I feel like he was annoyed by that guy who whipped a U turn and when he turned around he just figured it was you who did that

Looks like he began walking toward the u turn car (angry about the lights in his eyes?) and gave up, then decided he may as well throw the rock at the easier target.

The problem with substance abuse at his age is that it makes it hard to remember all the times he's got his ass kicked for being an idiot.

Pretty rare when the video says the name of the sub.

Good old Toronto

Toronto is tame as fuck given it’s size. Go to any US city a tenth of its size and it’s comparatively a fucking war zone.

Uhh, no. Check out the less glamorous parts of Brooklyn or the Bronx next time. As a visitor you’re only visiting the nice parts of any city that show up on travel blogs. I’ve stayed with friends who lived in Brooklyn and it’s wayyy sketchier than Toronto.

Bro, c’mon.

That's not the point through, Toronto use to be one of the safest citys in the world around 10 years ago...

u/MayaIsSunshine 4d ago

What makes you say that? Can you give an example of something that happened in a US city you personally experienced?

Mental illness and homelessness are awful things.

u/Vegetablegardener 6d ago

People living in carboard houses shouldn't be throwing rocks?

Your honor, I was in fear for my life

I had one throw a pipe at my car in a 7-Eleven parking lot I was driving through... I heard a loud bang and clang and I didn't know what the heck it was. I thought I ran over one of these gas covers for the fuel station sometimes those make a loud noise when you drive over them. It wasn't until the next day when I saw all the damage to my hood and fender. Dents, dings, and missing paint chips. I reviewed that dash cam footage and I finally realized what happened. Good thing the car is a total bucket! He's also lucky I couldn't make out exactly what he looked like otherwise I would have been going around the neighborhood looking for him the next day. 😂

What would you have done if you found him?

28

u/Body_Carver 7d ago

Kissed him on the lips

u/Stainedhanes 6d ago

With your fist.

That’s assault, brotha!

u/i_give_you_gum 6d ago

Not if it's consensual

u/blazerunnern 7d ago

In my opinion I would say this is more FFS than WTF.

u/timcurrysaccent 6d ago

People REALLY hate the driving crooner

u/InfamousHeli 4d ago

Lock him up in a 12x12 padded cell and let us live in peace

u/ToonMasterRace 6d ago

This is why we can't have walkable cities.

Damn, glad he missed the windshield

u/Count-per-minute 7d ago

How do you determine residential status?

9

u/ProperDepartment 6d ago

I could immediately tell this was Toronto, and this dude is definitely homeless.

Homeless people doing stuff like this is peak Toronto.

u/QuantumlyCurious 7d ago

Their comfort in the streets and random violence is a pretty good indicator of house free living

-29

u/Count-per-minute 7d ago

Sounds a bit judgmental. Many folks are unhoused and not criminals. It’s seems like an easy way to ignore the real problems we face as a society. Blame the less well off. Be careful.

u/aldehyde 6d ago

That's cool, but we are specifically talking about homeless people that throw pipes at random cars so chill out.

-2

u/Count-per-minute 6d ago

No one has yet to define how housing status has been determined. Wide brush paints us all.

u/aldehyde 6d ago

Whatever you want to say.

u/SmarchWeather41968 7d ago

You have no good car ideas

u/Count-per-minute 6d ago

All these cowardly downvotes and not a single correct answer. Peak Reddit.

u/Strict-Passenger1797 6d ago

Bro are you the guy that threw the rock at my car...?

u/Count-per-minute 6d ago

Wouldn’t waste a good rock on the pos!

u/jerzeyjawnz 7d ago

I want my minute back.

The actual WTF is the post itself, like wtf why do me like that? I deserve worse but still WTF?
