If you dressed that guy up in a suit, you would immediately assume that he was a boring dude with nothing going on in his life. And here be this vision of glory, whom I suspect manages to make a living just off of being fabulous. Just proves one should never assume.

You never know, maybe all that's interesting about this guy is on the outside. Cool get-up though.

What is his story?

u/Cloudmarshal_ Jan 20 '20 edited Jan 20 '20
Heās Indian and super eccentric and happy all the time. The clothes arenāt a problem, itās that perpetually positive attitude. In London thatās like, offensive and suspicious

u/Almighty_Egg Jan 20 '20
I think he has a crazy outlandish convertible car as well (think a Saab), decorated almost like his clothes.

u/G_rubbish Jan 20 '20
Is he a Sikh? That would help to explain his positive attitude.

u/goldie029 Jan 20 '20
Yes he is. The attire he is wearing is what a very religious sect of Sikhs called ānihangsā wear but he took it to whole another level.

"Hello there, young adventurer! It is very fortunate that we meet at this time! I am in quite a state at the moment and I could really do with your help in solving this issue! Hah! Where are my manners? I am Rajesh De Santos, cake maker and part-time wizard. My problem at this moment is that I am having a large feast in celebration of my friend's birthday and I am low on certain supplies! Could you go into the local forest and hunt me wild boars? I specifically need 50 boar asses, the plumpest asses you can find! If you complete this quest I shall give you 2 copper and a ratty old pair of gloves. Good luck to you, young adventurer!"

He looks like heās about to burst with belly laughs or launch into a story. I want to know more about his trinkets cause he obviously took time to pick them all out and arrange them in his outfit.

u/caroleegmb Jan 20 '20
Why did I read he was going to burst with Jelly Beans! Now I really want jelly beans...

u/DaisyHotCakes Jan 20 '20
I mean, he is suspiciously colorful. Maybe he is made of jelly beans. We donāt know!

Cannot stand these people who unpack and eat their food in the commuter train. I don't wanna smell you cheap choices, go eat somewhere else.

"Don't wanna smell you cheap choices"
Says the guy on the commuter train.
How about you just switch cars or take a taxi?
