What I thought was mere coincidence is apparently anything but.

For the umpteenth time, I saw three buses in a row congregating at the bus stop.

They all supposedly have different schedules – one was certainly there 10 minutes late, whereas another was 10 minutes early.

This effectively means that if you miss the bus, you now miss three buses, and have to wait an infinite amount of time before another one appears.

It also means that the schedule is there only for decoration, and catching the bus is all down to random chance.
