Bus driver chucks chained goth couple off his bus

article here

What do we make of this?

I imagine they were paying fares like anyone else, and the bus-driver doesn't have "fashion police" on his job description.

I mean, I think they look pretty daft, but then they might think I looked daft as well. (There's probably some truth in the comment on the DM page about looking back on it in 10 years and finding it embarrassing.)

Although...

Dani Graves. Chortle.

(Do they take the chain off at night, I wonder? Or when one of them needs a shit?)

Agree, mp. There are so many ways to be submissive. I loathe it when young girls are conditioned to want nothing more than marriage and babies. And doing it all whilst looking so normal.

yes it is the British Dance School of Motoring

it's very obscure

chrissnow · 23/01/2008 10:32

I used to be a goth. Mildly embarrassed about it now, more so that I have turned out so 'normal'!!!
I still have my goth chains/belts as I can't bear to throw them out. (plus they were blimmin expensive!!)
I used to get tutted at quite a lot, but was never thrown off a bus. Think driver was out of order.
Also lol at 'facsist pig' - I seem to remember that was our 'catchphrase' at the time too. I think its in the goth bible!!

ZippiBabes · 23/01/2008 10:32

i hope they are morris dancers

UnquietDad · 23/01/2008 10:33

Agree "fascist pig" outburst v funny. I keep hearing Rik from Young Ones.

chrissnow · 23/01/2008 10:33

yup it is bondage, domination and sado masichism.

onebatmother · 23/01/2008 10:34

but bcs other ways of being submissive are bad, doesn't make this un-bad, shurely mp?

I am learning right now with BDSM, MP. Struggled at first with clutch control in sparkletastic t-bars. And is astonishingly hard not to ladder my American Tan tights on the gearstick.

DaDaDa · 23/01/2008 10:35

I imagine he followed it with 'SO unfair' and stopmed off to make a Satanic curse.

rantinghousewife · 23/01/2008 10:36

Am lolling at some of you tutting and sucking your gums, we've all been there (still have the purple skirts and crimpers, consigned firmly to the loft, I might add).
Don't understand the feminist outrage about the submission either, so they're sporting an extreme version of it but most women who like to be domineered are completely in control of the rest of their lives.

onebatmother · 23/01/2008 10:36

why can't all goths just be distilled into one Noel Fielding though.

He is a nice boy with a nice smile isn't he. And one is enough, surely?

ZippiBabes · 23/01/2008 10:37

think johnny depp should be generic goth

onebatmother · 23/01/2008 10:38

i think one point, ranting, is that most women who like to be dominated don't do it on the bus.

morningpaper · 23/01/2008 10:38

well no it isn't IDEAL

but more embarassing than anything else

still far more offended by bride talk emerging from the mouths of young women

onebatmother · 23/01/2008 10:39

they could jobshare zippi, new EU directives coming in.

ZippiBabes · 23/01/2008 10:39

i am currently obsessed

rantinghousewife · 23/01/2008 10:40

But they're young, they like to shock, they've achieved that, don't you think?
Like many have said, in 20 years time they'll be dressed in Boden and debating about whether to send their little darlings to state or private school.

onebatmother · 23/01/2008 10:41

I think you're possibly right, MP, in this instance.

They look ludicrously selfconscious, and deeply uncomfortable.

TheDuchessOfNorksBride · 23/01/2008 10:47

It's outrageous that he wants to take his pet on the bus. She'll lose condition if she doesn't get walked enough. They perhaps need to go to the park and play stickie too.

Is she not wearing eyeliner & lipstick because that would be animal cruelty?

onebatmother · 23/01/2008 11:09

Perhaps she can lick her own bum, and that is the appeal?

ZippiBabes · 23/01/2008 11:15

i would look uncomfortzable hasving my photo taken by the dm lol

TheDuchessOfNorksBride · 23/01/2008 11:18

Perhaps they need a holiday?

no dogs allowed on the beach tho, Duchess, between the months of April and September!

Emprexia · 23/01/2008 12:25

Its nobodys bloody business how they choose to conduct their relationship with each other.

I'm loving the tone of understanding that the posters in this thread are showing

I happen to be best friends with a couple in a BDSM relationship and its a LIFESTYLE not a kink just about sex.

The Bus driver ought to be disciplined.

Kathyis6incheshigh · 23/01/2008 12:31

PMSL @ 'The Bus driver ought to be disciplined.' Preferably with a whip, by a woman in high-heeled boots.
