This week I had to cover a friend's lab because she couldn't be there. It happens to be the week of a short field trip where we visit a place about thirty minutes away from campus. We shuttle students out there in twelve passenger vans. As I pulled out of the parking lot with a van full of students, I went over a speed bump too fast, and bounced the students in the back seat around a little.
Me: Sorry.
Student: What? You're not used to driving a big van like this?
Me: Not like this. The van I drive doesn't have any windows.
Student: Or passengers?
Me: Exactly. And I usually drive a lot slower as I'm patrolling neighborhoods looking for kids to offer free candy to.
Student: . . .

Had to be there, lol.
Ah, you have a rape van. Me too! Mine is painted camoflage-- better for discreet kidnapping.
one day you'll be lifted by the cops....one day....heh
our company van is just as you've described and my neighbors always give me the stink eye when I drive it home.
field trips are so much more fun when you go to them in creepy vans.
is this yours???
