Default People talking to you on a bus..

.. has to be THE most annoying thing !

This morning, my school bus was late by like 30 mins, so I gave up waiting and walked to a different bus stop where I can get a different bus from, but it was a public bus stop..

So I got on a bus about 5 minutes later, and about 2 stops later, this 'OAP' (xD) got on the bus.. and sits.. by ME xD .. There were other seats too..

I looked round out the window so I didn't look like I wanted to get into a converstaion with her, but CLEARLY she didn't get the hint.. and I felt something on my leg, so I turned round and she was tapping me xD

"Nice nails".. so I just said thanks, but I was pretty sure she was taking the mick because I forgot to take off the nail varnish so they were all coming off.. then she started telling me about how when she was a little girl and she bit her nails, and do I bite my nails ? I do a bit.. but I said no, I didn't want a lecture!

Then it was like a stop before my school coming up, so I just said oh sorry I have to get off here, and I got up a stop early! I was like ahh!

Has this happened to anyone? Its like sooo annoying! xD

I find it funny personally and just join in to be nice but I do agree it can be annoying at times.

I was chatting to a woman for about 20 minutes on the train the other day. She was really nice,although I felt a bit bad because they're re-doing(ruining) our harbour at the moment and she was like 'What is everyone doing to stop it??' and I couldn't tell her that no-one was trying anymore.

I don't mind people talking to me as long as they're not completely plastered.

Hmm. I usually like random conversations I have with people on public transport.
The last man I talked to for about 4 hours (he was 30 :P) and he was Indian and fluent in 4 languages and conversational in additional 3. He was brilliant. He was like "I HATE people who come here and don't learn English. It's just ignorant." and he told me all about places to go if ever I went to India, and about his children and stuff. He was really nice .
Also I got talking to a nice 80 year old man at the bus stop last year and then he gave me 5p because I didn't have enough money for my fare and the bus driver was a dickhead. I know it wasn't enough but otherwise I'd have had to have walked for AGES and stuff and I was already running late. I saw him about 4 months later and tried to give him his money back but he refused. Such a nice man

Yeah, it's annoying but they're just sweet at nature. I think it was last year it was raining and the bus was packed, and this elderly woman got on with bags and I gave her my seat. Anyway, I stood up and about 5 minutes later she tapped me and had a pound coin in her hand. I didn't want to take it from her but she was insisting...I thought that was sweet.

hahah most people are fine if I ever go on it, on my village one all the old biddys used to love me!

But on my first day of college I missed the college bus and had to get on the public one. There was this REALLY angry looking drunk who looked like he wanted to kill everyone aboard.

Aww that was so sweet.
And I feel sorry for the old ones who want a natter, they must be so lonely, and I know if I ever get like that I would love a chat.

I HATE IT. Me and my friends were on a bus and there was one seat, my friend offered to give it to an old man and he SHOUTED at us! He was like "Just because im old does not mean i need to sit down all the time!" We were like OK? She didn't sit down and nither did the old man, we got off 2 stops later anyway!

we waved goodbye to him as we left

Same, I would be the person that would start the conversation with either someone who is a bit older than me (16-20), and someone that is over 60, I like being polite, but I wont be annoying, if they dont make any eye contact or look intrested I just shut up lol
