Maybe Why Me isn't poor like you.

If that is true, why is he complaining about the cost? Cabs are no more expensive in London than any capital city. They are regulated and licensed.

Cabs no, and in the subway he's referring to the homeless, not the subway riders. There are homeless people everywhere, and quite honestly I have never had a problem with bad aromas on the Tube, not even from passing by the odd homeless person. The Tube might not be the most modern of undergrounds but it is efficient and reasonably priced, and it you don't like it, you can take a bus, there are hundreds of those too. I have never, ever needed a cab in London.

Oh no...it's the subway riders. Brits don't shower as often as we do here, and they wear them smelly sweaters. And when you don't know their money...the cabies hose you big time.

"I want to take this opportunity to mention how thankful I am for an Obama re-election. The choice was clear. We cannot live in a country that treats homosexuals and women as second class citizens. Homosexuals deserve all of the rights and benefits of marriage that heterosexuals receive. Women deserve to be treated with respect and their salaries should not depend on their gender, but their quality of work. I am also thankful that the great, progressive state of California once again voted for the correct President. America is moving forward, and the direction is a positive one."

Same reason the rich whine about the taxes they pay. They didn't get rich by simply rolling over and accepting a rip off.

:lol: Right, the Brits are dirty. Of course they are and they don't know how to wash woolens.

As to being ripped off, maybe they just didn't like you personally?

Right of course. I don't care, hate on London as much as you like. I love the city, it's fabulous.

Good for you. Now if only you could do something about that knee jerk resentment towards people who win at life. There is no nobility in poverty.

It's being raised in a slum that does it govner, that chip on me shoulder, well, it's right hard to shift, like a grass stain, only worse.

There's a few things to not like in Londonstan. Like the rip off cabies, or the people in the subways that smell like they haven't seen warm water and a bar of soap in years, or the over priced hookers in Picadilly.

Guess you'll just have to go back to Belarus then for hookers you can afford!

Our journey together on this earth has come to an end.

I will see you one day again, my love.

You could learn a lot from a guy like Why Me.

Mebbe I could, but I'll take me chances thank you. We might be poor, but we still have our pride.

I think cabs are far cheaper in London than other major cities. And they are the best drivers in the world. When we are in London (two weeks from now) I plan on taking a cab ride whether I need one or not. It's a hella experience!

When you don't know their money? What the heck?? It's not hard you know. There are big numbers on the notes. And if your pants want to fall off, you know you've got a bunch of 1 pound coins in yer pocket. Your pocket change can be real money in Great Britain!

I will see you one day again, my love.
