So I put this on Facebook as it happened a week ago but as a lot of you do not have me on facebook probably because I offend you or I’m just a bit too kinky for you or a number of other reasons ranging from Muslamic ray guns to Pat Butchers Lamb chops. MMMMM.
July 21, 2013 at 7:25 am #1274689Names changed so you don’t stalk my sexy friends / gf… btw the story was much more intense and eventful but I couldn’t put too much on their it’s facebook people’s attention spans are extremely short….
So it was a blazing hot 30 degree day and me and MA RUSSIAN GF were on the way to Milton Keynes, as we got to the bus we were getting on we noticed the bus was absolutely RAMMED and seemed like some people would even be turned down as it would be too full…
I began talking to people queuing saying that this was gonna be a right long shitty journey to which everyone agreed. Luckily we had two friends on the bus Ellie & Ellie (Yes that is right two Ellies……. and they had German exchange students with them (who were lovely for the record, and pretty hot, my GF later told me she could tell they had the hots for me)… Anyway on to the juicy details.
The bus was as always full of miserable people which I decided to take advantage of after having a laugh with some people I met on there (obviously a group of girls one being a German exchange) — I began speaking extremely loud saying about how everyone is so extremely happy and social and nice on the bus in many words ETC loads of people began laughing and most people who were indeed miserable before were smiling at me and enjoying my ‘show’. I then decided I’d have a sing along and with my beautiful singing voice and belted out ‘Wheels on the bus’, managed to get a few people to join in but not everyone has it like p0ly.
I began taking song requests but no one could come up with anything so I decided to do a very passionate version of ‘Funky town’ which went down very well. I sang a lot more songs but I won’t mention them. Except ‘The Strokes – Last nite’ and for Deez a QOTSA track I cannot recall.
I then decided to check how everyone was on the bus and asked if my singing was of any annoyance, everyone pretty much said they loved it and wanted more though one Woman said yes (though I think she was joking) so I made a big scene apologising profusely and pretending in a dramatic way I will no longer continue to interrupt her day. She literally had a massive grin and actually hid because she was so shy! There was about 60+ people on this bus and I was at the front so I was being watched by all.
After that I decided to make an announcement that as this bus is so happy the next people to get on the bus we all must give a massive round of applause and cheer.. One black lady was at the next stop so she got a bus of 60+ people cheering and clapping at her getting on. I began shouting to her WELCOME TO THE BUS OF HAPPINESS! WE ALL LOVE YOU! More things happened yet I think this status is long enough (FUCK TWITTER, 124 CHARACTER? LOL WHAT A PILE OF DOG POO).
Though when the bus stopped and we all got off quite a few old people came over and thanked me for my display of fun and love on the 150 Aylesbury to Milton Keynes bus. GOOD DAY
Well that was an interesting day spent the next 2 days living with Russianxvv getting totally jacked up and Vodka, I look like a Magikharp frok ok
July 21, 2013 at 9:09 am #1274694Sounds like the sort of thing that I would do.
July 21, 2013 at 10:44 am #1274692You’re lucky a social worker didn’t section you for 28 days for being “manic”.
They can do that you know. No 2nd chance, no lawyer, just straight into a secure unit and bang you up on downers when you insist you have the right to walk out of the (securely locked) door.
I’m not saying you did anything bad, I’m just saying there are some right judgemental miserable bastards around who have that kind of power.
July 21, 2013 at 11:27 am #1274698This story’s now made me smile twice – once on fb and once on here!
July 21, 2013 at 11:54 am #1274699LOl. The first time I went on Facebook yesterday in about 2-3 months and this is the only story/comment/status I read before turning it off.

