A Commute to Paris, France for a Normal Workday

[rickysrant]

It should be a lot more crowded in the morning. What gives?

[slobomotion]

@rickysrant Summer. This is the most busy métro line in Paris and there are huge complaints about this. August here is kinda ghost town like, even in the ghetto where I live. A lotta people go back to Le Bled. I put up a lotta vids of us doing tourism in Paris this past August and it was nuts, we got free street parking with the car, most streets were deserted. Les grands vacances! It gets really trippy here in August. You feel as though you are in some kind of slo mo.

The glass walls are there because the system is now fully-automated - there are no drivers on the trains anymore! It's not dumb, it's state-of-the-art.

@godofsloth There are both drivers and conductors on this train. Only the meteor is fully automated. Have you been here recently? Thanks for watching!

LISA have u ever been 2 THE NETHERLANDS??.

[slobomotion]

@chadberry75 I worked there.

Having it fenced of or with glass is a good idea IMHO. Dangerous to stand there near edge! Interesting about the industrial smell. Should be ventilation for that!

[slobomotion]

@amy2x It is all saturated into the ground. When they planted grass in the Stade de France, it would not even grow. All the dirt for the site had to be trucked to another country and scrubbed with fire, then brough back. Hey, we still find bombs here! You cannot ventilate against such things. All the fresh air in the world does you no good under 19th century gasworks and still-ticking bombs, sorry! xo

I think most of the people looked back and French.

@valhala56 This sentence makes no sense, please clarify, and always love hearing from ya. xo

People just stare in Paris. Gotta get used to it ahaha.

[slobomotion]

@VilleMagique It is fun staring back at them and calling them asswipes and such. They love it.

[uspimpclub]

did you wear something different cause those people on the train gave you 'the look' or they just looked angry? lol

[slobomotion]

@uspimpclub I was dressed totally normally for a lady in Paris, including with a summer straw hat which matched my jacket. This is back to school, back to work time, and people felt cranky this morning, I think. Myself included, I guess! I annotated this vid since you saw it, hope you look again! xo

[slobomotion]

@uspimpclub I was naked, which was a huge shock to them all, I feel certain.
