Alright, for the record my original post was a bit of a rant about someone being rude with a tongue in cheek underline to it. I've clearly hit a sore spot when it comes to suicide, I apologise for the hyperbolity of my wording. All I wanted to get across here is that taking out your personal issues (being fat, on a train, not wanting to get up for an older disabled lady because you're fat) is not cool. 

This was the first I saw of it all.  If it was tongue in cheek then you certainly fooled me because your posts that followed it were pretty consistent with its message.  But we'll leave it there I think.

Couldn't agree more. People thinking that it's all about the person killing themselves is all deluded. Train drivers, emergency services, line inspectors, commuters etc all get horribly affected by it. If I was ever going to kill myself I'd roll over in a self made ditch with a pre-prepped shovel\mound of dirt to cover me in. That way no one has to deal with me being selfish. A friend of mine used to be a train driver for south west trains until about two years ago when some 20 year old literally got cut in half in front of him by the train - he's been on benefits with PTSD ever since. There is nothing a train driver can do to stop the train and it causes so much mental harm to the proud folks who drive our trains.

Ah, I see. No my original post was about having to stand on a train next to a disabled lady while an overweight person took up two seats and wouldn't move for her. It sort of spiraled from there. Sorry about that.

etc. is up there with jumping in front of a train to make a huge statement about how sorry someone's life is.

The old biffer, of a cleaning lady, who stopped halfway through the security barrier, at work, and told me she wasn't going to let me tailgate. I'd got a pass in my hand FFS!

Oooh, that'd have got my goat. I wouldn't have said anything at the time, but I'd be thinking of loads of things I could have said afterwards.

"Why don't you go clean a toilet!?". Something witty and cutting like that.
