To the 185 Link Riders… What changes so much during your day that you feel the need to push people to get on the bus heading home to Sackville? In the mornings at the Sackville terminal you’re all so kind enough to line up single file and get on the bus in that fashion until it’s full, then you wait for the next. Why can’t we do that on Barrington? I’ve beent he first att he stop waiting for the bus to head home after work and then a slew of people come out of nowhere and push past me to get on first! C’mon people… wait your turn!

It’s simple: most people are in more of a hurry to get home than to get to work 😉
Stressful day probably makes people like that, my son had to stop taking the #84 home from high school because a man tried to choke him because my son dropped his binder on the mans foot by mistake and another time someone pushed my son into a man and that man jumped on my sons feet.
You can take the people out of Sackville, but not Sackville out of people…
Ok, Guyute *actually* made me LOL with that one.
There, I said it.
M your son should hoof them jerks in the nuts.
M – your son is a pussy
😉 I just HAD to…
And you are an idiot.
O.K…. This seriously pisses me off:
Why the fuck do the people who take the link from Sackville NEED TO STAND IN LINE?!?! Even when it is -20 outside, you guys are out there freezing your balls off, and the people who are not completely retarded are forced to wait with you… otherwise they’d be waiting until 9:30 for a bus!!! Why can’t you wait inside… I mean especially when it is that cold?!?!??!
……. sheeple.
Fuck I hat that word sheeple. So G-D condescending.
okay Fever, how would you describe it?
It’s called being polite, and that’s what people do when they’re polite. When did politeness become so detestable? You’re not the only free thinker in all of Halifax. For all you know half of them have Doctorates in multiple fields and they’ll do more to advance human society than you will, playing WoW and smoking pot. Oh, but they’re sheep because they line up. Go live off the grid, and rid us of that arrogant attitude.
i refuse to let people jump in front of me on a bus. i wait in line like everyone else. wanna jump in front of me? well i’m going to step on your heels and burp loudly with my garlic breath up close to you.
I’ll butt in front of anyone that leaves 2 feet of space between them and the person in front of them, those people need to learn to pay attention. And they’re probably not thrilled about having to go back to Sackville – it’s the only place I’ve ever been threatened or had cr*p thrown at me, a lot of the people are incredibly narrow-minded and self-righteous jerks, and we don’t even have a freakin’ bookstore or music store (unless you count Walmart, the pawn shop or library). The only good thing about the place is you can walk on the road all you want after 10pm because there’s nothing open and pretty much nobody on the road.
