every single person on the tube
every single morning. lolling around, taking up all the seats, taking up all the standing area, crowding up all the doors, making every single carriage crammed and sweaty and hot and fetid and full of perverts, stopping me from getting on and getting to work looking cool and refreshed and professional but instead making me look harassed and hot and uncomfortable.

don't they understand i am entitled to an entire train to myself ffs? honestly, just how selfish can you get...

It's cunts like you that ruin my tube ride to w**k each morning.

I’m curious as to why you’ve ‘bleeped out’ the word work but have typed cunt in all it’s glory

One is a dirty, filthy word that children should be protected from

Me too
Personal space issues + public transport do not a happy combination make.

And yet you perpetuate this every morning?
Not just by giving them money for the priviledge, I bet you expect a whole seat as well for at least one stop don't you?

double seat
Ms Wipe is old enough - I know - to remember the Ben Elton chant - Double seat, double seat, godda get a double seat.

Its obvious that she lives too close to the city to not get a seat from the end of the line, but does not earn enough to move to Gerrads Cross.

Stop ya whinging and shower in the office.

Why not

Problem solved, empty carriage!!

You're all twats.
From my (and some visiting friends) experience of the tube you all try to push yourselves on to the first train that arrives -- seperating groups of friends, couples, families and the like while you try to make up for the fact you spent half an hour too much in bed by grabbing a train that is 5 minutes ahead of the next.
Us Northern commuters are a stern and selfish bunch but you subterranean lot take the twice-baked.

Too true
There's a time and a place to be in a crammed, hot, sweaty environment full of leering perverts and 8am on a Monday morning in a subterranean rail carriage is certainly not it.

There are too many people for me to consider them as precious beings with their own dreams and aspirations. They're just a jumbled collection of sweating flesh and garish textiles and they're IN MY WAY.

To the arabic man standing on the left-hand-side of the descending escalator at Tottenham Court Road Tube, chatting in leisurely fashion to your wife by your side, if you snap back at me that you KNOW you shouldn't be there blocking my way then why the FUCK are you doing it?

Only possible, honest response: Because I'm a selfish prick!

Underground employees (I can't honestly call them workers) should be SAS trained and armed with cattle prods. Tourists/Novices banned during rush and lunch hours. Substandard hygiene = cattle-prod and immediate ejection at nearest station.

No delays for jumpers. Why can't they just wash down 100 paracetamol with a bottle of Smirnoff at home like everybody else? Clean them up after midnight. Signal failures? Responsible individual(s) to be clamped into gibbets next to the failed signal as a warning to other engineers...

Goodness, I'm half way to a manifesto. Might send this to that twat of a Mayor.
