    I think we all know that there is all one solution to this rising gas prices crisis. That solution is public transportation.

    Public transportation is dreadful. Especially the bus. I have so many bus stories.

    Both. Plenty of crazy people on the bus, but that's nothing to write home about except for a specific 3 or 4. Dickhead bus drivers, on the other hand, can potentially be crazier than the crazy bus passengers. When I was on the bus going to Kilmarnock, the bus driver very nearly flipped the bus on it's side. I was sitting on the seat farthest from the window, and my friend was sitting at the window seat, and I actually slid down a little bit because of the speed we went round a corner. I thought I was going to die. I dribbled a bit of pee on my boxers too.

    I would put money on the fact that the bus driver was black, but you live in Scotland so I assume that there are no bus drivers, that are black. In Manchester black bus drivers are fucking crazy.

    If you want some nice bus/subway experiences come here, youll have SO much fun (and driving is just as fucking annoying as traveling in public services). About the topic now, it looks it's time for using alternative ways, instead of having 5 cars per family.

    I love how incompetent our leaders are.
    Gas prices go up? Obviously we should drill more oil, that'll lower the price. Solving our problem once and for all!

    Well half of all our criminals are in prison due to marijuana charges. Also according to this show:

    Almost every mad scientist/villain in the world is located in or associated with Canada. Which I find hilarious.

    I would rather take the Skytrain (elevated light rail system in Metro Vancouver) or the bus then pay hundreds of dollars for gasoline for my car every year. Plus, it is more environmentally friendly because most buses today use biodiesel instead of regular diesel fuel and most light rail systems run on electricity instead of fuel.
