yeah that was funny.


oh.. yeesh. I assume the bus was crowded? They also tend to close the doors early.. even though people are still boarding. On a crowded bus, it takes a while to get to the doors!

ok i've got another one

on my way home, woman in a yaris thinks yellow cross hatching means she can just put her car there (you know the stuff, means 'dont stop in this area') yea, shes pulling out of a parking lot into MOVING traffic, she wants to turn LEFT during rush hour ... so i honk at her ... like hello, you're doing something wrong and you just put your car PERPANDICULARILLY infront of mine ... and i can see her start yelling (in her car) at me (WTF!!!???) and shes pointing at the yellow crosshatching on the ground! like that makes it all ok!!


seriously, how do people get their licenses? and where the hell r the cops when other ppl do stupid things? cos they sure as hell show up when i do it ...



i think that rant made me more angry than i was before i started typing

Back in '94, during the Stanley Cup playoffs and after the seventh game, the whole downtown area was tear gassed by police, because some idiots first attacked that Starbucks on 3rd and Burrard then broke into other stores. We were trying to turn on to the Burrard bridge in our train of big old convertibles to GTF outta there, but pedestrians (20,000 of them) were all trying to do the same, milling through the streets. No kidding, but dozens were actually stopping and waiting for the WALK light before crossing, even though everyone else was banzai, and you couldn't breathe or see much for the gas.

Only in Vancouver!
