The affectionate nickname given to the big yellow school buses servicing rural schools in South Australia, namely the 1250 route driven day in, day out by school teacher Mr. Blenkiron.
Seating positions on the Big Yellow Bitch correlates to one's level of coolness; senior students
sit towards the back in order to yell obscenities or throw unwanted
fruity projectiles out the
window at passing Cornerstone College students. Middle and
junior students sit in descending age order towards the driver. The further one sits towards the driver, the nerdier the
person.
Occupants of seats further of the emergency exit row are either year 8/9 students or extremely uncool. Eg. Paper Boy.
A source of great annoyance on the Big Yellow Bitch is having to share a seat with someone else, even if they are a friend. The
small distance in between rows necessitates sitting side-on so that
legs are not squashed. That, and the fact that the Big Yellow Bitch is guaranteed to break down at least once a year.
