Rude man on bus

[Otta]

Louisa you're quite right, and I did think of mentioning that too, but then I thought someone would probably twist that to make me sound homophobic or something, so I left it out. But yeah, fair point.

[Louisa]

Great to see the Christmas spirit on the forum as per.

I think Jah deserves a break.

Louisa.

I was less offended by your original post than your rather weird "apology" post. You admitted you were in the wrong, but only because you thought it was a bloke writing and therefore worthy of your ridicule of their unpleasant situation.

[Otta]

Loz I think you're just trying to whip up a storm here. I know it's a slow Sunday evening, but let it die man.

Poor Jah.

Wind yer neck in Loz.

Offensive first comment, pathetic, weak 'apology' and now getting all worked up and chucking your toys out the pram because you've been called up on it.

Yep, a real tour-de-force of both cockwombleness and advanced muppetry. Well done you.

[Jah Lush]

*Sigh* .... how long do you want to keep this up? It's boring for everyone else. Let's move on shall we?

[Loz]

Yeah, agreed. It was heading nowhere fast.

Men can be made to feel uncomfortable too.

Got followed down Rye Lane last night by a rough looking boy trying to sell me drugs and asking me not to walk so quickly. I think something at the moment is bringing them out.

The thing that annoyed me most was he had obviously seen me before and made me know that (he described a shoulder bag I carry to work). I felt a little bit uncomfortable then as he has obviously 'clocked me' for some reason - and he may not be alone.

what's one of them then? :)

A fit girl sat beside me on the bus this morning and there were loads of empty seats.

I didn't have the nerve to say anything. But she was clearly stalking me.

[????]

There's a bloke on the 40 in the morning quite often who harranges me with his betting stories

[david_carnell]

Is there a Fight Club style twist to this story Quids? You know, where it turns out that you've been talking out loud on the bus about gambling for months? And then blow up Ladbrokes.

I now have an arrangement whereby this fit girl takes the seat next to me, just before the stop where you get on. she likes my betting stories.

Two Gruiniad feminists, the NUS national womens officer... and the founder of "True Lad" website?

There goes a bloke that lost a bet. Big time.
