Uncle where’s my money?

This is especially annoying when you’re calling him and he’s mumbling under his breath ” Na sika wei nso wo mfa nky3?” Meanwhile, if the money you gave him was not enough, he would take the rest. Even if it’s 20 pesewas.

When the person sitting by the windows sits with their legs open.

It’s almost always the men. Please don’t calculate my ass size for cause the small space that you’ve left there no, I won’t fit there. It’s even worse when someone bigger comes to squeeze you into the middle. Cue the fight of the hips!

If I slap you.

Why can’t some people just be normal and put their arms over the back of the seat in front of them and sleep? Whyyyyy! You have to aggressively and passively shrug them off only for them to doze back onto your shoulders. Do you want to catch these hands please?

When the mate keep doing ” Hol der hol der” but no one is entering the Troski. For the introverts who can’t even ask for their change back, it’s always a relief to sit in a troski with someone will say ” Na driver wontu car no?” ( But driver won’t you move the car?) It might get bloody if the driver and his mate have a sharp mouth.