Well they couldn’t considering i was very with it, think of it as a street type entertainer who was just being very friendly and not being a weirdo or freak… obviously that is for dispute but no one actually was uncomfortable around me people applauded me a lot and many a people thanked me for giving them a classic day even old people you’d expect to be miserable fucks were so positive.
I don’t think i was ‘lucky’ whatsoever to be totally fair, there would be cctv footage and 60 witnesses and even my body language could not be classed as anywhere near ‘manic’ pat. I was just having a laugh with my gf some germans girls, some other girls i know and the whole of the bus joined in. it’s times like these i believe we lack the most in the uk, people who’ve never met who normally are socially stuck in a way of acting on a bus/any place in society all coming together and having a quality laugh… thankfully i’ve always been blessed with having initiation skills and leadership so i am able to do this easier than most people. if my gf and a couple of other mates wasn’t on the bus i probably wouldn’t of made as much of a scene i’d still have spoken to everyone around me though as a cramped up bus like that you’d be mad to expect me not too ;p
I’ll leave you with the final comment from my fb status:
Bro someones gotta instigate some fun in this damn fearful society of segregation. People are just people, people are just people like you!! and me!! No need to be afraid, embrace it and let’s all be one big family because that is what we are!!! Just some of our family members we cannot reproduce with without serious biological issues so remember mongrol is the way to breed!
July 21, 2013 at 12:07 pm #1274686You used to get folk on the Underground doing this sort of stuff in summer in London in the 1990s, (when there was similar economic and political troubles) and it was well received, the only time they ever got any bother off BTP is if they were busking/begging as that was against the rules. Otherwise they were left alone, and just because British people generally do not talk to each other on London public transport did not mean someone doing so was immediately judged as “mad” or “bad” and notified to the authorities.
British people are way more tolerant of harmless eccentric / odd behaviour than folk think – provided you are genuinely friendly and inoffensive you can get away with all sorts of things like this, even if they don’t like it they are more likely to think that its some young lad making a youtube video for fun or some other jolly prank than anything sinister. Especially in what is still a relatively affluent area of SE England (if otherwise a bit bland/boring).
There was an Asian chap on here a few years ago from Essex who used to regularly go to London and convince foreign tourists (especially Americans) of such “facts” that the cultural centre of London was Peckham, and that they should beware when crossing the Thames as crocs and alligators were regularly caught by Thames Water during the summer and they occasionally escaped. (it wasn’t me – I believe he later moved to Scotland anyway..)

Don’t know where you source this info from Pat but a social worker may be involved in the process of sectioning someone but they certainly don’t have the power and final say to do so.
A psychiatric assessment is required and a signature from two GPs; one of which will be the individuals personal GP that knows the ‘patient’ personally through appointments and previous treatments and the other is a 3RD party GP to give a non-biased assessment of the individual. Then all three professionals must agree and sign a declaration determining the individual to be unfit to be on the streets on the grounds of being a danger to themselves or others.

Well, I’ve done WAY crazier stuff than that I no-one has tried to lock me up so far!

Uhuh. And it is rather surprising that of all the entries to secure mental wards…
… NONE of them have ever fallen outside of this criteria. Because it is never questioned. Person shows up, complaining (very loudly) about unlawful arrest and unlawful kidnapping, the doctors didn’t actually know the patient, and guess what?
Unless they sign up to say “yes that’s fine” then suddenly they are looking at a 6 month section, not 28 days.
It’s a complete bag of shite. No oversight, nobody can question the decisions, nobody can point out that the paperwork is BLANK. That’s all fine and hunky dory.
This really did happen, the psychiatrist decided the patient was better off going back to the parents who abused the patient, and are still happily prescribing downers.
Now fuck off for calling me a liar. (Walks).

July 21, 2013 at 1:43 pm #1274687TBH a young white middle class lad in his 20s with a non threatening group of friends won’t get in the slightest trouble for performing a comedy act but nor is it in any way “un-British”.
It goes back as far as the days of court jesters and more recently the end of the pier type shows found in coastal areas. What Poly did is not earth shaking social activism and in some ways more akin to that of a 1970s variety show entertainer or someone off 1980s/90s kids TV (where there was a element of both the old skool comedians and the new alternative comedy) but that might also be why it was well received in a mixed multicultural environment in todays Britain (even the bus route it was done on adds to the comedy value) … and compared to how I’ve seen my own peers behave in public especially after drugs/partying etc it seems inoffensive and amusing.

And yet that young lady that stabbed someone to death with a butcher knife had tried desperately to get admitted the day before the attack, saying that she was not safe to be on the streets and that she may harm somebody, only to be turned away!
July 21, 2013 at 2:43 pm #1274697”Jeremey…are you ? Look if anyone is going nuts here it’s you. They should section you for trying to section me !”
”If you try to section me you have crossed the line, and I will section you so God help me!””Guys, you have had your fun with sectioning, nobody is getting sectioned today.”
July 21, 2013 at 5:04 pm #1274688the whole incident does make me think of “Summer Holiday” with Cliff Richard though :laugh_at: (or maybe the newer version with Darren Day)
