That'll learn him not to play his 'personal' music so loud!

Don't you just hate it when you're on the bus and some **** sitting nearby has their 'personal' music player so loud that you can hear all the tsh, tsh, tsh, tsh crap from several seats away?
It would seem that maybe someone got fed up with it .....

A bit drastic but I know how he feels ...

there is no mention of music in that article is there? =\

Tbh get a car and you won't have that problem.
Public transport sucks for the reason in it's name, it's public, any idiot can come and use it and annoy you.

I think that if it wasn't the music being so loud, he would have found another reason to STAB HIM 50 or 60 TIMES and DECAPITATE him.

Just tap me on the shoulder and ask me politely to turn down my music, I will comply

...and the victim, described as around 20 years old, was listening to music through headphones.

I hate it more when old (normally) people say "that'll learn him", to be honest.

2nd last paragraph

doesnt say what he was listening too though

Other passengers said that the attacker and his victim were sitting at the back of the bus and the victim, described as around 20 years old, was listening to music through headphones.

The article mentions nothing about the guy's music setting the psycho off! It just says he was listening to his Walkman at the time.

Thread fails to deliver!

It tends to be people who don't have a very good grasp of English.

That is absolutely horrific.

Azagoth · 31 Jul 2008 at 19:10

I bet nobody thought to get their mobiles/cameras out and film it though! Would be a good addition to the Ogrish video forum.

i though that site (which you probably shouldn't mention) no longer existed?

brb googling.

edit: it would seem that there are now forums up. you learn something new every day.

That's just sick, you really can't appreciate how awful that must have been to see.

Seeing someone get beaten up in front of you is bad, but seeing a guy being stabbed like that, then having his head cut off. I don't know how people deal afterwards with something like that.

Izi · 31 Jul 2008 at 19:12

that learnt him alright

/s

Margaret · 31 Jul 2008 at 19:13

Do you think he liked Huey Lewis and the News?

But my grasp of English is poor and I don't do that :confused:

J.B · 31 Jul 2008 at 19:15

To put a positive spin on this story is rather disgusting

I hate people playing music...but come on! I was hoping for something funny.

Interview with the guy sitting just in front of the nutter.

If that idiot was going to react over a minor nuisance like that how the ***** **** will he react to something else and somebody else? Not a comforting thought!

On the other hand it could be someone who has a good command of English but wants to inject a little humour into the title.
