quicko: opposing bus bloopers

Double-edged sword:  you can be in a crowd and either

A. flag down the bus and feel stupid because everyone also gets on OR
B. anticipating A, not flag down the bus and it doesn't stop because it turns out everyone was waiting for a different bus.

Also, you can get on a bus that you're sure goes to the place you want to go to with the ticket you're sure you're supposed to have only to have the driver tell you have what is lost in his accent as either the wrong "bus" or "pass" and force you to get off and wait for the next one.
