Yes, fun article Yahtz. Like always. Anyway, I'm with you in all of it. But it's funny when someone completely disregards this etiquette which exists for purpose. I was sitting next to the window and the old hag sitting next to me took, like you said but now a wrong person, lively interest in the scenery going past outside. You can't imagine how's annoying when someone is looking through you. Moving her head to get even a better view. Getting closer with her head. I don't know but I was THIS close from messing up her face with my elbow and screaming "GET OUT FROM MY FACE, WILL YA!!"

Ok, I was not. I'm not capable for that.

But after that event I realized how neat it would be if I suddenly decided to poke her eye with my finger. That would startle her and made her leave MY fucking seat. I mean the bus got completely empty halfway. Are you STUPID bitch? MOVE, MOVE, MOVE!!!


I'm really a nice person.

I have my own solution to bus problems: I had to ride the bus to and from school everyday for about four years, but there was always one seat in the back that's cut in half so that only one person is able to sit there. I fought tooth and nail for this seat every single day to ensure that no matter how crowded the bus got I would be sitting alone.

Ok, I didn't really fight for it...I just ran really fast to get to it first, established it as "mine", and if anyone else sat there, I'd glare at them threateningly until they moved.




...Yeah, I have space issues.

I just put my Harry Potter backpack on the seat next to me. Or Yahtzee, either is good.

You'd be surprised how many people actually prefer to stand for a twenty minute bus journey than actually interact with someone to ask them to move their bag.

There are two ways I use buses, if and when I use them:

1.) When they're half empty.

2,) With a crowd of half a dozen giant metalheads. That usually moves people...

I'm going to assume you're talking about robots, just for the mental image.

I'm referring to those who praise heavy metal as the panthenon of music, not the Daleks' mates... rolleyes.gif

Chyld, you just need a tall aryan man to look at everyone menacingly, then all your troubles will be solved.

Everyone fears the aryans, that's why they had a fan club in Germany up untill 1945.

No one wants to talk about you, though.

Starved for attention, are you. Very well then.
