Why is it on tubes in rush hour its always vinegary looking women barking this crass and some would say obvious command in a drearily metallic voice? I'd like to think men do it also or maybe its just the same woman everytime?

Sometimes
it's a man in a mac and club tie with tortoise shell glasses.
Oh its you is it?
I still think its a crying shame they took the old tubes out of commission - the ones with wooden floors and hanging straps, but I would say what wouldn't I?
modern life is rubbish
Once it was a small Asain lady
*Asian
stupid keyboard.
HATE CRIME HATE CRIME HATE CRIME
I'm telling Nik Cohn youre denying the holocaust.
'Nick Cohen'
the seismically ugly Guardian columnist who looks like Donald Fagin after a night in the cells with only a blunt instrument to sleep on
??
yep it does seem to be the women
on my train people just love to stand by the doors and not move down, if you need to say it it's best to pick out one individual and say to them rather than just generally to the crowd.
flowery dress, reddish-brown hair?
I think it's the same woman
crass and obvious?
then why don't people move down the fucking carriage until told?
Don't be so crass
Great cover and wonderful inlay
I'm referring to Modern Life is Rubbish obv.
Cos there's no room
AND THERE'S NO NEED TO BE RUDE
there is room though!
and the ones being rude are the people not moving down the carriage
next you'll be saying morons who stand on the left of the escalator shouldn't be beaten to death
sometimes people
might be getting off a stop or two later and don't want to move down as it will make it difficult to get off
^ This
you and your sense!
Yes you tell her Bob
I once got off a tube when someone screamed this command in my face in a 'Come to Daddy' video way. Obviously it was more important for them to their unfullfilling job in sub Primark regulation admin clobber.
Prole
you are getting more and more tory by the day. REWIND!
Hey you I voted Ken and almost came to blows with an old friend who admitted to voting 'Bo Jo'
so let's hope not. Can't imagine anything worse than being called a Tory!
My bus driver does this...
and if there is more than 4 people standing he won't drive on until some people are 'elected' to get off the bus.
heh
was on the tube the other day when this happened... it it kicked off a full on jesus rant.
a bloke asked if everyone could move down, and one man refused to move stating there was no room. then it suddenly turned into a "i used to be a villain but now i've got jesus. however, if i didn't have jesus, i'd stab you in the face for not moving down the tube" and so on for about 15 minutes. fun.
What about when older (not old) women
get on and ask for a seat. Like, they're about 50 and are perfectly capable of standing. I'm shattered and half asleep and I've got to give up my seat 'cos you smoke too much and look 10 year older than your age?
GET BENT YOU OLD HAGS.
They should feature pictures of this in London Lite
instead of pictures of Peaches Geldolf - seeing cramped londoners on a tube pretending the mad angry man isn't there would really denote 'what went on in London last night' than someone walking from a Paddingtons acoustic show at Madame Jo Jo's
Now, where was I?
I'm wondering whether this is the same feller
who told my mate he 'used to fight boxers and they were so scared they ran away' when my mate refused him a cigarette.
LOLd
my mouse off the desk
Anyone see The Others playing a gig on the Underground lately?
I think it was my mate Chris
who said he once jumped over the moon on his bmx. And fought some crocodiles that were blocking his drive.
