To the sketch old man on the 20 Herring Cove who pepper sprayed the bus. Thanks so fucking much, because I have nothing better to do on my way home then end up puking on the side of the road. Fuck you, you’re the reason I don’t like to bus it at night. —My Nose Hurts

ooohhhhh… I’d be piiiiiisssseeed. Never been pepper sprayed, never want to be. Did the guy get away? The driver should have called the cops or something. This sucks because as much as you’d want to run the guy down and stomp his fucking head in, he’s got pepper spray.. fuckin cowards.
I have an interesting (yet somewhat lengthy) story about bear spray, which I might save until the summit. 😛
Dennis – ‘I’m 37. I’m not old’.
Now I’m intriqued. Forget the bear spray; I want to know exactly how many words constitutes “lengthy” in the Brendoniverse. >; )

Pepper spray does have it’s positive uses:

Hoo, Hoo, Hoo
Shenanigans until I see a story in cbc, the herald, hell even the Metro.
Well I can’t just call you “man”.
Well you could say “Dennis”.
I didn’t know you were called Dennis.
Well you didn’t bother to find out did you?
Did he work for Feed Nova Scotia?

I might drop by tomorrow as well.
I pepper sprayed myself once.
It’s the absolute worst thing…
I hope the driver did something??
“too much water”
“naw it ain’t… takes 15 minutes. Been pepper sprayed 9 times… takes 15 minutes. you got 14 to go”
the 20, i would have never guessed.
lol….funny. OB, you subjected yourself to that service. You get what you paid for.
OC spray is nasty shit. It’ll burn for hours, is not soluable in water so no amount of rinsing will work, and the more you rub, the more it works itself into your skin/eyes, prolonging the affect. In Canada, OC (pepper) spray is considered a prohibited weapon meaning only law enforcement officers may legally carry or possess it. Dog/bear spray is legal to be carried by anyone but it is against the law if it’s use causes a risk of imminent death or serious bodily harm to another person, or harming the environment and carries a pretty hefty fine and jail time. If this post is legit, Metro Transit should have the guy on camera and he should be reported to police.
Brought to us, no doubt, by the good folks at Dow who gave us napalm…
Well, I’m just glad they invented napalm first because, really, would this scene have been nearly as awesome:

had it been about pepper spray?
I think not.
ah xeno, there is nothing as nice as fresh napalm in the morning. ask any nam vet. the loverly smell of burning trees and sometimes the bodies of the cong, in their little spider holes. ah yes, give me a napalm 4th of july any day. and even good on the occupiers.
“Mmmmmm…incapacitating…”
OP, stop trying to hump people’s legs and you wont get pepper sprayed.
