Got a boy at Gonzaga who rides metro home?

[Anonymous]

Sounds like kids being kids. Not a big deal compared to some of the crazy stuff I have seen on the metro. I see Gonzaga boys on the metro regularly. They’re no better or worse than normal teenagers. I’m guessing OP has younger kids and hasn’t gotten to the teenage stage yet

I appreciate the parents saying they expect better manners out of their boys!

Perhaps the entitled behavior that is often mentioned when discussing Gonzaga is because of the “who cares” and “boys will be boys” mentality?

If the students are wearing their school logo, which they always are, I can assure you the school administrators would expect courteous behavior from the GZ students.

Just talked to DS. He said in his first 2 years he saw maybe 2 Gonzaga students jump the gate. Of course they will take up 2 seats if no one is trying to sit (as will I).
Reminded him to keep shoes off seats.

I spread out too if the cars aren’t full.

My sons and husbands give their seats to elderly, women, kids, etc. They hold doors, etc—but if the train car is half full and nobody needs a seat …who cares?

train car.

You said your car. Its not yours, mind your own business.

I'm not OP but you are definitely what's wrong with the society today. If I am riding on a public train, it IS my business because tomorrow I might have to sit on that nasty seat. Raise your children to sit in chairs properly.

Shoes are the least of your worries on those seats. So long as you're not going to lick them I'm sure you'll live Gladys.

Hey Karen, I’m sorry that your parents didn’t raise your right, and that you’re passing down your idiocy to your spawn. In a civilized society where I was raised we do not put our shoes on furniture, and especially not on public transport. So since you failed to raise your children, I’m grateful for OP who will hopefully teach them. I ride the Marc train and the conductors will definitely tell your brat to get his feet off the seat.

So you are a seat licker

They learned about manspreading from seeing all the manspreading in their lives. These 4 Gonzaga boys are not the problem.

can't wait for the mansplaining of the manspreading

It was lovely today. Most schools were closed. Most workers were working from home- not in DC. Metro was empty and my drive into DC was 7 minutes. Probably basking in the space and empty trains…

Country club poster, most certainly. She’s on a roll.

I’m impressed that these kids commute independently to school on the metro. My snowflakes expect to be driven and would hate having to metro 30 minutes to school.

Meanwhile, public school kids harass other riders, scare the shit out of women, never pay and act like complete a$$holes but let’s pick on kids who pay and may be a bit inconsiderate. What a douchebag OP is.

Reminds me of the post a few years ago about the Landon boys.

Same!

was the train crowded? Did someone need a seat?

You seem new here on the metro.
