I’m finally not working a Saturday and so why not capitalise on this welcome surplus of free time cunting, ‘People Who Stink of Weed On The Bus’?
As if smoking weed regularly isn’t already the habitual equivalent of destroying your ambition, drive, basic logical reasoning, working memory and ability to look someone clearly in the eye and have a half-way decent conversation without shiftily drooling out inane, rambling bullshit, it also stinks of a badger’s arse after it’s been busy renting it out all weekend at a local homeless shelter. It’s fucking disgusting.
So, when a local autistic DJ gets on my bus home on a Friday night in his canvas khakis, anxiously gripping a record bag, sporting the oily, pallid complexion of Gollum and the kind of open-mouthed expression that completely repels lucrative job offers, the last thing I want to smell is the unmistakable foul stench of condensed, freeze-dried, weapon-grade ganja polluting my fucking air space (and every other poor sod on the bus with me).
Luckily, gone are the days when snotty herbert young kids thought it ‘cool’ to play shite repetitive music from their phones at the back of the bus. I mean, it’s hard enough containing my rage on a tightly wound, panic chamber of a busy local bus at the best of times, without the added misery of the Bluetooth amplified din of syncopated hi-hats and mumbled ‘social commentary’ to go with it. In these moments, preventative and punitive sentencing for murdering children is the only bulwark between me and a hard stretch. And don’t they fucking know it?
But, I digress. The thing to replace that previous public nuisance is these dopey, fucking carbuncles. Advice for weed smokers who might be leaving the house and catching a bus to your mate’s basement for another life-stalling smoke-up sesh:
1) Change your clothes. The chronic-encrusted wax jacket you’ve been replacing your actual skin with for two years is now past its sell-by-date. Even snakes shed their skin. And they don’t smell like a giant’s arse has just exploded all over them. Heard of a launderette? Save a few quid on not buying that 8th of Acapulco Gold today, splash out on some basic grooming and wash your civvies, you grim cunt.
2) Get a fucking job and stop wasting all your ‘downtime’ dulling your God-given faculties with a ‘natural herb’ you BELIEVE is giving you a shamanic window onto another plane of thinking, when actually it’s making you painfully embarrassing to listen to, MORE
depressed, totally unemployable, inarticulate, locked into a self-perpetuating, vicious cycle of poverty, and WORST OF ALL, robbing anyone of any way to discern any actual signs of life within that petrified husk of a corporeal vessel you call ‘you’. You smell like gum disease, you fetid, fucking cunt.
3) Or, just don’t get on the 9:59 pm Loop bus from Broadstairs to Ramsgate Mon-Fri. Cheers mate.
