S t a r G a z e rOften seen procrastinating within another universal dimension, the ‘Star Gazer’ persona can be adopted by two extremes of people
– ‘The Floatys’: A people which will drift to a dream-like space without relevance nor any intellectual gain . . . or memory of being there.
And ‘The Meditators’: A people who will make use of the spare time to reflect upon their existence and intellectually dispute their personal issues/challenges yet to overcome.
The ‘Star Gazer’ may appear separated from their surroundings, drifting in and out of consciousness as and when a bus approaches.
If spotted whilst waiting, refrain from distracting the ‘Star Gazer’ as they could be about to solve one of life’s many mysteries . . . or you might just give them a fright.
G r a n n y L i n e F o r m a t i o n
The ‘Granny Line’ is a formation constructed of three or more Grannies. The art to this formation is self-initiation – Grannies within a bus stop congealing together as they arrive to form the renowned ‘Granny Line Formation’.The purpose of this formation varies upon preference. Some Grannies may form the line to have a good old natter about their day while others may join the line as a defensive strategy finding safety in numbers.
G r a n n y L i n e F o r m a t i o n
A common connection with the ‘Granny Line’ is the ‘Young Mums’ species, a connection in which the ‘Granny Line’ will overpower the mother in order to squeeze the young offspring’s cheeks to obtain youthful energy – Note that this is not an attack sequence, but a reminiscent act – reliving their youth – and should be handled with politeness if approached.
A frequent o c c u p i e r of bus stops (mainly within the council estate regions), The “Rules Don’t Apply Guy” is a persona of intimidation as well as being imbecilic in nature. They may apply a laid-back stance to their posture, taking a careless disregard for public order. Examples of this behaviour can be seen here as the male smokes within the bus shelter with a visible care-free demeanour.
If approached this breed will commonly rebel, holding their ground in what they feel is a valid act of rebellion.Should you witness the “Rules Don’t Apply Guy” on your next journey be sure to stand your ground and shun them from your territory.
