I laughed way to hard for some of the comments.
This thread reminded me of something that happened many years ago. I used the word guy too much. So change person 1: Crazy Dude/Bug Eyed Dude and person 2: Guy for the Bystander.
Years ago in the 90s, I was in a train going to Mitchell's Plain, when this "bug-eyed" dude start bugging out, he started looking for trouble, at first I wanted to ask what was his problem, but decided not to say anything. Another guy decided to tell him off (cannot recall exactly what he (crazy dude) did to the Guy) anyway he (crazy dude) pulls out a gun, point it at the Guy and then proceeds to put the gun in the Guy's mouth. The aunties/taanies started to panic and were shouting and trying to go to another carriage and then the Crazy Dude with the gun pulls out his badge and tell them they should not worry as he is a policeman. He looked crazy enough to have pulled the trigger. I think the aunties shouting jolted him out of his flashback or whatever he was going through. The other guy had a lucky break.
