It's busy, no lie

  Tube worker on the platform:

"Please make your way along the carriages horizontally to make room for other passengers to get on. (Short pause) This is just a figure of speech. You don't need to lie down. Thank you"

General chuckles all around.

Shit allergy

Bloody mess

  Two blokes on the tube were talking about a shag that one of them had had recently:

Guy 1: "...so she bit me right on the fucking chest!"
Guy 2: "Fuck! What a crazy bitch. Didn't it hurt?"
Guy 1: "Fuckin caned mate. Bit of blood came out and everything."
Guy 2: "Fuck, that's raw!"
Guy 1: "You know it mate, what if I'd caught Hepatitus or something?"
Guy 2: "You can't get Hepatitus like that man."
Guy 1: "Yeah true. If anyone was gonna get it, it'd be her."

Keemosabi

  A couple of IT bods having a brunch meeting on the table behind me and one says to the other...

"Listen, Keemosabi bust his ass to get here and I'm just not getting any same-o same-o!!"

That was just minutes after the same person stated that he was "mildly tempted" to have another sausage in his sandwich.

I don't understand.

How the other half live

  I'm scared, it's all Chav people round here. They have no money, nothing. I mean, look at the clothes they have, it's relative deprivation. It's so weird that so close is Canary Wharf with Karen Millen and the like, and here everyone has 'Danny and Gabanna' or 'Nick: just did it'...Gosh, how the other half live!
