV instead of their respective private cars. Geez! They just can’t seem to stop complaining – from the lousy air conditioning to the smell of the FX interiors. I get it, everybody just wanna get the most of their fare’s worth; but when you look around you and you realize that everybody else is being tolerant given the circumstance, some less ranting would be nice.
FX Commuter Type 7: The Chatterbox
They usually come in pairs or more – two people or a group of friends, young or otherwise, who have the tenacious energy of indulging themselves to non-stop chatter from the moment they line up for the next ride until they reach their destination. They talk about anything and everything under the sun – cheating neighbors, thankless jobs, lovelife, celebrity gossips, and anything else that comes up. In other words, they are the more-energy-mas-happy type of people.

Well, there you have it. I originally composed this blog on my mobile phone on a humid Wednesday night, right after I got off my Risk Management class in Taft. I wasn't able to finish it because I dozed off, and everytime I try to come up with a decent ending I either doze off while listening to some mp3 or I prefer surfing the mobile internet - the two top things I do when I'm on my way to work or homeward bound. Besides that, I guess observing fellow passengers and finding humor (LOTS of it!) when I least expect inside the confines of the so-called FX would be third.
