Cheerfulness

I have promised myself that i will never do anything so down as i did yesterday, but that was an idea that just hit me, and i thought i might as well execute the easy blog possibilities.

So now - on with the show!!!! - back to today.

As i sit at the bus stop at roughly 3:43 having just got off the 343 - how awesome is that! - I notice that my bus is going to be along in three minutes. Contently I relax back into the acrylic comfort of a bus stop bench. Sure enough someone else comes along, no complaints, the bus stop isn't mine - but it should be - after all. The series of event that followed were quite peculiar, leading me to believe that Youtube has a very real perspective of life.

The woman starts talking to me, 'Which bus are you waiting for'
'The 12' I tried to be polite whilst attempting to stone the conversation
'Oh, i'm waiting for the 78' Still seeming perfectly happy
'Good' Ah, relief, conversation is finished

...

'Have you seen a 78?'  Her persona annoyingly cheerful
'No, i've only been here a minute'  My bus! There it is, never have i seen a more welcome sight!

...

She proceeds to look around at every person at the bus stop, wishing them all a 'Happy New Year'

Now, I have nothing at all against people who are happy and cheerful and such like. But, she was just talking her mind, I mean, that was almost scary.

But my link to Youtube is that I enjoy watching people talking about stuff, and they always seem to have no cares in the world, and i know for a fact most do.  <    Try using the clause properly, it sounds really weird! Anyway, so this make me wonder why people do such things.

Conclusion;
There are two or possibly three types of people in the world.
Those who brush their teeth before and after mealtimes.
Those who wear the correct days on their socks
And those who do everything in a completely random fashion.

Most people are actually the third, but i'll be willing to wager that the woman at the bus stop was type two. I work this out by - a complex mathematical equation - realising that type number two are the everything has its place type of person. And once you are that type of person you can do nothing until everything is in its place, and once everything is in its place, you can leave the house with everything being perfect and you can be happy and able to converse with the world.

I'm sure she wouldn't have been quite so happy to learn that i was wearing friday socks on a thursday.
