To be fair, there is a bit of crossover between the two.

'c***s in munition factories' surely

Pretty sure that Stellaboz is getting pretty close to anti-semetism with his rant here.

Was on a train a while back where I had a reserved seat but someone was in it and the train was 90% empty so went and sat in another window seat. One of the stops a huge fat guy gets on and comes and sits in “his” reserved seat beside me despite the rest of the train being basically empty and him having the option of sitting in numerous places where he’d have two seats to himself as he requires. Sat for about 5 mins then asked to get out, took my stuff and sat in a different seat. Felt a bit of a dick as the guy clearly knew I was moving because he was a fat fucker and was crushing me against the wall, but at the same time why wouldn’t you just sit in a free row ffs.

Train operators to blame for this. Fatso wanted his booked seat because other people may board later with claims on the empty seats. Both scotrail and Virgin fail to mark reserved seats correctly leading to confrontations like yours.

Ouch.

Oh and I bought a t shirt from a Jewish guy last weekend so that ends any anti semantic nonsense.

Fat people should be banned from public transport, sick to death of getting my manly shoulders banged into by some landwhale's arse. Same goes for women and their shoulder bags and collection of shopping bags. A fat woman with said bags looking for a seat is like a Katamari tearing down the train aisle.

Maybe too harsh, so at least have non-fat, men only carriages/planes to give us some peace and civility.

If the train wasn’t 90% empty then that would be fair enough. But unless at the last remaining stop about 100 people boarded then there was no need. He also could sit in any seat and then if someone came on and wanted to sit there when it was getting busier, simply move across to his reserved seat. Absolute nonsense choosing to crush one of the few people in the entire carriage against the window when there are 50 free rows.

People on trains who have incredibly loud phone calls, completely oblivious to where they are, are c***s.

You should write that up as a comedy sketch. Maybe make the loud guy have a giant phone. Id laugh at that.

Next time be prepared with an empty can of Tennents Super on the fold down table. And don't wink at approaching lard arses.

'Reported for racism' incoming but there is a Chinese woman who travels regularly down here and it's fucking ridiculous how loud she speaks. If you're incapable of speaking at a decent level don't do it in public ffs.

This I can do.

This I refuse not to do.

That phone setting where every press of a button or the screen is accompanied with a click. I may have to murder the girl opposite me that is obviously having a conversation by message and her phone is going CLICK CLICK CLICK CLICK CLICK constantly. Just no need for it.

But by sod's law the 1 passenger who got on later would be the one who had a reserved seat and the lardass would be sitting in that seat.  The lardass would then have to move and would probably then want to sit in his original reserved seat, which by then would be occupied by the only other passenger who got on later - leading to an awkward situation.  You can see how these things can escalate.  Lardass did right IMO.

But this lococarnage could be prevented by the train company putting a wee "reserved" ticket in the slot at the seat. Or the fancy train company using the electronic signs correctly.

Football clubs could also heed this with their marking - correctly - seats reserved for season ticket holders.

Absolute arseholes. I was sat across from some posh middle aged c**t on the phone to her daughter's school, absolutely seething that she hadn't got the grades to get into Uni. I think I heard "That's absolutely unacceptable" at least half a dozen times.
