I've got my Grumpy Old Woman head on today....just bear with me...ignore me if you will!
Stupid man got on the bus I was on this morning...on his mobile phone, standing in the doorway while two other people got on. Then he starts looking for his travelcard....still talking on the phone! It's not in that pocket, or this pocket...eventually he tells the person on the phone to hang on...then he starts looking in his bags that he's carrying. Meanwhile we are stuck at the bus stop...the driver won't close the doors and move obviously in case the man hasn't actually got a travelcard, but also because in the centre of town they don't collect money, you have to have a travelcard of some sort or buy a voucher at the machine at the bus stop. So there we are stuck while this stupid man looks for his card.....in his bags, in his pockets again, back to the bags, back to the pockets....eventually finding it in a pocket that he's already looked in twice .....insert picture of me rolling eyes heavenward!
What really annoys me about this, is the fact that he must have known he was going to get a bus, he's been standing at the bus stop for however long....why oh why had he not thought an iota about where his ticket is......
This is something that happens quite often...and I hate to say it, but it's usually women, they might have two or even three bags, and spend a good few minutes rummaging about by the door of the bus looking for their card or ticket......why do they put it somewhere where it can't be easily found? Why just dump it in your bag....put it in a pocket for goodness sake either in the bag or in your jacket!
OK rant over....normal service can be resumed!!
PS....I've just read this back, and now thinking how anally retentive it sounds....I think I need to get a life!!

Nope, it's all completely understandable and justified. You're right, of course he knew he was getting a bus, stupid person.
I think same when people turn up in the airport queue minus passport. Or they've put it in their suitcase and checked it in so it's already on its way to the plane. Dimwits! Slugbrains!
I know how you feel, so many morons everywhere you look!
