When male genitalia make an unpublicized appearance on the bus ride to school, you know your morning can only "go up" from there.

On Tuesday morning, a woman riding on an RTS bus had the unfortunate luck of obliging what appeared to be one man's innocent request for a dollop of lotion.
While the Editorial Board is hardly a bunch of prudes, when we think lotion, we visualize moisturizing a pair of dry hands or soothing the razor burn from a hasty shave.
Hardly the case.

Heck, we're not even mad; that's amazing.
