This happened in Toronto, all over the news and my feeds.

VIDEO of incident

After a “douchebag” in a bowler hat was photographed taking up two seats on a crowded bus — and allegedly assaulted a woman who tried to stop him — thousands of Torontonians have joined an online hunt to track him down.

In a matter of hours, the search for the “leprechaun,” as he has been dubbed because of his green dress shirt and tuft of chin beard, had become one of the most high-profile examples of using social media to shame violators of TTC etiquette.

Worse part about this is no one stands up for other honest folk anymore. There have been at least 3 occasions where I've stood up for a person in public and shamed an individual for being pieces of shit towards someone else (one got a little physical even) and practically got a standing ovation from folks around us.

Sadly most people have that passers-by syndrome with most taking out their damn cellphones (case in point here lol) to film. Unfortunate.
 
Not going to lie, I am feeling the shirt and even the hat.
But what a shit bubble, love that he will be all over and get shit for being a pig of a fleshbag.
 
I feel sorry for her, leprechauns are known assholes but this imbecile takes the cake. Deserved a big bloke yanking his arse out of the bus with one hand
 
Yeah, kinda sad how no one defended the lady (I think, not sure) but everyone will destroy the guy online.

Still, that kinda thing would make my blood boil for sure. Wonder what will happen when they find the dude.

The guy who filmed it and submitted the footage to the news said that he couldn't get involved in the confrontation because if it escalated he could risk getting deported.
 
"At the time I didn’t feel like standing around Pape station … for a pair of cops who would most likely be dicks and make me feel like I’m wasting their time,” she said when asked why she had not filed an assault report..
She had been assaulted and thought the police would be dicks about it and make her feel like she was wasting their time?, I can't quite get my head around this bit at all.

I hope the guy is found, AND i hope he gets charged with assault.
 
Probably not too uncommon an incident on the TTC.

I'll see people get worked up about someone not offering their seat to them because they need to sit down, or something along those lines, but I've never seen physical assault come from that. The guy took it too far.

I'm not one who basks in the glory of tiny victories, but I've offered my seat to people who need it more than I do.

Bullshit. If he couldn't afford to be involved, he wouldn't have been standing in the open filming the whole thing.

Cops do not enjoy the best reputation as of late.

Hold on...did my man drop the Charlie and Chocolate factory you get nothing on her?

I'm also curious if he indulges in the internet.
 
That guy looks tall. I'm sorry, but one of the most important qualifications for leprechaunhood is their diminutive stature. I'm not convinced.

Ok Sherlock, how on earth did you come to that conclusion?

And I fucking hate douches on public transport. I enjoy making their trip as miserable as possible whenever I get the chance.

You seem awfully certain of all the circumstances, you must have been there, right? You couldn't possibly be talking out of your arse.
 
Bullshit. If he couldn't afford to be involved, he wouldn't have been standing in the open filming the whole thing.

so you're saying that he shouldn't have filmed it? what's the problem with filming shitty people acting shitty

He still helped her out by filming the incident as evidence.

I would have kicked his ass. It's sad that everyone else is too afraid, timid, and weak to do what I do.

just look at him, a green shit looking tiny ass imbecile, you don't need to be a muay thay master to teach him some manners

IRL translation:

I totally would've done something, but damn this bus is packed and totally didn't have the room to engage in fisticuffs!

I need to be free! Like a peacock!

im not sure if i would want to get involved either. im afraid that if i touch him i would get the douche. i mean, look at him, hes covered in douche. its everywhere
edit: upon further inspection it seems like the only nondouche thing is the fact that hes wearing headphones. but i think thats because if he were to use his phones speakers the amount of douche would be so much that he would collapse in on himself creating a douche hole that would swallow up all shitty hats and ugly shirts in a five mile radius
 
Honestly, girl should have just walked away once he said "no, my bag is there". It's not worth getting hurt trying to dealing with mentally/emotionally unbalanced strangers.

Unfortunately, it's situations like this that can turn the bad guy into the victim. Personally, I'd stay out of it (getting physical about it).

So they're arguing over a spot to sit in, and a bag..Big deal...Leprechaun crosses the line and commits assault...Great..Get a cop and end this..But if you step in and "teach him some manners", what are you gonna do? Punch him? Knock him unconscious? Break his computer?

You know what I mean..Pretty soon, you're looking at getting a lawyer to cover your own ass over destruction of property and assault...And yes...this is how our justice system works (at least in the US)...doesn't matter whether you claim you were provoked or she had her foot stepped on...They'll claim it's excessive and win or lose you got a record, plus the cost of a lawyer. So yeah, considering the nature of this incident, staying out of it, other than calling the cops, is probably the best idea.
 
Guy even looks like a dickbag douche-nozzle. Love his leather studded wrist-flair and devil-may-care style of dress with his oh so deliberately unbuttoned and unfurled cuffs and collar. Oh yeah and nice fucking hat too. Perfectly matches his sneakers.

Honestly after he stomps on my foot, I might just have to throw his bag across the bus, because the act of war has already been committed. No excuses can be made not to have it out with this guy at that point, but yeah lets pick on some woman.

I wish she had opened his bag and it was full of lucky charms.

maybe that's why he was such a little shit. Carefully guarding a cup-cake sized pot of gold hidden in his man-purse. I could see him losing sight of civility in that case.


for real though, that hat is begging to be flipped and that beard is screaming to be yanked.
(this is America though, maybe that rudeness is allowed in Canada, but down here, dude would have ended up in the news over a brawl.)
 
I find it odd that he hasn't been found out by now. A dude who looks like that is known, especially if he's an asshole. "You mean that chin-bearded prick who wears that bowler hat? Hell, yes, I know who he is!"

I get that he looks stupid, but your attitude isn't exactly a good example either.
 
"I'm the type of guy who's on his way to buy a 600 dollar coffee grinder, and look at the gamma on this shirt. Girl, please."
 
Hey, if you stomp on my foot after I politely ask you to open up a seat, you're the one asking for trouble, not me.

edit: what the fuck is wrong with my attitude?

The video doesn't show him pushing or stomping. Your post makes it seem like you want to kick his ass just for the way he dresses/looks.

No, I actually would like it. But his actions have made his minty freshness taste and smell of soul-rot. That kind of thing rubs me the wrong way.
Also I usually don't watch videos unless there is sexyness involved. I just read the post in the OP.

Everything is wrong with your attitude.

I wanna see the receipts. Are you a bowler wearing, goatee'd fuckboy?
