People like this are great because you can always get a seat next to them.

If I were you I would have run a mile from that dude.Originally posted by el duderI was sat on the tube this morning, minding my own business as per usual...when...
a young, confused muslim chap, with beard, and big black bag got on and sat next to me. during the course of the journey, he opened his little Koran and began to quietly chant to himslef, rocking back and forth, in a mesmerized state....
anyways, noone seemed to blink twice at this, while i sat there kinda feeling a bit uneasy about it all.
now, dont get me wrong he probably was just a normal muslim dude, but surely they would have a little more sense after whats been in the news with bombings etc that peeps might get a bit nervous about that sort of behaviour on the tube?
anyway, what i found quite funny, after his little chat finished he leaned over and asked me if i had finished with my current bun and began to read Page 3.....
Who knows if he was doing last prayer before blowing offComment

It's bad form to blow off in front of other people.Originally posted by andyComment

It's unlikely he would have blow himself up with the koran in his hand,
as he would have lost the automatic right to the 70 virgins.

See, the problem there is that there are specific times you're supposed to pray apparently, which could make it difficult for him. I'd also add that since he didn't blow you up, he might even have been as scared of some nut with a bomb as you were - people need to travel to work and live. What do you expect him to do, get the bus?Originally posted by el duder
Normally I'm as annoyed by extremists and public displays of religion as many of my CUK brethren - today I must be having a moderate day. I just ask myself - what would you do if you were a young muslim dude who has cricket practice on the other side of London and you need to lug all your gear with you?Comment

Remove the bomb to make more space?Originally posted by ZorbaThe court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.
But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”Comment

Careful, I was branded a racist twat by SA for suggesting I felt uncomfortable with such fellows in these situations.
