    On the NYC subway a guy was taking up two seats, he pulls out a notebook and starts (screaming) reading from it. It was all about some conspiracy that got him kicked out of Columbia University. People started moving away from him. At the next stop a guy gets on the train and says to “hey psycho you really need two seats” the crazy guy slides over freeing up one of the seats and then goes back to yelling.

        If you were from, where I was from, you’d be fucking dead.

        It is entirely within Scouts character to just… “yo, knucklehead, scoot over”, and then just put on his headset when the screaming resumes.

        Though, being from Boston, and being exceptionally prideful… that may cause some issues on the NYC subway.
