I hate bus drivers. All of them. There aren't any nice ones. They're all pricks. Every last one. They may be nice people at home but behind the wheel they turn into mini-fascists who think the plexiglass screen will actually stop me from getting to them. I'm sure you've all experienced the following at some point: 1) The bus goes dangerously fast. Pensioners fall over. You fear for your life. 2) The bus crawls along - he's obviously early and doesn't want to drive too fast. 3) The bus parks up at a stop and the driver fucks off to the newsagents for 10 mins. 4) The bus parks up at a stop and the driver reads his paper for 10 mins. Don't get me worng, have your break AT THE FUCKING TERMINUS - NOT DURING MY JOURNEY! 5) The bus driver is an egotistical prick who thinks he's better than you. I'm a teacher you idiot - i finished university and have a degree. I wear a suit for work. I get paid 3 times what you get. I pay your wages. If it wasn't for me you'd just be an unemployed bum who can drive badly. Your company exists to serve meeeee!!!! *ahem* I have a car but choose to commute to work. I am a member of Greenpeace after all. 6) The driver fails to notice the cannabis/crack pipe/arms dealer on the bus but unerringly homes in on your packet of crisps and informs you that you can't eat on the bus. I smile at him and tell him to call the police to arrest those in possession of illegal narcotics upstairs first. He goes away. 7) You're on an empty bus. Scary bag lady gets on and sits next to you. And starts a conversation. Of every seat on the bus, why here?! 8) The slinky goth girl/boi never sits next to you. Even if it means standing. Or maybe that's just me. :( 9) Prams get on and expect preferential treatment. You shat the little fucker into the world you selfish cow, now i have to stand up to make room? 10) People who take up the room of ten men. Then look at you funny when you perch on the edge of the seat muttering. 11) What is it with commuters and not washing anyway? SOme of them smell like rotten meat... |

When i say greenpeace i mean i pay my membership and do my bit. I don't climb oil rigs or kneecap horses on fox hunts; i just recycle my shit, donate a little money and get the bus when i don't need to drive. I don't preach. And i don't judge. At least not in regards to this. But seriously, i really do have an intense dislike for bus drivers. One was arsey with a group of boggans the other day when he admittedly really didn't need to be. It was really hard to feel bad for him when they started throwing stones at him. Then the cops showed up so i got to see a bus driver get stoned and boggans get arrested. Yayness. And yes, my day at work was jinxed from the start by a rough bus journey. I had a 60+ woman ask me if i had any weed today. |

greenpeace leave me alone for good reasons... tasmania is crawling with the feral bastards.. if you go into the city you cant walk down a street without them askign you for money of to help protest or they try and give you a god damn greenpeace newspaper... i swear we have more green's than rats here... which its kinda of a problem seeing as one of tasmania's forms of income is from logging. many years ago they were goign to build another dam here but the green's protested to much and the dam wasnt build... yeah thats AWSOME because since then power has cost a great deal more... now for the funny part most of the fucking green's here arnt even born in tasmania.. they all mainly come from the mainland... most tasmanians honestly dont care our forests are getting logged... so why the fuck do these feral hippys get a say in what happens here? well thats my rant.. its been awhile since i have ranted and i honestly do hate greenpeace with a firey passion. |

Most logging projects replant nowadays anyway. And hydro-electric power is cheap and 100% clean. I don't see what the issue is. Don't get me worng, conservation has it's place but people do need to live and all. But seriously, bus drivers. Bastards eh? |

dont mean to upset you but hydro is not 100% clean, it has t be manufactured and installed, ok once installed its better, but even then the mechanicl comonents require lubrication and maintanence, i agree it's heaps better though, there is also the problem that it does change the environment slightly as well, the flow is diverted, the housing is obtrusive, etc, i would personally prefer to see people install small scale systems in their houses such as wind and thermal generators, and even small scale waste water hydro generators, and solar, cutting back on power consumption as well means that we could sustain further energy needs without having to increase any existing plants as well, and in the end, creating no new plants and running the ones we have far more efficiently is a better idea. By the tine they need replacing we may have found something even better such as cold fusion, or quantum generation, dont discount the possibilities, it was only 100 years ago that people didnt believe we needed more than a horse and a fireplace. |
