(Seriously) I hope you are not joking about taking the bus.
I get along with no car myself, and wouldn't like it if you
implied that there is something wrong with taking the bus.

Was the original line a pun on "bus" as well?

Yes--BUS, roughly, is a connection board used in the
back of micro-processors to attach terminals, teletypes,
etc....

OK...I am now satisfied that use of public transportation
was not being ridiculed. (I did not know about the use of
"bus" in electronics.)

Dear Friends:
 
        I think using the bus is a lousy way to travel and
I ridicule it and state that only people who have serious
mental problems would ever take the bus and cool guys drive
big cars like Bill Lynch.

I think taking a bus is a rotten idea.  Everyone
should use cars--it's simpler and more convenient!

Dear Friend:
 
        I agree.  Unfortunately, I haven't got money for 
either a car or a bus, so I have to walk and hitch rides.
But if I had the money, boy oh boy, I'd buy a Camaro
'79 with "Badass" back tires and big side pipes and a
1000 cc overhead pop-shaft drive centered four by two and
stuff like that.
