Foot and public transportation person. But as I am getting older and older, using public transportation annoys me more and more :)
I opt for walking (even what most people would consider ridiculous distances) instead of using public transit in Austin. Mostly because it's all buses and one rail with no branching.
What annoys you about public transit?
reply
It's very much context dependent on what counts as a "ridiculous distance". A 45 minute, 1 hour walk doesn't at all seem unreasonable to me, and I've walked places for 2, 3 hours when there's no time pressure

Then ask them how long they spend driving to the gym and working out to get the exercise you get for free from your foot commute.

Haha, there's the rub. Well, you have the moral and intellectual high ground waiting for you on the other side of that insulin sensitivity that won't return your texts ;)
Always something, frequent delays, interruptions in schedules, or recently the trains, I have to use to get to work, have gotten shortened in length and so seats for more or less the same number of people. Nah.
