Ugh. No offense intended against anyone who has a family of kids, but gosh, parents, learn to control your kids. Being forced to endure a toddler screaming at the top of his or her powerful lungs is more than I can be expected to endure. I gave up a plea for silence or the silence required to be able to concentrate on what I was reading. Also, a big shout out to the woman who oh so kindly crumpled my photocopied article under her sneaker. Thanks so much. You will live forever in my heart. That was the last dollar I had to my name to pay for that article. The librarian was so kind to me. I wish others would adapt her method of graciousness for themselves. I felt sorry for the parent—the receiver of a few glances from the bus patrons. He probably did all he could. Still, it was noisy. —Anonymous

  1. I am so jazzed for “Daniel Abraham’s Big Bus Adventure 2 – Electric Boogaloo” His climactic passive aggressive battle with a pod of Stroller Moms supposedly puts the Helm’s Deep sequence from LOTR to shame.

  2. I have 2 kids, what is your point. Yes they can get noisy sometimes, and also yes, they can be little hellians. But to be honest, they are tame compared to some adults, or supposed to be adults I see once in a while on the buses. You have no idea how rambunctious some kids can get and how hard it is to control them, anywhere.
    My 2 boys are 3 and 5, and even the death stare they sometimes get from me, will very seldom slow them down.Oh I know, you will say that I am a lousy parent, wrong. If you have all the answers and smarts, how come most of you don’t have kids, or write books. So that we lousy parents can treat you like Gods. Answer is that you would be no different than the rest of us poor bastards. And no, I am not a female.

  3. Wow. The “death stare.”

    I’m not even your kid, but I’m certainly shaking in my boots!

    I can only imagine the effect your “death stare” has on your kids.

    Does your ‘death stare’ have lasers and shit?

  4. In order for the death stare to actually work, you need to kill one of those little brats, I suggest the younger one as you probably aren’t as attached to him. Then when the surviving one sees that stare, he’ll stop whatever he’s doing, post haste!

  5. GET STUFFED, do yourself a favor friend, don’t bother posting here anymore. these fools think that you are me. they are seeing ghosts in everyone that posts here now,thinking that it’s me. but you know that i’m not you.anyway, be forewarned. they like digging at you and trying to make you feel like shit.

  6. I love that Gary is talking through the alternate to his alternate personality, to *his fourth* personality- er, fifth, after PegPigg.

    Book a rubber room!

  7. book a fucking rubber room for yourself asshole. sorry to burst your fucking bubble, but this one is not me. they have kids at home, i don’t. or do you actually know how to read. i reinforce what i said to him, keep your snaity and don’t bother writing again. the hassle you get, will be your downfall.
    but of course, i could be a lot of these new people i see here, but am not. go fucking crazy trying to figure out which is me and which is not.while i and others sit back and laugh at your stupid fucking antics. everyone that is not me, don’t reply to this post, that’ll really have them scratching their poor fucked up heads.
    see how this is working, you fools. you think i am everyone and everywhere. it is to laugh. and i will still be laughing as you are going to bed, wondering if the next new person that writes here is me or not.hey meaty, are you me too, or how about mm, or even the bitcher. this is gonna get better everyday.

  8. The problem is that people today do not discipline their children correctly at the first sign of trouble. They allow the child to act inappropriately until they can’t stand it anymore and then when they have had enough they try the” one, two, three” tactic which does not work and never will. A good smack on the arse ( it’s got to smart a bit), send them to their room, then when they stop crying, discuss on their level of understanding why they were diciplined and what is expected of them. Then after that a hug and a kiss, and an I love you. Worked for our parents (depending on how old you are), grandparents, great grandparents etc.

  9. i’m always surprised at undisciplined adults, their behaviour in public is usually as atrocious as their child’s. i try not to imagine what it’s like inside their homes

  10. It’s a bus, which is public transport, which means it hauls around members of the public, some members of the public should not be permitted to mix with us humans.

  11. It’s difficult for a parent to discipline a child in public particularly public transit. Where do you send the kid to time-out? You can’t speak sharply or somebody will call child services. The only thing one can do is try to keep the child entertained and command their attention. As Mr. Pewtey pointed out, it is PUBLIC transport and toddlers are part of the public.

  12. I see what you mean by these people are crazy.Imagine that, me being someone else, ha ha. People are funny about some things and I guess you are probably right about a lot of other stuff you said as well.
    Okay friend, I won’t bother putting anything else up. I will continue to read though.This seems to be a game to you,is it? If so, I will watch and see what becomes of their insanity, as they try to figure out who you are. Should be interesting to read over next few days or weeks.
    Well, gotta go, kids are getting up, and we are supposed to go to Lawencetown Beach today. Hope to talk sometime later. Do you mind if I send you an e-mail at that adress that you gave out on one of the other bitches? Maybe between the two of us, we can really get them going, what do you think?

  13. GET STUFFED and her death stare and her two shitty kids can all go fuck themselves.

  14. —–
    you think everyone is me
    —–

    No, I don’t.
    I know which ones you are. All I have to do is look for comma raping, lack of spellcheck/punctuation, and words like “snaity”.

    —–
    keep your snaity
    —–

    ?

    As to my “downfall”, go take a flying fuck at a rolling donut. You’re an impotent old coot. You matter as much to me as OldHandjob did. Just another crazy troll who needs to create an imaginary world to justify his existance.

    —–
    go for a WALK
    —–

    Because I can’t WALK, right Gary?
    Like I said, if I was black you would reduce it to that.
    I look forward to you trying to make me react by calling me a cripple. It’s the kind of thing I expect from people like you.
    Oh! I’m about you go CHEW MY FOOD.
    🙂

    So, you’re not hurting my feelings at all.
    It’s cute as the dickens that you think you’re so important to everyone that we’re spending time trying in vain to figure out that you’re Lifesucks, PegPigg, George Peters, etc. you’re NOT MoMan/MrMeaty or anyone else. Those people type in complete sentences and have at least a passing acquaintance with a toothbrush and the English language.

    And please DO keep conspiring with yourself on the thread with “Doug, Bobby, and Timmy”. Just like Red and Sherry, they are creations of yours to defuse and take heat off the fact you have no friends here.

    However, if OldHandjob showed up again and you claimed to be him, I would not have trouble believing that. Both you fuckers are crazy! Lols

    Looking forward to the next unfulfilled threat of you going away, I remain,

  15. “a passing acquaintance with a toothbrush”, lofl. George Peters, or whoever you are, you sound like a real winner. Now that you sold your piece of shit car for 22 grand, you can take a much needed trip to the dentist instead of wasting it on smokes and hookers.

  16. you don’t know me douchebag, so you too, can go fuck yourself. what are you, another jealous asshole that does nothing with their lives. my old piece of shit car, is a million times better than most of the crap that is on the road today. and yeah, 22 grand is fuck all. never even made it to the auction floor.
    they had me down for august, not july. anyway, you should be so lucky to have a piece of vehicle history. and the crack about my smoking is none of your fucking business either. i suspect that this is another regular posting under anorther phony name. and i believe i know who the little piglet is.
