I actually really need to share this, honestly.

I was in town today with my mate, a cute girl and my best friend.
We were like coming out of HMV and were going to cross the road to go to this little head shop - I wasn't paying attention at all.


We stopped to wait for the cars to stop and then I couldn't see anymore coming so I was like 'Epic' and went to run across the road and my friends and everyone else stayed where they were.

I ran across the road and stopped in the middle of a little island, and let another car past.

Then I walk straight out - off the little island, onto the road again and was walking slowly.
I was showing off tbh, because the girl was really hot who I was with and I wanted to look all awesome - but anyway I was walking and then I heard them all shouting at me but I thought they were just kind of worshipping how much balls I had.

No.

Suddenly I heard above everyone else's screams, my best friend just shouting 'DUDE!!' and I turned around to see a Double Decker Bus - inches away from me.

I'm not even kidding, you have no idea how ******ing close this Bus was to me.

I actually ran and jumped off the road, and was almost crying with shock - like I couldn't stop shaking, and everyone was kind of like WTF.

I swear to God, then when my friends crossed the road I was so grateful, like beyond grateful - to my best friend who shouted 'Dude!'.
Like honestly, I wouldn't even be on here at all right now - I would of died 4 Hours ago.


Honestly people, events like these make you realize how lucky it is to be alive.
Still can't get over it.

LOL
There's still one open here, it's been opened since like the 70s and stayed open.

But they still like other stuff, so it kind of disguises them in a way.

Haha - That's what I thought when I read the article I was like 'Thank God I didn't die earlier then'.

It's kind of like you don't want to miss out on all the action of the end of the world - You want to go out in style.

[Suze]

It wasn't your time to go Patrick. We're stuck with you dude Be more careful in future though

That was a bit of an evil karma for showing off.

No solid proof behind it.
Some silly man who predicted the end of the world in 2006 - thinks we're going to die by an earthquake on Saturday.

lol Yeah for sure; like I'm really paranoid now about crossing roads - it really opened my eyes completely.

Bliddy date keeps changing If we knew for sure, could max out on everything and just enjoy what's left of my time on earth then

*Shakes head*

Serve's you right. Now you will look properly before you cross the road. Didn't the hedgehogs in the adverts teach you anything?

Why did the bus not attempt to stop

IFKR!

I literally looked at the bus man when I turned round to face the hideous bus that was coming at me - and he just seemed like he didn't give a ******.

I know drivers that would rather drive themselves off a road - rather than run over a Deer.
This bastard was willing to just squash me.

Ew - All I could think afterwards was, 'I could of been under a tire, with my insides on the road if my mate hadn't of shouted Dude.'
Scary sh*t.

[Jords]

Bloody hell! I nearly stepped out infront of a car inches away and thought that was the end of me, but a freaking double decker bus

[GypsyGoth]

Glad you're ok

About six months ago I was almost knocked down. It really woke me up to being careful on the roads.

You've obviously had no experience of evil bus drivers, they start the bus when you run for it and just get there, and other times go right past your stop when you ring the bell So why would they stop for Patrick

[T*]

This was like me crossing to debhenams. A pegout vans tyre SKIMMED THE BACK OF MY CONVERSE.

The psychoactive substances bill banned the drugs sold in them. Not the shops themselves. You can still get bongs and seeds and stuff.

[Shaun]

-bets Joe was driving it-

[Glenn.]

Bus drivers have an agenda

[Ramsay]

Ah right cus all the shops over here are all closed down

[Jordan.]

Heres the bus:

Yeah plenty of the new ones that popped up closed down because the synthetics were their only source of revenue. Plenty of big ones are still open for folks like me to get fine glassware and seeds, fortunately .

[Locke.]

If this isn't enough to have Joe banned permanently then I don't know what is
