back to article US bus passenger cracks one off for three hours

A passenger aboard a Megabus service to Coralville, Iowa, was cuffed on arrival on Sunday after cracking one off for three hours in the mistaken belief that a female fellow traveller appreciated his marathon five-knuckle shuffle.

        Hmm, I don't think you understand porn. Sounds less interesting than the average 'watch paint dry' film to me.

        You're a consumer, not a producer, aren't you?

        Time is money in porn, as in every other commercial enterprise - the quicker you come up with the goods, so to speak, and get to the 'money shot', the less the producer has to pay for crew, electricity, the location, etc. and the quicker they can start the next production.

        The rest can be made up with previously recorded material and/or cheaper 'actors' whose faces needn't be seen for the close-up gnarly.

        So guys who come quickly are in demand, not guys who take forever to get the job done.

    What muppet thinks this kind of behaviour is acceptable? Maybe they ought to start enforcing tougher penalties. Such as castration. That should make the pervs think twice :D

      What sort of muppet sits there for three hours without complaining? While the accused shouldn't have started in the first place he might actually have some mitigation in his claim that he thought she was enjoying it.

      I'm surprised at his managing a three hour wank. I usually pass out after two.

        Well, I sat through this in its entirety without pressing charges.

        So you have a man who has already started with at least lewd conduct and probably indecent exposure, presumably already acknowledged in some way the woman who was supposedly "enjoying" it and it will never cross the mind of the woman that he is some deranged and quite possibly dangerous rapist fantasizing about her. He doesn't have a defence there: even if if the unlikely event she had explicitly instigated the action by asking "Excuse me, can I watch you have a wank" his actions would still be criminal in pretty much any jurisdiction.

          "would still be criminal in pretty much any jurisdiction."

          True, but was this woman so terrified that she sat there immobile for three whole hours without complaining to the driver?

            It's the USA of A, maybe he had a gun in his pocket

            He was clearly nuts, and she didn't want to do anything to escalate it. A valid approach in the circumstances.

        okay then

        First, sometimes the humans are shocked by lewd behavior - and an honest reaction to shock is uncomfortable inaction especially when the options of action are not clearly a solution. Many humans (and other mammals, for sure) who are harassed end up with debilitating stress reactions from the inability to have an appropriate reaction at the time of the original harassment. PTSD. Also, the females of the humans sometimes experience a reaction to their complaints of sexual harassment from the other humans and many of the pods which is basically to "blame the victim." We can see here that it is a true concern. He's wanking in front of her. She can realistically be concerned of what other weird, insane sh*t he is capable of doing. And also, maybe she paid money to get someplace in 3 hours. Maybe she couldn't move seats because the g--damned bus was full. And who is she really going to complain too? "Excuse me driver, could you stop the driver of this bus from wanking in front of me?" The situation is a perfect example of how a creepo in a position of power and (temporary) immunity gets jollies by not just wanking but by enjoying his distorted perception of her reaction.

          "Excuse me driver, could you stop the driver of this bus from wanking in front of me?"

          That's pretty much what I was thinking, yes. Maybe the US is different, but most UK long haul coaches have toilets and tea/coffee/snack facilities. There are plenty of reasons why people get up and wander around a bit, so using that as an excuse to report his actions to the driver who can then phone the police and arrange to meet a police car at the next services or junction down the road seems to be perfectly reasonable course of action.

        No, it can't be SCSI, because they would all be firing at the same time as each other, presumably you mean USB where they fire one after the other

      Surely we (ahem) come to El Reg for things like the excellently chosen article picture. And of course, the sense to inform us that the arrest took place in the perfectly named Johnson County. Unless the Americans have a town called Todger Springs...

      Does Lester ever write sensible articles?

        They might not have a "Todger Springs", but there is a "Gobbler's

        Knob", in Pennsylvania!

        It's where the annual groundhog event takes place.
