on a bus from sligo, i was listening to music when i got this stench and felt something at my feet. A guy, from about 6 rows back puked and it rolled all the way down to my feet

When I used to get the bus to school (it was a Dublin Bus though, not a school one) I sat upstairs near the stairs with one of my friends. Now, the bus I got was used by a lot school students, our school would've been the second one to get on and then at the next few stops there were two other schools. We sat on our seat, and got this really disguisting smell. One of the lads from the first school that got on told us there was puke below our seat, we looked and he was right

We couldn't move because the only available seat was behind us and meant we'd have to put our feet in it :eek: All of a sudden we got to the next school bus stop and these two first years bound up the stairs and take the only available seat... they put both their feet and bags in it (they shoved their bags under the seat without looking, it seems). Moaned about the smell then the realisaton donned on them. Their Ma's must've been furious!

I also remember sitting upstairs getting the bus home and there were a load of scangers at the back. One of them goes, "ugh, I think I'm gonna be sick in a bit", so the lad beside her goes "do you wanna get of the bus then?". Her reply was, "no, sure I'll just do it here" and proceeded to puke in the corner of the bus. After 5 years of getting 4 Dublin busses everyday I can say, hand on heart, I really don't miss it.

Some smelly **** on a bus home from town (Dublin). He was at the back of the second level, on his own, no one would go up. The driver suggested not going up; I thought a little kid had shat themselves. He had this huge disgusting and yellow beard.

I saw him a few weeks later carrying a bin bag down a lane...lovely.

I ****ing hate people who dont wash themselves. :mad:

have to add if anyone used to get the 29A Dublin bus they might remeber, regularly there used to be this headcase on it shouting the odds at everyone saying "why are you so racist towards me"

Did somebody ever take the time to explain that being a cunt isn't an ethnic category so extreme discrimination on the basis on being one isn't racist?

there was this huge old white guy with a beard on the bus and he asked me for a shoeshine and then beat the crap out of me.

Bus back from Oxegen 08. 6am, tired, hungover, weighed down with bags and muck. just want to sleep on the comfy seats.

Some d4 guy behind us with the loudest, raspiest, chainsaw drone in the world is spouting bs with all his dickhead friends at the top of his voice. They start talking to everyone on the bus, using the most obscure movie/tv references which NO ONE gets. If he fell out the back window and was crushed under the truck I would have smiled.

About 4 years ago i was on a bus from dublin to cork, the bus was packed but i got a seat by the window and was quite chuffed with myself when low and behold an all singing, all shouting drunk/junkie sat down beside me and whipped out a naggin of brandy. I thought ffs, this is going to be one long journey and it really was. He talked non-stop about utter ****e, kept offering me a swig of his brandy that had bits floating around in it. I was trying hard not to vomit and i could see people around me with their relieved, smug faces, thinking 'thank God he didnt sit beside me'

So anyway we stop in Urlingford and he gets a sausage sambo and ends up covered in ketchup and takes another swig of his brandy and proceeds to fall asleep on me. Great!!! He wakes up a while later and takes a little bag of stuff out of his sock, rolls a 50 euro note and asks me to hold it while he puts a bit of the white stuff on his hand and then snorts it off his hand. Then he turns to me and says 'you arent a garda are ya?' I had to laugh.

If ever there was time for saying 'are we there yet?' was on that fecking bus. Nightmare!!!

Went to Budapest for a week, must have been mid 90's

England had just played a qualifying match in Italy and i think they drew, qualifying for one of the big tournaments.

We flew back to Manchester as was living in Wales at the time, but went via Frankfurt.

Just got on the plane at Frankfurt and it there was about 50 England fans, the one's who had been banned from travelling direct and had gone via Germany to avoid any 'Police' interference.

What a nightmare trip, hated England more than ever after that day

I once got the dart at rush hour and the train was jammed. I managed to get my hand on a pole so i wouldn't fall into people each time the train stopped, then this sweaty old fat guy got on and basically stole my pole. Instead of just holding onto it somewhere like a polite person he leaned against the whole thing leaving me with no room. After a while i said to myself "**** this, i'm not gonna let him bully me out of a space on the pole" so i grabbed it when he was leaning up for a bit and then he leaned back. I expected once he felt my hand there he'd apologise and let me have some space but no, he just leaned back and stayed there with my hand trapped between his sweaty neck and the pole.

After a few seconds i just couldn't take it and gave up, pulling my hand free from the pole. I could still feel his sweat on my hand so i looked at it and it was actually wet with this guys neck sweat.

. Horrible.

I did a LOL

Try that on my crowded bus or train, and not only will I take your bag and sling it at random down the carriage, I'll sit next to you and prevent you from going after it, you selfish mong.

ugh, i'd just move seats. you can't MAKE me sit next to you!

to be clear, when the bus is nearly full, of course i move my bag. it's not as if i expect someone to stand!! but when there are plenty of empty seats, i'm not going to have some smelly weirdo decide they want to sit next to me and talk my ear off.

Some old woman sitting beside me picking her nose and flicking it, I learned a valuable lesson....NEVER sit down stairs, the old and the odd rarely make it up the stairs.

LOL...I'm on public transport every day ... two parts of my journey include a bus ... I live and dye by that rule

:D ... plus the hot girls normally come upstairs too

Teenagers playing music on their phones. Annoys the fcuk out of me. Had to tell them to turn it off on a bus to Ardee.

