Glasgow Muppets
"Nice of you to show up! Do you know how long I've been standing here? Are you lot on strike or something? Is it a Sunday service? Is there a bus off the road? Look at him! He doesn't care! He doesn't care!"
Not all pensioners are 'muppets'. Only the ones who make a nuisance of themselves have affectionately become known as muppets to Glasgow bus drivers. These are the ones who:
- Make loud mouthed complaints
- Old men who use foul language when relating a previous bad experience on the bus
- Crooners
- Those who get on the bus without first checking where it's actually going
- Ones who tell you that your driving is 'ridiculous'.
- Stinkers
- Ones that are just irredeemably stupid
Those are the main ones.
