When people are all dressed up in a nice suit or whatever they are wearing, they act all big and on top of the world. They act is if they can handle anything.

Welcome to the dark side Gordon. I consider myself a misanthrope - as in someone who dislikes and distrusts the human race. Reminds me of the saying, everyone wants to go to Heaven, but no one wants to die. Cool article. Welcome to the dark side Gordon.

Something goes wrong, they fear for their lives, then they do the first thing that comes to mind to survive, which is get away from the threat as fast as you can at all cost. Obviously the driver was trained to handle emergency situations and was only trained to drive the bus. He was to be blamed for the pandemonium that ensued after his actions. If he had stopped the bus and calmly told everyone that he was smelling something burning and asked them to exit quickly to be safe, things would have been less chaotic.

I kept my composure so well that this woman beside me had the audacity to say to me "Why you never rush out, you really mek mi past you and come out, you a move so simple" i responded by saying "It was highly unlikely that the bus would explode and even if it did SO WHAT.

And yes, you prove who you really are in extraordinary situations, you know who's a coward and who's a hero. What annoyed me was that everybody was pushing the other person to get out….

And that's a totally wrong analogy to use re: the old man
