Twenty years ago spare change guy tried to grope me on a crowded train “oooh I want to touch”. And before I could even do anything a nice man stood in front of me and told him to back off. I was so wrecked I didn’t even say thank you to him. But thank you kind stranger.

Spare change guy was such a creep. A creep to the point that he was dangerous. Most people that didn’t know him just kind of laughed off his “got any change?” Routine.

You mean the one who used to hang around downtown Boston and yell, "ANY SPAAAAAAAAAARE CHAAAAAAAAANGE?' in a raspy voice?

I remember that guy. Was back downtown recently. Wondered what became of him.

I used to work at the Park Street Dunkin' (before they moved/renovated/left) and he would come in and try to harass the workers in there hardcore. Seeing him immediately set in nervousness.

Probably too young to know who you’re talking about, this was one guy?

https://youtu.be/-qmJqdFv8Ug This was the guy. I saw him one time repeatedly telling a woman that she had beautiful feet, and wouldn’t let it go. I had to go tell him to knock it off and stop accosting the woman.

I used to commute into South station everyday. Saw him every morning after getting off the bus. At the time everything was under construction so you had to walk in a wooden tunnel. He was there every morning. During Christmas season he’d be in there saying Merry Christmas over and over in an obnoxious way.

He’s dead now

Omg was he the guy with the hat and dark beard? Heavy set. Maybe blue jacket. South station? That was my time that I was writing the trains, back then.

Not the guy I was thinking of.

Both stories sound like subplots for The Town
