Translink Annoucement: May-Jah Dissapointment


Photobucket

There was a lot of buzz, elections related and otherwise, about the extension of SkyTrain service to UBC’s campus, and the impact that rapid-transit would have on development plans etc.

Not all were elated by this news. No dear reader- I was one of the few, the proud, the strong who shed a single emo tear upon hearing of this catastrophy. This is because I was privy to secret knowledge of what might have been the future of transit at UBC.

Luckdragons: mythical creatures of legend and lore, these dragons fly at rapid speeds, can carry numerous students on their broad shoulders and strong backs, and look like giant puppy dogs. They are by far the most exciting and practical choice for the UBC Community and the obvious rejection of their use is just another example of student voices being silenced.

Victoria Beckham, international pop star and secret Luckdragon advocate, described the possibility of Luckdragon-transit as, “very-very-may-jah!” at a recent conference on the subject held in Fantasia.

Not only do Luckdragons fall into the scientific category of “really-friggin’-sweet”, they are also sustainable. It is common knowledge that these mighty beasts do it like rabbits (making replenishment of the city’s investment a non-issue), but they also breath fire, perfect for impromptu cremations of older models.

Straight up people- a former spicegirl, me, and jesus can’t be silenced forever- mark my words the day of the Luckdragon is coming. And it’s gonna be scientifically friggin sweet.
