Waiting for the Shinkansen...

I can`t stand rudness or ignorance anywhere

Drives me fucking mad, dozens and dozens of examples I can give but just the one

Some nob, but big nob, 6-3 19 stone ish, skinhead, track suit, bit of a thug really, parks his car smack bang in the middle of a petrol station forecourt. Wound me up already!! While filling up my scooter I just watch him walk in and to the counter. I follow him in and just jeep watching him. He realises that I have been watching him and gives me a funny look, so I just glare back at him. Then he starts

What the F@@@ you looking at?

So I just glare back at him

What`s the problem???

I was just wondering if you considered the other 10 people in, and trying to get in to the petrol station when you just left your car in the middle of the forecourt?

What the F@@@ has it got to do with you where I park?

Perhaps a little more consideration wouldn`t go amiss!

I should punch your F@@@ing lights out you mouthy C@@T!!!

So I took my crash helmet off and said nothing just glared back at him as oif to say, well go on here`s your chance big boy!!

He looked at me turned around and paid for his stuff and bid a hasty retreat.

Sure I was a little bit worried if he had tried to hit me, but crash helmets can do some damage!!!! and I was up for a good punch up as well, shitty day and all that





My dad gave me a great example a few years ago, he used to be in the building trade and one day by accident ran some thugs foot over in a dumper truck. This gut went mental, more for image than actual pain. Threating to kill my dad etc, so my dad calmy whispered in his ear once he calmed down enough...

You can kick the shit out of me, but you had better kill me......otherwise you had better be looking over your shoulder for the rest of your life as you will never know where something may hit you over the head, or a car mount the pavement, get my drift.

To which the thug looked at him, said, "be more careful next time" and walked off!!!

:clap:

 

I keep waiting for someone to grope me, as that's all you hear about here. 8 years, and not so much as a simple package check.

 

I'm so paranoid about getting accused of chikan in the morning rush hour. It's just so damn packed.

 

I have probably told you about my train happening where some tosser gave me an insult, because of my size. But well, I have also experienced while I was on a bus with my mother (who has a hard time every now walking, because of osteoarthritis in her knees). And then I sat next to her in the bus, and on both sides there was a sign , like the german one . About the seats were only to people who had either trouble walking or standing or disabled people (take your pick). And there were elderly women, and they looked at my mom , like she was an "athlete who got an easy seat". And one of them commented that, I can´t remember what my mother said, but the old bitch just looked at my mum. And went out of the bus, but from that moment. I have sat in that seat (not if there was another seat free but sometimes I do sit in that seat) , since who the fuck knows. If you or I have trouble walking whether you are young or old. But yes, of course I will always move my ass. and be very polite and say to the person, she or he is allowed to sit there. If he or she has trouble standing.
And they aren´t rude or anythng like that.

 

I swear my wife really thinks I'm going to be falsely accused. I guess my simple, "foreigners don't grope, we rape" theory won't take me far.

 

LMFAO, thats awesome.Have you ever witnessed any groping going on?

 

Only one I "witnessed" was on the Inokashira-line which I lived on (#2 on this list of chikan lines). It was an elbows-to-balls packed train in the morning. You could've heard a pin drop, and then you hear a young girl say, "Please Stop it!!!" Hehe.

An old colleague of mine I still talk to has a classic story of a guy starching her skirt.

 

Well I had two bad experiances with public transportation in the last few weeks.

The latest was yesterday when I was waiting for a bus that arives once an hour . The bus stopped at the station and people were getting on it, it wasn't full or even close to it, and then when I came to get on the bus the driver closed the door and looked at me with a mix of pissed off and satisfied look.


The other bad incident was when I got on a bus for a weekend resort. The bus was almost full when an old man came on the bus and asked a girl of about my age (lets say late teens) if she can move her beg so he can sit , now there was no more sit on the bus and its a 4 hour drive but she just looked at him and ignored him (ofcourse I got up and let him sit insted of me). The worst part was that when I gave my sit to him she just looked at me like I am some sort of wierdo cause I gave my sit up ( now I was almost sure that she is a devil child :icon_bigg)

 

Which country was this in?

 

In my country, there's a lot of packed buses and really sub-standard public transportation, especially in my city. There is a lot of contact involved in many bus rides. The drivers overcrowd the vehicles a lot more since public transportation was privatised, and they get paid by quota. It's almost too packed to breathe sometimes.

And about not giving up your seat... I thought this was something that happened in the third world only.
I have no idea why younger people this day keep sitting on the special reserve seats or not giving their seats up. What the fuck is up with that? Man, I wish I were a bit taller or carried a walking cane of sorts, just to smack them over the head.


Also...

I love this metaphor to death.
