nobody says anything on buses, and thats why people kill themselves!
 

Nobody says anything on buses
And it's not the noise the engine makes
You can watch them all staring nervous
Sit at the back it's the safest place
People are scared to say hello
The flick of the fag the shifting eyes
Stare in amusement then look away
The conscious battle of who to despise
Self-restriction and self paranoia
Self-belief and the silent laugh
The inner conflict between one another
When you're all the same it seems so daft
Nobody says anything on buses
And that's why people kill themselves
Desperation against the world
Can't find a way to express themselves
Society breeds hate and derision
But society is only a mass of people
Striving to be god
At the expense of others
Striving to be better than their next door neighbour
People are scared underneath their silence
People are getting more afraid
They turn to their leaders for help and guidance
And then the system wins again
And will carry on winning till god knows when
Till people start to talk to each other
Everyone just like a brother
Till the morals and fear that divides us all
Is no longer the excuse for the system's rule

Not in SF!

i'm taking a bus to move up to nyc. no one better say anything to me on the bus. i heard it's really annoying to ride a bus long distances because the people are all fucking shitty.

or did you mean that people kill themselves in SF for different reasons then that?

I take the bus every day into work. A girl I dated for a little while rides the same bus. I've made friends with some of the passengers. I talk to people on my bus all the time.

We chat Politics, entertainment, bullshit, and mostly complaints about how the bus never sticks to the schedule.
Fucking angry young punks gotta learn to lighten up an be more sociable.

They have buses in L.A.?

those bands are so boring live.

they can;t be as boring as interpol

Nothing can be as boring as Interpol.

Bingo. Certain areas will get you a lot of chatty folks. I remember this one older gentleman was telling a friend and I about how he was going to found his own law school. Sure, most people are quiet on the bus here but if you strike up conversation on an sunny Saturday afternoon, they won't give you the cold shoulder. People talk to me about the band of the shirt I'm wearing, the book I'm carrying with me, etc. stuff like that. And of course there are always the undiagnosed schizos that have passionate conversations with themselves.

at least no one wears thongs anymore. shit's gross.

I wish the name of this thread was reality. Nobody shuts their gobs on buses.

I actually read about a suicide bomber who said something on a bus: Boom.


sorry

I don't like it when people try to talk to me on buses. Usually they're real nut jobs.

I always get the nutcase on buses. The last one who sat next to me started talking to me, I shot him a glance and he said "You don't want to talk to me do you?"

The last time I was in the bus, I had a real head-case. She kicked me, later on she gave me a cd because I didn't give her an odd look like everyone else. I didn't take any because they all sucked.

i believe i have discussed in detail my phobia of speaking to strangers in public places, or conversely being spoken to.

I usually the get the schizophrenics, the ones who make absolutely no sense. "So like and then the spaceship but my wife went to the banana and found some Chinese men, yes, Chinese, and the spaceship but now the K-Mart lady..."

I once got this crazy dude, who was blaming the jews for the worlds problems. Saying something that they controlled the money of the world.

in LA?
was it mel gibson?
