Seriously, my new favorite writing prompt is thanks to a bus seat drama

Who knew a bus fight could give me such a cool prompt for a story?

Totally get that. Normal stuff can have the best stories hidden in it. Makes you pay more attention to boring bus rides.

Overheard a life story last Tuesday.

My buddy saw two guys arguing over a window seat, and it turned out they were both going to the same job interview. They ended up sharing a cab, and the guy who gave up the seat got the job because the other one put in a good word for him. The whole thing started over who got to look at a stupid billboard. Makes you wonder how many stories you miss by just putting in headphones.

Wait really? Most bus fights are just people being loud and annoying. What could possibly be that interesting about it?
