Now who would throw away a nearly full package of Top Ramen? This type of behavior is wasteful and should not be tolerated in these harsh times. I'm not particularly fond of packaged ramen noodles but when you don't have anything else to eat, these can be a godsend. I found this bag right next to a bus stop just east of my home. The noodles looked like they were soaked so I would have to guess that someone was eating them dry with lemon juice. Or...My hypothesis: The fellow that was guilty of eating this bag of noodles rides the 9:15am bus every morning to work. The previous night he drank himself to sleep due to being upset because of the crushing defeat of his beloved San Francisco Giants at the hands of the San Diego Padres. Because he stayed up late and drank too much, he awoke at an unexpected 9 o'clock. In order to make the 9:15 bus he was gonna have to hurry. He skipped his normal hygiene rituals so no shower, no shave, and also no breakfast. He grabbed what he thought was the easiest food to prepare, shrimp flavored Top Ramen Noodles, and doused the dry food with lemon juice. In his hurried state, he forgot that there was no food allowed on the bus and also that his nemesis, Charlie the bus driver, had already caught him eating on the bus twice. A third strike would ban him from ever riding public transportation on that side of the city. This was all realized at the last possible moment as the bus pulled up. In a panic, he tossed his make-shift meal behind him just as he boarded the bus. And that is how a full bag of Top Ramen happened to find it's way on the sidewalk. The end.
