>A gigantic yellow bus literally stops outside your house to take you to school

Does this really still happen in America, or is it just something that only happens on tv, like parents "grounding" children?
>>
>>63036091
They exist, but its for poor people
>>
>>63036091
No, you have to walk five minutes to get to the school bus stop where the bus will pick up all the neighborhood children.
>>
Seems comfy 2beeh family
>>
>>63036091
Yes, this happens if you don't live in a city.
>>
it still happens. you dont think kids will walk a few miles to go to school do you?
>>
If you live somewhere very remote they might stop right in front of your house, but normally an entire neighborhood shares a school bus stop.
>>
It's extremely common where I live (washington state), but they don't stop "at" your house unless you live in the middle of nowhere. They tend to drive routes with a few specific pickup and dropoff spots, like a normal bus. You just figure out which one is closest to your house and walk there in the morning.

If you live out in the middle of nowhere, you can usually get one to come pick you up personally. Youth education is considered a basic human right in America and the government takes it very seriously, and they WILL provide transportation to the schools if it is needed.

>be first kid to be picked up
>have to sit for an hour because the bus stops in every god damn house

No wonder they shoot schools
>>
>>63036091
It's true, but the buses are generally black. Hence the saying you'd hear most parents use every morning when it's school time, "Hurry up, honey, it's time to get blacked."

any typical school has to collect kids from 15-20 miles around it

i had to get up at 5:30am to catch the bus because i lived 17 miles away from school

Same, and I'm not even American. I had to wake up all highschool 2 hours earlier then my classmates, and got back home 3 h later because of this shit. No wonder I turned up a robot.

Everything is bigger and more spread out in America because we have a lot of cheap land. Even poor families can live in a decently sized house with a large lawn if they live in a suburban area. We have tons of huge parks and wide roads.

Long distances to schools is the price you pay.
>>

in high school it was incredibly lame if you took the bus because it was mixed with middle schoolers. i lived in a moderately upper class town, so mostly everyone drove as soon as they were 16. if you wanted to be perceived as even a little bit cool, you could not take the school bus. my parents didn't buy a car for me until i was 18, but by then my sister used it all the fuck damn time so from 16-18 i had to walk to school every fucking morning. it was only like 20 minutes on foot, but still sucked when it snowed. anyways that's my school bus story.
>>
I lived 3 miles away from my elementary school and middle school. I would've had to walk an hour along rural roads with no sidewalks in a town with bobcats, bears, skunks, and raccoons with rabies. That would've taken 2 hours out of my day and in a town with heavy snow in the winter it's just not practical.

Same here. The regular driver all throughout elementary school was a black lady who always played some hip hop station

I remember getting a substitute driver for a couple of weeks, was some guy in his mid twenties, who didn't play the radio and instead sang songs from Disney movies to us on the drive to school.

Looking back I wonder if he wasn't a pedo

If you ever see the parking line up at the school in the morning and afternoon of parents picking up their kids, you'd understand why more people utilize the bus system. It's a fucking mess. Parents don't know how to drive for shit, believe their kid is the most important person in existance, drive the wrong way, disregard stop signs, and flip people off on the reg.

We're not living on a tiny little island mate.

USA is like the size of all western europe.

we're fat because historically the boldest and most extreme people left their countries for the USA. People that live in the moment.
