Okay people.. simple simple simple rule that you should be able to understand.
you dont actually have to wait for the bus to be at a full stop with the doors open before you begin your exit procedure.
Yes I understand, people carrying stuff, accompanied by kids, less mobile people, you perhaps all need to wait. But I am talking about you. the 18 year old with nothing in her hands. WHY WHY WHY do you wait every single day for the bus to stop and open its doors before getting up? Its transit, not a freakin school bus... what the hell is your problem? You and every single other person do realize that its because of people like you we will never actually have rapid transit in this city right? Oh yeah I see you waiting 10 feet back from the bus stop, waiting for the bus to come to a full stop and open its doors before you get on.
Were you all traumatized by the same bus driver growing up? Did he beat you if you moved when the bus was moving? If so.. get some help.. and stay the frick off my bus until you do. I timed you guys this morning. You know how much longer you made my commute? 4 minutes, 13 seconds. All because you are to ignorant to be courteous enough to enter and exit the bus in a timely manner.

Crazy arse financial woes
So apparently its in the worlds best interest to give major banks/credit agencies in the USA 700 Billion dollars. Not just the USA, but the entire freakin world. All supposedly caused by the sub prime mortgage crap that morons pulled.
Check this.
$700 billion is what has been spent in the middle east wars the last little while
$700 billion would be like buying 2 Million $350,000 homes.
Know how many homes had default mortgages in 2007? 1.3 million.
Why did many of the mortgages default? The real answer? Because banks refused to renew mortgages for houses that were purchasd at too high of a value. No new financing meant the people would have had to come up with several hundred thousand overnight.
So... who gave these loans for houses at too high of a value... oh thats right.. the banks.
Why are the investors in these banks not on the hooks? The banks that for several years have been reporting supposed profit in the 10s of and 100s of billions of dollars per year. Profit that has simply be given back to the shareholders. Seems to me that profit was given out improperly, perhaps the shareholders need to have that money clawed back?
And so what do we end up with in the end? The American government being one of the dominant players in the financial market. How crazy is that? The most "capitalistic" country in the world, being dominated by its own government in the financial industry. And who owns all the debt of the US government? That would be for the most part the Chinese.
Seems to me that perhaps, the communists won the cold war, instead of the other way around.

end of times
So some people are freaking out and even going to such lengths as to SUE to stop the end of the world from happening this coming Wednesday. Dont know what I am talking about? Dont really care,...just how lazy and unaware of your world are you? sheesh
well the good thing is that this will take place in Europe and with any luck we will either all be sleeping or up and watching some really bad late late late night/early morning TV and the end will come without us knowing it anyway.
So what if it did not come quickly, say we were told about it and that it would take 6 weeks to happen and that there was nothing we could do to stop it. What would you do? Continue on with life? Keep going to work? Finally finish that puzzle of 99 red balloons? Grab a gun and just start randomly shooting up the place for sheer fun? Would you go to sleep? Or just keep drinking red bull until your stolen stash runs out? Hell most people would die of starvation long before 6 weeks was up so why not just off yourself right as soon as you hear about it and save some food for me?
Me.. what will I do? Maybe just freakin maybe find that damn pair of pants finally.

seats on the bus
Why cant you people just get up and give your seat on the bus to the person who actually needs it? What the hell is wrong with you people. Hell some days I can barely walk and yet I almost always the first to offer my seat up to a person who should be sitting in priority seating, but can get no seat. Seriously people do you not understand what priority seating is all about? Yes I am talking to you, you damn lazy arse teanagers and to you to miss I got a seat and I aint movin for nuthin even though I am 30 years olds and in good shape. You know what the kids I can almost understand.. they are kids... but you? come on lady are you kidding me? What gives you the right to make them stand. Hell would you at least move for someone in a wheelchair or would you make them sit in the unsecure centre isle?
They should put remote tazers in the seats so the bus driver can just zap your ignorant arses into moving. Learn some common decency you freakin jerks.

my pants
Why is it that almost everytime I go into any of the non pants specific stores they are almost always sold out of my size? ( walmart, zellers, etc.. )
Its crazy, its been this way for a number of years you would think that stores would be smart enough to notice the one size routinely selling out faster then every other size and actually do something about it, like I dont know, order more stock perhaps?
Am I really that common of a pants size or is there some sort of ANTI-DEAN pants secret society that goes around buying up all the pants that would fit me? Everything, jeans, dress pants, pjs and even freakin sweat pants for christ sake!... ADPSS leave me alone!

Green Party to sue to be on TV
Are you FREAKIN kidding me?
From the winnipeg sun-
Green party threatens to sue for TV debate spot
http://www.winnipegsun.com/News/World/2008/09/03/6649826.html
Okay guys seriously, we get that you are desperate to get eli-may onto the publically televised debates. But to threaten to sue and even worse say its "For the sake of democracy she has to be included"? You have got to be out of touch with reality if you think forcing your ideas down the throats of Canadians has anything at all to do with democracy. This stunt will backfire for you. Sure the diehard Greenies already voting for you regardless of your actual platform will be more convinced and empowered to vote for you, but this little stunt will drive away all your soft votes.
Instead of little games like this, how about you spend some time tweaking your platform and coming up with a plan to actually win an election somewhere? Is that a concept that even reaches you at all?
I am all for being green, I wholeheartdly support good environmental intiatives but I will NOT accept living in a dictatorship to achieve those initiatives.

People who hate the police
Dont get me wrong. I hate the police when they do dumbass things just as much as the next guy. More so maybe I dont know, dont care either.
But why o why are there some people who hate the police who do dumbass things that are technically legal, but they do them just to piss the cops off? It was bad enough before the internet when people did this, now these loosers feel "protected" by the internet and feel they can spew whatever crap they want about police. Challenge the police all the time and then wonder why it is that the police dont feel a pressing need to jump at the chance to help them.
Seriously All you people you reAlly need to get a freAkin life. MAybe A reAl job would be a good thing too. Grow up, get over yourself And leArn to live with the rest of society.