Said it a bit load so it was turned off sharpish.

timelessone · 21-06-2010 12:26pm

Getting a Greyhound in Manitoba, Canada a couple of years ago.

I'm listening to my I-Pod, dozing off, when some fcuker comes up and cuts my head off!!!!..........

Haven't gotten a Greyhound since.

Worst holiday ever.

I HATE THAT. How can anyone listen to music with no bass anyway? And the music is always auto-tuned crap. And the teenagers are always skangers.

RobBaxter · 21-06-2010 3:48pm

a fat person sitting in the aisle seat trapping you is probably the worst especially because most fat people stink

thebigbiffo · 21-06-2010 4:33pm

one of those god awful 'city imp' buses..where the hell they ever go to anyway?

coming out of rathmines about evening rush hour and it's one of those really humid rainy days. an auld lad gets on and sit beside me - scruffy, very long grey beard. he doesn't smell the may west like, but if a wet dog smell. but then he produces the snack box and starts tucking in. he's suckin on the bones and slurpin around the chicken and licking his lips - grease all over the beard and bits of flesh, and the smell's ****in dreadful.

i though i was gonna puke so i basically jumped over him, got out at the next stop and walked the rest of the way to town in the rain. it was worth it

I think that they were deemed unsafe after a few too many crashes? I'm nearly sure that now they use them to sell Nitelink tickets in town.

Ok, here is my roll-call of awful passengers.

Too many to choose from. Who could I pick from this motley crew?

• The woman who plucked the hairs out of her chin on a crowded rush hour bus?
• The man who took off his shoes, put his stinky feet up on the barrier upstairs at the front of the bus, then ate a box of KFC, throwing the bones on the ground?
• The guy who injected heroin into his penis down the back of the bus?
• The (drunk) man who threw a newly-bought vase out of the window on his way home from the shop because he couldn’t figure out how to fit it in his shopping bag?
• The family - where the kids sat upstairs and the mammy sat downstairs, and spent the entire journey roaring up and down the stairs at each other? Not a fight, mind you, just an incredibly loud "chat".
• The guy who hit on me for the ENTIRE journey home, got shot down at every opportunity and then asked me if I was interested in seeing pictures of his GF?
• I’ve too many drunk/smelly/dirty passenger stories to remember individually… but I have read through this thread and felt the pain of every other fellow passenger's horror stories!
• The nutjob who sat beside me on a Ryanair flight once and spent the entire time on the plane alternating between praying loudly and jabbing me in the ribs?
• The woman who used nail polish remover on her fingernails on a flight, then filed her nails, then re-painted them on a PLANE. Enclosed spaces, noxious fumes… bleh.
• Oh yeah, the stoned guy who decided to pleasure himself on the bus one morning. I was on my way to work. It was my first job, I arrived with eyes like saucers from the shock of it!
• The drunk young bucks in their first year of college who spent their entire journey on the Nitelink bus deciding whether to get off the bus to vomit, or if they “could hold it” until they got home. At one stage, one of them rang their housemate and asked them to get a bucket ready for them.
• The woman who uncorked a bottle of wine with her TEETH and then swigged from the bottle all the way home?

It's like Sophie's Choice! Anyway, these people ^^^^^^^ are the reason I learned to drive. It is bliss.

soups05 · 21-06-2010 6:21pm

i was on a trip to spain and there was this family,four kids and mother,sitting beside and behind me. they did my head in the whole flight. asking silly questions about spain,planes,clouds etc. consantly jabbing on about some sh*te while i just wanted to relax and start my holiday. and the mother was drinking and flirting with me while i was trying to chat up the stewardess. it was the longest flight of my life.

next year i swear i will go on holiday alone and leave the wife and kids behind

:D:D:D

A man in his twenties sitting across from me on the train taking pictures of my boobies.
It was a fitted top, I'm top heavy & the train was rocking a bit so naturally they were jiggling.

He obviously wasn't well.

Ohmigosh, that happened to me too, on a Dublin bus!
He was sitting behind me :eek: I wouldn't have even copped except for a girl I vaguely know came over to sit beside me when she'd noticed.
SO creepy. Ew.

Also the woman on a Bus Eireann bus who removed her shoes in the seat behind me. I had to move because of the smell...

Oh and also people in general who sit in the back and play loud dance music on their phones :mad:

jeez!!!

Don't get me going.

Took a trip on the green Luas and this fat middle aged bint hipped up to me.

Fcuking arse like a bag of slates, but just before the Dundrum stop she unloaded a seeper:eek:Actually shifted the cheeks and unloaded:eek:

You could put the fcuking thing on a pan and fry it!

Bang of stale coleslaw and garlic nearly melted the windows.

Had to abandon after Leopardstown.

fcuking hell.

Berty · 21-06-2010 8:58pm

I know Im getting on here late and people normally dont read this far but hell:

I was on a bus from Dublin to Limerick and this English lady who was giving out to a girl for no reason the whole way stands up on the packed bus and says

"Fvck you you dirty septic tampon whore"

WOW!

She got off the bus in Roscrea. I still think to this day she had no idea where she got off.

Fvck her!

_sparkie_ · 21-06-2010 9:19pm

tube into london and this obese fella sits beside me in a small enough two seater. i was crushed up against the glass for half an hour. it would have even been that bad but there were loads of empty seats with nobody on them and he smelled of grease.

What's the worst passenger you've been stuck with on a bus, train or plane?
