Just had the strangest train journey

Just had a 5 hour train journey from Nottingham to North Wales.
First train I was on...some guy was bitching at a 65 year old woman to get up and stand up because she was in his seat. His ticket was for the seat, but come on she was 65+ and there was no other seats.
Second train I was on...not so eventful only a 30 minute ride anyway.
Third train.
Rather uneventful apart from when we got to the second stop. A family comes on. First I see a young girl (16 at most) come on the train with a couple of carlsbergs in her hand. I'm was watching Private Ryan. So I just think what the **** and carry on watching.
2 minutes later I hear banging, and there 3 or 4 little kids running around banging their coke bottles on the windows.
The mum was sat right opposite me, and with grandmother sat behind me. They do nothing.
15 minutes or so pass, and they still make a racket, some guy (rightly so) asks one of the kids to be quiet. Then the boy runs back to his grandmother and says "some guy told me to be quiet". So she marches him back over to the guy, sits him next to him and says "it's okay, make as much noise as you want".
Then two girls keep looking at her (the grandmother) wondering what the racket it. And she stands up saying "do you fancy me or something, you keep checking me out" so they are shit scared and shut up.
Then I noticed that the mother, who was pregnant (obviously the 5 or so kids she already had aren't enough) was drinking beer, and I had noticed that she'd been through 3 or 4 at this point as had her daughter. It's only when her daughter stands up that my GF points out to me that she is pregnant too (and drinking) remember she is 16 at most (legal age is 18 to drink).
Crazy kids running around. Some psycho grandmother. Mother and daughter both pregnant and both drinking.
Next the little girl was running up and down the train spitting on people. And all the grandmother could say was 'don't do that, it's not nice' and did nothing else.
I was just sort of in disbelief.
Some people just aren't fit to raise children.

It sucks being used to American fast food sizes.
American Medium = British Large
American Large = British Super Size
And AFAIK the cans are the same size (330ml). Just that the 'fridge packs' are 10 cans rather than 12 because British fridges are smaller.
Oh by the way. Following the same patern from above.
oversized is dix,boobs, and bellies.
American Large Condoms = British Regular Condoms.
GG America.

What I mean is that it is obviously happening in Europe as he said that he was traveling from Nottingham to North Wales. And also you are a fail because you think that it does not happen in the US.

I had an interesting bus trip around a year ago, I suppose this is the thread to post it in.
I was returning home from my, at the time, girlfriend's place. The bus ride was to be a 30 minute ride so I didn't bother bringing along a book to read. I sat down quietly and just tuned out for a good 5 mins or so. Then suddenly I snap back into reality as I see a man saying hello to me. Being polite I said hey back and offered him a seat.. not the smartest of ideas I must say.
When I got a clear look at his face I could tell he was mentally handicapped. He had a creepy looking, unshaven face and was carrying around a guitar case. Thinking I was about to get mugged or something I tried to crack up a civil conversation. I asked him if he played guitar. So he rattled off this giant rant about how he plays guitar and writes his own music. He told me that he just finished writing his latest song, describing himself throat fucking George Bush while John Howard was gagged and forced to watch.
Feeling slightly scared out at the time tried my best to talk about something a little less strange, which only lead to him telling me and out his drawings about his songs and his.. "rampant" sexual experiences. Although in all honesty some of it was bordering on rape.
Boy do I ever love meeting new friends >_>
