I saw this movie about a bus that had to speed around a city, keeping its speed over fifty, and if its speed dropped, it would explode!

I think it was called "The Bus That Couldn't Slow Down."

I saw a similar movie, as I recall. I think it was named "The bus with the cute but dippy driver". Or something like that.

I thought the movie was called Pop Quiz. I always thought it was a weird name for a movie about buses.

Are you people high on speed? It was called "The wheels on the bus go round and round, really fast"

If you mean more people are going to post on internet forums from the comfort of their own homes, you could be right. If you talking about folks actually physically doing anything, I think you already missed the Thanksgiving rebellion.

A totally different demographic rides the bus, and they are much more prone to violence.

If you want to start an RPG, just ask Mook to make you your own forum.

That is right because a fraction of a penny stamp tax was never the straw that broke the camel's back.

This sounds like a line from a rap song in the late 1700's.

It's only a small percentage of people who would be willing to act. Eh Starship troopers here we come.
