WTF? Selfish behaviour whinge

Yep. Letterbomb.

i took a train the other week.
it was very uneventful.
no problems of any kind to report.

thats normally the case. but truly aggrevating when someone is just a dick

a really similar thing happened to Roberto, the train conductor tried to chuck him off the train cos of his bikes.

I make a point of carrying a bag that makes a ticking noise and shows exposed wires.. the cops might put a bullet in ya but the trainpigs leave you well alone..

i took my bike on a fairly busy train to malvern, around 3.30 on a friday. i positioned it as far out of the way in the 'vestibule' as i could.

some 'next' business man got on with a big briefcase made of iron, but clad in leather, and proceeded to sort of savage my bike in an attempt to get past, moaning and cursing. i saw him, but was disbelieving. eventually i snapped out of my trance, and leapt up and to try and move it but he just clouted it out the way, marking the top tube.

on this rare occasion i gave him a piece of my mind, in front of many startled passengers. i think i snapped because i saved for two and a half years to buy this particular bike. the conversation went pretty much thus:

"that's my bike" (calm)
"it was in my way"
"i could have moved it very easily, and was about to, and it wasn't in your way' (less calm)
'yes it was, and i was in a hurry, it shouldn't be here'
'well, it should be here, because the guard told me to put it here, and it has its won special ticket. and the next time you want violently rape someone's bicycle with your briefcase of death just because you're in a hurry then give me call, in the meantime, don't even think about touching it again or i'll do the same thing to you that you just did to my toptube' (extremely pissed off).

the lady who i had been conversing freely with up untiil that point agreed with my comments. apparently she was a 400 metre olympic medallist in the 1960s. she sided with the 'athlete' (me) over the 'corpulent fat cunt' (bike raper).

here ends the narrative.

:@ Just even reading that makes me feel really, really angry. If someone did that to my bike I think I would snap and become violent. I'm a calm guy 99.9% of the time, but if people basically vandalise my stuff... grr!!

@eyebrows... what an arsehole! I agree with Addie: letterbomb. Every single day until you get a satisfactory reply.

Hmm I've got to bring my bike on the train this week or the week after. South West Trains seem ok, don't have to tell them anything if it's after 10am, and there are places in every 3 or so carriages to put bikes. It's only a 40 min ride so I'd sit with it I think.

I would like to take this opportunity to point out that I am a selfish bastard, thank you for listening
