You are not alone - I'm there with you! Although I haven't got a bus in years! I used to ponder how I could stand at the bus stop for 45 minutes and yet the buses were due every 20 minutes!
Oh look there's an example - I have been working hard all day - its coffee time - I stop to post a comment - my boss appears behind me - see - its not just you its me too!
I've been keep Chicago Town Pizzas in the freezer for years as "can't be bothered to cook" food. Now Tescos only ever have the Triple Cheese variety in stock. Which aren't bad, but what's happened to the Pepperoni, or Ham and Pinapple? There's space on the shelves, their in the online shopping list, but they're never in the actual shop!
WRT buses, it's an established phenomenon, similar to toast always landing butter-side down, or the other queue always moving faster.
Oh yes, i always pick the short queue and it ends up moving the slowest because some old dear is counting out her pennies at the counter or fussing over how much this or that costs.
Busses... gah the bain of my existence. Mine is always the last to arrive, if it arrives and if it shows up on time, it's packed. Some find that lighting a cig makes the bus finally show up. I don't smoke but i've seen this phenomenon happen.
I don't often get sucked into the trendy new tv shows and when i finally do decide to watch one that everyone is talking about, it's crap and am told the next day "oh that wasn't one of the better episodes" meh.
It's all sod's law. The first time my bf gets to meet my family, is the day before my dad goes in hospital for an operation.
And don't talk to me about trains. We don't get along.
The ignition of tobacco products to speed the arrival of buses does work. But you have to be really enjoying it to make it work. The non-smoking method to making a bus arrive quicker is to start walking toward your destination or to the shop to get ciggies so that you can do the "light a fag and the bus'll come" trick. The bus will surely arrive when you are just that little bit too far to run back to the bus stop in time to catch the bugger....
It's all your fault,you know. Yesterday after work i *just* missed a bus and the next 2 busses that were going in my direction were late. By the time i finally got to where i could catch a connecting bus, *that* bus sat at the terminal an extra 5 or 7 minutes before leaving as well so it took me an hour to get home when it could have only taken me half that. ;)
Postman Pat is just evil propaganda, making us think that postmen are nice people!
You've noticed that too? Just like Balamory shows the Scottish as kind helpful and slightly dippity people who invent things out of yoghurt pots.....The TV is a tool of the agents of the Sinister Organisation....
6. Whenever I'm waiting for an important piece of mail. The postman (who is in the employ of the "sinister" organisation behind my persecution) will hold on to the post or accidently lose it on purpose.
The bolded line made me pee myself. But only a little.
You don't have to convince me! ;) For instance, there's this tram, tram number 6, to be exact, that I take daily to get to my friend's place (where I'm crashing at the moment). Well, besides number 6, there's only one other tram, number 7, that passes my stop. And guess which one's always just passed my stop and which one always arrives five seconds after I get there? Yup... I rest my case!
