This is a question Things we do to fit in

"When I was fifteen," writes No3L, "I curled up in a Budgens trolley while someone pushed it through the supermarket doors to nick vodka and Benny Hedgehogs, just to hang out with my brother and his mates."

What have you done to fit in?

I've never seen anyone smoke on a bus
the chavs with their music are annoying but that's what mp3 players are for, although that doesn't stop the random people reminiscing about "when all this used to be fields". I always have to sit by the window in the bus, due to the boyfriend being scared the top of the bus will be ripped off again!

I'm sure I'll find a QOTW for this some day, but here we go...
At college I had to get the only bus there at about 8 and home at 4:20. My boyfriend had the option of getting a bus an hour there and home, so thankfully this concerns the second bus of the day otherwise it would have been incredibly serious indeed. I was sat waiting for him to turn up when I received a text saying "I'm gonna be a bit late, I nearly died."!!!!

Anyway, good old (rhymes with beaver) buses - the driver took a speed bump too fast on a narrow lane with overhanging trees. This caused the double decker bus to become airborne momentarily and hit the overhanging branch of a tree. This branch then smashed all except one window and took the roof off the bus. As this was the second bus of the day there were only 4 people on the top deck so one girl had deep cuts to her face, but the others were fine, just rather shaken! People were able to dodge the broken glass and branch. The first bus was full so no room to dodge I wouldn't be surprised if people would have been hospitalised.

All the trees are now cut perfectly bus shape, but if one scrapes the window, he is absolutely terrified, bless him.

But also the same company, although not involving me but near to where I live, the bus was driven under too low a bridge, and the roof was taken clean off.

a bus on the route I mentioned
once came down a hill in the ice a tad too fast.
and that's why the house at the ottom has a plywood board for a wall.
