It feels like an age since i've been able to sit down, draw breath and winge and whine about 'stuff'

So here goes then *inhales deeply*

Here's a thing ...

Imagine this - it's sardine time in the crowded métro at eight in the morning, the trains are running late, people are getting flustered about the super-mega-important client that they just 'have to' meet ... those contracts that've gotta be signed right here, right now, today

In between the harrumping, the tut-tutting and the general incivility, people're a hustlin' and a bustlin' - everyone's giving somebody else a sly dead leg, an innocent poke in the ribs and a surruptitious scuff to the classy babes' Manolos

All are way too preoccupied about their own little inconsequentiel lives to worry about the pregnant chick with morning sickness squashed up by the door - i'm in no way better i hasten to add :'(

Whyfore ?

Where hath thou gone, peace and goodwill to all man ?

The answer is easy to behold

The passive-agressive refusniks have made their stand

They. will. not. be. moved.

By hook or by crook, they will not cede their god given right to get their fat Mac Donaldised, Vanilla lattés-with-a-sprinkle-of-equitable trade chocolate-to-go-light asses out of the seats that we call 'strap ons'

(cut your smirking there at the back of the class ..you know who you are)

The carriage could be as crowded as a ... a ... a ... an overly crowded thing, but the four dickheads next to and beside of you will not budge a dodammned inch ... uniquely out of principle (not unless you scream 'watch outttttt, there's an un-pasturised cheese bagel topped with non gmo bacon strips on the loose)

Bastids !!!

But I have been touched by tha grace of gawd

The evangile according to Damiel 8:20:05

" Ô hear me ô my people !

When i say :

Raise him above you, for he be few amongst us.

Lift him unto the light of our Lord the Saviour in rapturous extasy so that they may be reborn again and that they may show shame for his selfish aims.

Raise him up by all sides, untoward the place that awaits them - the coldest, dankest, trouser spoilingest piece of concrete ever beknownst to mankind that is the platform of redemption ..

... at the next station ye shall cast him assunder ...

... for the path of the sanctimonious arsehole is beset on all sides by antiquités and the shellfish and the petomanie of other unthinking idiots.

Blessed is he who in the name off relinquishing his seat, shepheards the weak-kneed into the shadow of WorldCorp for he is is truly his comrades' watchdog and the finder of lost métro tickets

I will strike him down, with great vengeance and furious anger, those who attempt to make stand my fellow passangers from seating themselves

And you will know my name as the extremely annoyed one when i lay my own knee upon thee..

... euhhhhh ...

... and so says the holy spirit ...

Ahhhmmmennnnnn"

Hmm ... that's what i say, me

I've gotta stop watching South Park
