I can’t believe that this little old lady was forced to stand up on the packed to the roof #1 the other night as these rugby players sat there and didn’t offer up their seats. I had to hold her up as some of these people got off the bus and just pushed by us like they were playing rugby! Try a little kindness! —MissyMeMe

Why didn’t you speak up, OP?
Then again, I tend to be a bit more outspoken than your average bear when it comes to that shit.
But I find if you call people out on their shit in public they tend to be shamed into doing what you want them to do.
o.p., this hapens all the fucking time on any bus. some people are just too lazy or ignorant, to give up a precious fucking seat. i always give up mine, and if some douche is sitting, i will give up their’s too. whether they want to or not.
Yummm, rugby players 🙂
When you say “Yummm” about rugby players Koda, is this what you had in mind?

AHAHAHAHAHA Ivan.
I saw a guy from high school the other day — rugby player. Was really frigging fugly back in the day but HOLYYYY. Hottie++++ now.
Thought I’d just throw that in there, since we’re on the topic of yummy rugby players 😛
Those players pay the same fare as everyone else, and thus can take whatever seat they want. Don’t like it. Tough. LOL…..the stories of public transit just never end.
Nothing surprises me in Nova Scotia.
The Urban Baboon culture is alive and well.
i kind of have to agree with Sebastian on this one. but it’s ashame they didn’t learn how to be courteous towards other peeps. esp da oldahh folk
The driver should’ve said something. The seats at the front are priority seats and I think that needs to be strongly enforced. And I’m not talking about people with strollers who take up three seats: I’m talking about disabled people, injured people, preggos (yah I said it, and I stand by it: preggos should get a fucking seat) and the elderly.
I don’t sit up front EVER because I don’t want to have to give up my seat because it’s hard for me to stand up on the bus (unless I can hug a pole — don’t frigging say it, mr zed, I don’t pole dance PT on MT, so you stfu). I’m short and can’t reach the top pole and I have no balance from a bus accident. I look perfectly able, but it’s torture standing up. Last time I stood up for any length of time I swung backwards around a turn and my injured ACL and MCL swelled up and had to be iced 🙁
So I can understand why it’s important for some people to get seats: give the old lady a fucking seat! Elderly bones are often brittle and a simple bump could break her hip ffs!
common curtesy is not common anymore
LOL @ Ivan

Rugby is a tough and tiring game.
Being old is a tough and tiring existence.
