Bart's People: This Guy

Life, Randomness

wtfThere are so many things going on with this guy that I couldn’t even find one specific thing to comment on. I woke up on the metro and just saw him wobbling there like a lumbering beast. First there’s this giant tent of a coat that he’s wearing that makes his arms seem about a foot too short. But on top of that he’s carrying the worlds smallest duffel bag which makes him seem even bigger. As if that wasn’t enough he’s listening to music on a set of headphones with a microphone attached. At any moment he could be radioing the tower to make sure the runway’s clear to land.

I don’t know where he came from or where he went, but here’s to you “Giant Weird Guy”!

Mr TurkeyneckI don’t know what it is about people on the Metro recently, but they’re becoming more interesting all the time. I wish I had a better camera… and also that it wasn’t considered weird to take pictures of strangers. Because I saw a guy in starbucks the other day who looked just like the kid from “The Boondocks” and a girl on the Metro platform last night that could have been “Rogue” from the X-men, if she was black. She had a white Harry Potter birthmark and a white streak in the front of her hair.

But I digress, the person I want to talk about is this fellow I saw on the way home the other day. He looks like a caricature. If you saw this guy in a serious movie you would think “now that’s over the top, that just totally ruins the reality of it.” I mean come on he looks like a taller version of Wimpy from Popeye!? The fact that he dosen’t have much of a neck makes him look like a giant finger puppet, his head being the thumb. I hope he’s a good guy, I just think he looks like a cartoon.

SwitchTheres something strange about a short fat bald man using a 17 inch Powerbook on the metro. Its something in the juxtaposition of the beauty and the beast. This guy should be using an old laptop. Not even a good brand, something like Compaq. He’s wearing a blue polo shirt that emphasizes his supple man meat, faded kakhis with cuffed legs, and old brown leather shoes. I can’t see what he’s doing over there , probably just watching a DVD. This seems like the kind of guy who would spend 3500 on a laptop just to use it as a portable DVD player. All I’m saying is that he’s definatley not the “Mac Guy” from the commercials.

Later!
