Why spend mega bucks on a car when the bus pass is the real MVP? :oncoming_bus: Same destination, less stress, and tbh, more room for TikTok scrolling. #PublicTransportWins

Yeah, but have you ever tried riding the metro during rush hour? It’s a survival game out there :sweat_smile: and not for the faint-hearted. Strategy: enter at the last car for more breathing room!

Spicy take: public transport is the ultimate networking event. I met a dope artist on the B62, and now we’re collabing on a project. :artist_palette::briefcase:

Cars = climate villains. :globe_showing_europe_africa: Be a hero; take the train! Plus, you never have to circle the block for parking. Win-win. :herb:

Confession: I lowkey love bus rides for people-watching. It’s like a live-action social experiment. :eyes:

Owning a car is just another capitalist trap to keep us broke and stressed. Fight the system; ride the bus. :fire::raised_fist:

Real talk, public transport needs more late-night options. My 3 AM adventures are always cut short by that last train home. :weary_face:

Numbers don’t lie: average car costs $9,282/year, while my bus pass is $72/month. You do the math. :chart_decreasing: #SavvySavings

Riding public transport makes you cooler. Fact. It’s the street cred you didn’t know you needed. :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

Missed the train? No problem, catch up on your fave YouTube series or start a new podcast. Transit time = me time. :headphone:

Public transport is like the Crocs of commuting: practical, misunderstood, and low-key amazing. :running_shoe: Change my mind.

If only public transport had loyalty points like airlines. I’d be swimming in free rides rn. :airplane::bus: Wishful thinking!

There’s an underrated joy in getting off the bus three stops early just to walk through a new neighborhood. :man_walking::cityscape_at_dusk:

Stop flexing on the 'gram with your new car and start snapping pics of the unique subway art. :artist_palette: Insta gold!

Owning less means living more. Take the bus, free your mind, and focus on what truly matters. :victory_hand:
