Maybe separate restrooms and drinking fountains, too huh? ^^^ Do us all a favor – never reproduce. T.R.I.C., you can P.U.A.R.
Or better yet, OP, make the fatties WALK! Everywhere they go! Because fatties are lazy, you know, and some walking’ll do some good for those two seat-takin two tonne tubbies!
Then once their girth is acceptable to the public at large [heh] they can come back on the bus and only take up one seat.
PROBLEM SOLV’D!
*eyeroll*
Fuck off, OP.
Stupidity and bitchers
I hate those bitchers that exude stupidity within the bitch forums. There should be a special forum for stupid bitchers. — T.R.I.C. OFF
OP, you thought that up whilst taking your own bus…. didn’t you?

Could it be that the seats are too small ?
After all some fucking moron somewhere decided to make a standard size seat based on IMO the average 14 year old !
WHich just doesn’t fucking work in this country. Might be great for those 5’6″ & under but if your taller than that, you are out of luck, toss on a sweater, & a winter jacket…even tighter squeeze !
I wonder if the op has any fatties in their family and how they would react to them? maybe he/she has an aunt/uncle somewhere just dying to be smooched by him oh and yes is overweight.
Fatty Bus, Skinny Bus, Lefty Bus, Ginger Bus, White Bus, Black Bus, Yellow Bus, Red Bus…
OB, shouldn’t your signoff be ICRT?
Ignorant Cocksucking Redneck TROLL
I’ll admit it — at this current point in time, I ain’t teeny tiny. I’ve gained 30 pounds this past year, I’ll go as far as to admit that (and yes, I’m working on losing it — weight watchers for me for the past month — 11 pounds and counting GONE), but I tend to fit in the seats just fine. That’s because i put all my weight on in front, and not the side. I’m not wide at all.
On the flip side, I’ve seen some leaner ladies on the bus who had wide hips and had issues with the seats because they’re wider. And some ladies I know with large boobs (I’m talking H-cup here) take up a little more space than one seat — it’s not their ass that’s sitting on two seats, it’s their arms that push over because their boobs push them out.
Also: more: have you noticed the wider seating at the hospitals and blood collection place on bayers rd? And talk about teeny tiny seating — airplane seats SUCK. I’m a shorty and even I feel crammed in on those things. I don’t know how my dad, who’s 6’2 or some of my good friends who are over 6 feet stand sitting on planes for so long!
“Little bus seats, little bus seats,
and they’re all made out of ticky-tacky.
Little bus seats, little bus seats,
and they all look just the same….
There’s a green one and a pink one,
and a blue one and a yellow one,
and they’re all made out of ticky-tacky
and they all look just the same.”
it’s not so much the width pk, it’s the length. when the boy flew home (6′ 4″) the guy next to him was even taller. if the person in front decides to recline…well, it’s not pretty^^
I hate to go off topic here, but I have to:
Hugo: before you and anyone else abuse “redneck” any further. you should know that it’s: “most likely from mule farmers’ outdoors labor in the sun, wearing a shirt and straw hat, with the neck exposed.”Don Cherry even said it’s from immigrants who came to the
Americas, and worked the farms, and construction projects, building the country. They worked in the sun until their necks turned red. That’s where “redneck” comes
from. I hate it when people abuse that term, and use it for other meanings.

fuck you too asshole, what the fuck you got against anyone overweight? maybe your little skinny anorexic ass should have some meat on it? i wish that you meet a real big person on the street, and mouth off to them like you are doing on a no name bitch board. would lov to see your winey little ass after they pounded you into the ground. and no, i am not fat, or even slightly over weight. but i know people who have a poundage problem, and they are one fuck of a lt nicer than some of the skinny skanks and douchebags that inhabit this fucking city and country. so, to sum it all up, in words you can understand, get fucked.
That’s OUR word, and it’s time to take it back. >; )
Socially, there’s nothing wrong with carrying a little extra weight. It may be bad for your health, but thats your problem — not mine.
I would like to point out, however, that if you can’t seem to fit comfortably in a standard bus seat, chair in a movie theatre, or standard airplane seat… then honey, you have a problem. And THAT’s when it begins to affect the people around you.
There is nothing more uncomfortable than sitting beside someone who is spilling out of their seat… both physically and emtionally. I feel sorry that you’ve gotten so big, you can’t comfortably enjoy a night at the movies or a bus ride home. That’s when its time to do something about it.
iquit, Redneck, I couldn’t be bothered to think of another “R” word.
Do you happen to hate todays use of word “gay”? The English language is fluid and changes constantly. New words are made up and others change their meaning.
eg. boot, mouse, spam, troll.
Face it iquit, the term Redneck is not complementary, and I don’t think that it ever was.
On a side note – words changing their meaning – DAWG, I always thought it ment Dumb Ass Wanker Git
I want to say I’m one of those ‘fatties’ on the bus (and as a 6′ tall solidly built girl who knows my way around a punching bag) I don’t think anyones gonna call me that to my face. However, I’d like to point out that I NEVER once have seen one person fit into just one seat on those buses. Even thin tiny guys or gals usually have their thighs over their seat perimeters…and that doesn’t even take into account the fact that by the time you reach your shoulders, you’re twice as wide. Simply put…more seats on public transit = more people they can transport = more money in the city’s pocket. Get over it, stand, or better yet, stay off the bus altogether and walk. I can’t stand all the passive-aggressive comments about fat people. Mind your business or say it to my face.
jeal2004, that’s about sums up what i said too. have a good one, and fuck those that can’t see past their own little fucking beaks. nough said.
PK , yeah airplanes are f’in crazy.
I was on one last year, a little 3 year old girl couldn’t walk from the window to the aisle, without turning sideways & squeezing out !
this was no fat child, I would label her as a ‘grasshopper’ mostly legs & arms & quite petite…trying to fold your legs in there just wouldn’t happen for me at 6’1″
about 250 lbs now ! Even in the front row, the window seat had the curve of the fusilage cut into your foot room , so your legs were rotated toward the seat next to you ! I understand why so many people die in plane crashes…You can’t get the fuck out, even if you survive the crash !
I’d like to see OP run into Natalia Ragozina on the bus. She’s 5’11’ and a half and she weighs 172 lbs

I think the word “fattie” should be banned as it is insulting to a lot of people
Lol Kim, can you imagine her kids ever getting lippy?
Skinny v – it’s better to be overweight than underweight.
Imagine having pneumonia, being 10 lbs underweight you have no bodily reserves, 10 lbs over and there’s the necessary energy to help fight the illness.
I’m not obese by any stretch of the imagination, I do not fit in a bus, airpane or most theator seats, and there is nothing I can do about it.
You had me at H-cup…
it really shouldn’t have taken me as long as it did to figure out where I’d heard jonno’s song before…
if bra cup –> teacup…
then h-cup –> http://www.civin.org/wp/wp-content/uploads…
yeah its called a dump truck….
Bro Tim in the spirit of your comment,
I think skinny should be banned…its insulting to a lot of people ~;)
Imagine her husband getting lippy!
I was on the bus one day, and I noticed a young woman standing near the front–she was quite a big woman. At first glance, you would think her vastly overweight–she was so broad–but looking a little closer, you could see she was buff (in fact, she had her gym bag with her). I cannot imagine how big she would be if she didn’t work out. But, buff or not, she wasn’t going to fit in seat comfortably. And, had she not been wearing shorts, her lack of fat would not have been obvious.
I am not talking about people that weigh like 200 pounds I can deal with that. What I am talking about is people that are like 400 pounds.
It doesn’t matter Tric, the point is we come in all sizes. The standard bus seat barely accommodates the average person. Had you been fair and kind, you would have noticed this. So, it becomes obvious that you are not ranting about seat space but hating on big people.
Do you ever think about what you’re saying? You are suggesting fat people not be out and about–being active–even if it is just to walk to the bus and walk around their destination, because YOU find the sight of their bulk offensive. You would have them stay home–in shame, hidden from your sight. And, it is not about health care cost, because if it was, you would glad to see them out of their homes being active.
TRIC, ok, so 400 lbs is too much… what about 399?
that’s ok? ok, what about 398? ….
… 201? 200? …
12?… 11?…
there’s a slippery slope and who is anyone to determine a hard and fast weight when we’re all different heights and shapes…
you’d need to have one of those fucking metal brackets like at the air port where you would step in and make sure you’re a decent size to ‘carry on’…
Which is utterly ridiculous…

…then again, maybe they’d rather push food into their mouths and lead a sedentary existence instead of working towards a healthier weight and lifestyle.
I’d love for TRIC to go up to Paul Wight aka The Big Show and tell him he’s too big to get on the bus.
Hahaha….. TRIC would be opening up a seriously shaken can of Captain Insano if he tried to mess with The Big Show. Although, truth be told, he likely WOULD be a too big to ride our transit system with any amount of comfort. TRIC would only be doing him a favor…
HEY- WAIT A SEC…. what would TBS be doing trying to get on a bus in the first place?
Smart cars are too small for him. He’s trying to lower his carbon footprint? Is transit comfortable for anyone? LOL.
Touche Tim…… touche…. 😉
you won’t see him coming, but I promise you’ll know.
Seats on many of the low floor buses, esp. those with mostly seats facing sideways, are cramped and uncomfortable and seem smaller than seats on the older buses. Even the seats facing to the front are not as good as before. Also, are the newer buses a bit more narrow than the old ones? If so that does not help as far as room for passengers. The most recent articulated low floor buses seem a bit better for seating, but I have not been on them enough to really notice. Similar buses in Ottawa and TO seem a bit more comfortable as far as layout and seating than the ones here.
MAYBE THEY SHOULD WALK THOSE FAT ASSES
