Most bus passengers are a miserable bunch. They whine and moan about
everything and anything, particularly if there is a delay of any sort.

The whining and
bitching and complaining at each stop as I picked up was unreal. "we've been
waiting 15 minutes for a bus and then 2 come at once etc"

Agreed. I've really never seen the point of grumbling at the driver of
the next bus, even less when (as I saw last week) it was a prolonged
rant at a driver on a different route/company, which only served to
propagate the delay further.
