Fine china plates and dishes

I was riding the 32 bus in Washington, DC and this lady gets on muttering to herself, “That son of a bitch, that son of a bitch”. Anyway, she’s carrying two big shopping bags completely full of fine china plates and dishes. She walks to the back of the bus and sits down by the window. She opens up the window and as the bus moves down the street she starts throwing out the dishes, two or three at a time, screaming “That son of a bitch!” This goes on until she finally just shoves both bags of dishes out the window in one swoop.

I never knew why or what it was all about. I couldn’t stop laughing for days on end. Everytime I thought about it I would start giggling, even in public, and people would look at me funny.
