Nobody wants to sit next to me on the bus

[NoJo]

...and it was full except for the seat next to me, too. I checked my underarms, breath, etc. All fresh as a mountain stream.

What makes you avoid sitting next to someone on the bus?

The crazy look in his eyes as he fondles his pocket knife.

The other person being male usually works for me.

You never know what their testosterone poisoning will make them do.

 

[sophia jane]

For me, it's usually my own insecurities (I hate to bother anyone) that would keep me from sitting next to a stranger.

I avoid sitting next to people that I see checking their underarms and breath ...

Okay, that got a lol.

Since posting this, I realise I was carrying a package (a new, boxed laptop) and I guess maybe people are still jittery about seeing large bags and boxes on the London buses. At least that's the only explanation I can give that leaves my self-esteem intact.

Did you forget to wear pants? That can work against a person when there are no formal introductions.

Vella says it's probably because they saw you slinging poo.

 

[OhMissScarlett]

You're too freakin hot, I'd be afraid I'd have to start making out with you.

 

[Guest]

I wouldn't sit next to you on the bus, Joe, but I would sit on your lap.

(Not the laptop, your lap. Without pants.)

Bouncy, bouncy!

Tell Vella she's a bit of a poo herself, and that I'm tired of going through you everytime I want her to pass the salt.

Thanks.

Personally, I hate sitting next to people that are balancing packages/boxes in their laps. Most times, the package is bigger than their lap and takes over part of "my" part of the seat. That leaves me stuck with part of my ass hanging off the seat. Also, it makes it really akward if the bus is full (standing room only) and the person is getting off the bus before me ... all that shuffling about, trying to make enough room for him/her to extricate themselves and their package without thumping someone on the head.

I know you're just joking around saying that. But I'm going to have a wank now anyway.

Them's fightin' words...meet her out back! (...but don't take the bus.)

Goodie! Don't forget to take a pic.

Yes, that's exactly what the insane person in the seat across the aisle said to me between mouthfuls of turnip.

But I bet someone was willing to sit next to them ...

I could lick her with one hand tied behind my back. In fact I'd quite like that.

Yes, there was a little old lady with green hair and a tuba next to them.

Oh, you'd like it.

 

[NoJo]

In fact, I could probably hold my own against both of you together.

it took me a full five min. to catch my breath after the orgasm i had just thinking about it.

but ofcourse you know you would be completely bound....

 

[scheherazade_79]

Someone extraordinarily large, because you know that you're going to be either pressed against the window or hanging out into the aisle.

Any young man carrying a rucksack.

People who smell or look like it was a long time since they last took a shower.

People who smell strongly of alcohol.

Really rough young women, who are conducting a Jerry Springer style screaming match with their boyfriend over the cellphone.

Old people if they're sitting on the outside - sometimes by the time they've got up to let you back out, you've missed your stop.

People with screaming babies.




And that's pretty much my guidebook when it comes to choosing a seat on public transport. I'm probably fussier than most. I'd sit next to you though, Joe!

 

[Dar~]

I don't like sitting next to strangers. If there was an available seat elsewhere I won't.
