The smartest kid on the short bus

A metaphor for being the best at something that's unimportant or unimpressive. For example: The fastest pitcher who lives at a nursing home is like being the smartest kid on the short bus.

It comes from the special bus designated for retarded people commonly being shorter than the others.

Zack: I'm the best guitar player in town
Me: Whatever, that's like being the smartest kid on the short bus

riding the bus

A synonym to being high. You can be extremely blazed, or not so much. "Riding the bus" is a good code sentence to talk about being high around people. Look up: "going to catch the bus" which means- to buy drugs.

Dude, I was riding the bus the other day and I thought I was flying!

First Bus

A UK public transport company who provide the worse public transport service in the known universe and treat their staff little better than slaves.

I wouldn't work for first bus if they tripled the pay. (which would still be fuck all)
