Run like you mean it!

I remember when missing your bus was well....a bit shit. The bus stops had those crappy seats that used to fold and spin around, if your arse was too big you was sitting on the metal frame and if it was too small it felt like sitting on concrete. Missing your bus was not an option, you would run infront of it like a madman/woman or hammer on the doors until you bled or the driver gave in and let you aboard.

I have noticed lately that people just don't care enough, I used to run for the bus and have myself a lung problem by the time I found myself a seat. Nowdays people do this HALF ARSED PENGUIN RUN and then when they get to the back end of the bus and noticed that the driver has stopped for them they just stroll onboard and slowly make their way to the nearest piss covered seat. No thank you for the driver, no care in the world.

Or someone does the 'Incontinent shuffle' up to the doors, the doors close (bus drivers are not aware of anything outside of that little glass box they live in) and then the person just shrugs their shoulders and sits down. NO! Cause some damage, kick the front tire at least!

People have it too easy these days, the buses are coming thick and fast so you need never worry you'll be waiting long for the next one. The bus stops have fecking solar lit timetables with that enchanting blue button. If I had had that when I was a small boy I would have loved sitting in the pissing rain waiting 25minutes for the next bus to speed past me.

Come on people, shake a leg! If you want the bus show us you mean it, if you do manage a 'Constipated lobster' run then make sure you follow it through until you get on the bus. Don't make sure the driver has seen you and then slow down. We have somewhere to go you know!!

Move it Move it!
