supermik Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Once got on a bus at about 8 in the morning in Cancun. We had to stand although the bus was only half full. All the locals were sat in the aisle seats and all the window seats were empty. As most of them were drinking and the fact that Mexico has a major habit of killing people willy nilly we thought that standing was the safest option. Greatest bus journey that I have ever been on was in Gran Canaria. The trip from Puerto Rico to Mogan is incredible. The road has a massive sheer drop at the side and the terror at times is up there with the best rollercoasters. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finch road Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 I fucking hate buses. When I worked at Asda in Toryglen Ruggy was always too pished too pick me up at nights so had to get the bus home. It was always late. Always full of jaikies getting off at the Circus. Feared for my life every time I had to use it. Oh and Glasgow buses are shite for no giving out change. #perthshire Stagecoach will give you change from a £20 note. I'l nominte Stirling bus station as one of the biggest shitholes in Scotland. Bus stations worldwide are a meeting point for the dregs of society. Seen it everywhere I've ever been 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael W Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Chancer pensioners who try and use their bus pass before 9am, knowing full well that it isn't valid and thus holding everyone up else up for no reason. Sponging c***s. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That 20 minute wait in the bus station was scary as hell. 30 minutes ago, Michael W said: Chancer pensioners who try and use their bus pass before 9am, knowing full well that it isn't valid and thus holding everyone up else up for no reason.

tamthebam Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 boots who put their shopping/handbags next to them to stop folk sitting on seats. You didn't pay for two seats ya cow. fat munters who take up two seats. walk ya salad dodgers. You can even feel a 12 ton bus move when these fat fuckers get off. horrible wee neds with their shitey music being blasted out from phones who sit at the back of the top deck. c*nts who leave you standing on the stairs instead of making room when you're about to get off. Mind you, I got my revenge one day- the driver braked sharply, I went flying down the stairs and landed on this twat who hadn't made room for me. schemie boots with prams- buy a folding one and fold it up like my ma did. there were a few smart ass c*nty bus drivers as well but LRT seem to have got rid of them all. There's now a couple of honeys driving the buses about Edinburgh. more of this kind of recruitment as it makes my day going to work. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not uncommon for it to be 9.30am in some places. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, plenty time for them to ring up the producer on "Call Kaye" and bag a spot to complain about how the SNP won't let them use their pass before half nine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still half gassed from the night before. Mrs Ranter was sat in the passenger seat shitting herself, she felt like she was hanging over the drop half the time. I've never known her so quiet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zetterlund Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 There's always a c**t who, on the hottest day of the year, with the interior temperature of the bus at 40 degrees and the underseat heaters invariably on full blast, gets up and leans across you to close the fucking window cos he/she's getting a draught. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 I’ve got that app on my phone for First Bus, meaning that I just scan my e ticket and it gets me on. Lately it’s been a total lottery as to whether the app opens and shows that you have an active ticket. This morning was the same, felt like a right dick holding the bus up whilst I closed and reopened the app about four times before it worked. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Minertaur Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 People who board the bus but aren't ready to pay. This is a common annoyance of mine at supermarkets but it drives me mad on a bus. Cold day and you're waiting on some eejit trying to find their wallet to pay £2.50. They probably get the bus at least weekly so know exactly how much it costs but lack the common decency to be ready to pay. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take a screenshot and just bring up the picture when you get on. I do this with Ticketmaster stuff as I'm always scared the app wont work. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a live app, so the screen constantly changes to avoid people from taking a screenshot. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
