After a long time, I had the "PLEASURE" of travelling with an absolute nitwit, in the evening bus today.
I was sitting in an aisle seat on the 2 seater side and 2 of my friends were seated in the adjacent 3 seater. So we 3 were chatting for a few minutes. Then this guy came up and occupied the 3rd seat on their side. Naturally, he was given the aisle seat there.
A few minutes after the bus started, I found my friend (who had moved to the dreaded middle seat) talking to this guy and there was a generic pointing of fingers towards their leg region. Only then I realised that this nincompoop was actually sitting with his legs crossed and the crossed leg was hitting my friend! Great start.
After 30 minutes or so, this dude started calling people on the phone. He must have called up around 15 people. Spoke to each of them in 3 languages - English, Hindi and Tamizh. Summary of the conversation in any language "This is my new number. Please note it down."
I was able to hear his conversation, in spite of me listening to radio at a decent volume. And believe it or not, few people in the aisle seats in front of me did start turning back.
But that didn't deter our hero. He went on and on. And then he got into a serious conversation with someone about how he didn't want people to think wrongly about him. That he has stayed away from all kinds of certification from people. That he didn't want to be tagged. etc. etc.
Basically, someone with major personality issues. And absolutely no awareness of people around him. The kind of people that God sends in my bus, solely to take instant revenge on me!

Mr. God actually sent him there for your entertainment. You missed the opportunity. Since he was giving everybody his new number out loud, all you needed to do was to go to the back of the bus, call him on that number and speak your heart out. (But after that you may have to switch the phone to silent).
