So the theory is, let's save the planet by not driving cars, which get us from point A to point B roughly when we want to. Let's all use public transport and then lots of people can get nowhere that they want to be when they want to, without harming the environment.
I don't know what it is about public transport that is so shit, apart from the fact that it doesn't fucking work.
'Oh look a timetable' thinks the innocent bystander on the platform, not realising it is a way to divert attention from the fact that the bus/tram/metro that was supposed to appear does not.
How is that supposed to make me not want to drive an earth-killing automobile?
Why bring this up now? Because once again I got let down by the loonies in uniform. Buy a ticket and enjoy a free hour of transport. NO - buy a ticket and enjoy 59 minutes of doing fuck-all in a cold and windy station whilst waiting for your wanker who can't drive in a straight line when all he is has to do is press GO or STOP and occassionally OPEN DOORS or CLOSE DOORS.
Meanwhile, a bunch of tossers in a conference are drinking coffee laughing and saying :-
"Do you really think they'll believe that timetable shit, Quentin?"
"Probably not Tarquin, but have you seen the new retractable roof on my new Bentley?"
DIE YOU BASTARDS DIE - AND I HOPE A TRAIN CRUSHES YOUR POSH CAR YOU SANCTIMONIOUS WANKERS
