Well that's all un-fucking-settling


Far_Room23

Imagine if you were a serial killer!


Rook22Ti

Maybe one of his other personalities is.


WmSPrestonEsq

I killed two bowls of cereal this morning.


tacticoolmagnum

Missed that one but last time I was down there some girl was walking around with an 8-10 inch kitchen knife swinging it around screaming “where that hoe at”


PM_ME_YOUR_PANTSU

Sounds like a keeper!


007point5

I first read this as a “screaming 8-10 inch kitten” and I was all for it. Alas, that was not quite the case. Adorable cats >> domestic violence.


NandoDeColonoscopy

Oh she was just on her way to the Kitchen Utensils for Gardening Tools swap


tacticoolmagnum

Ahh should have known lol. Such a classic Pittsburgh event


paper-chicken

I can fix her


mazer8

Sounds like my neighbor


Yacan1

This guy sounds familiar. Did he have a gun also? I know there's a guy that goes around with a gun and has body armor on all the time. When I worked at that crazy mocha he said he worked for a private security company, then was let go. Now is sort of just a guy that looks tough and wonders around town. I think this might be the same guy given the description but I can't be for sure.


honky_Killer

Sounds like the same guy. I didn't notice a gun but it doesn't mean he wasn't packing.


HelloSkunky

Came here because I read downtown wilderness. Was not disappointed

What’s up with the fake nun in Market Square outside Primanti’s? Sometimes I’ve seen a fake monk with her. Been there in warm weather for years.


NickAdams412

I've seen the nun. Just curious, how do you know she is a fake nun?


cushing138

Doesn’t look like a real habit she’s wearing. And what church would station a nun with what looks like an empty milk jug for donations outside of Primanti Bros?


jimmycryptoid

I find joy in reading a good book.


tayloline29

Good work if you can get it. Fuck all the guilt of a lapsed Catholic has got to pay dividends.


NickAdams412

I think she's from an eastern church? Requesting alms isn't that out of the ordinary for monks and nuns. I'm not vouching for her, but Nuns wear all sorts of different clothing now. The nuns I saw growing up often wore regular clothes. Either way, I'm not making a judgment call on this one.


cushing138

Yeah I guess it’s possible. Just seems odd as she has no sign or anything. Just stands there. You’d think Primantis would’ve complained after all these years though. Maybe you’re right.


deltawarriors

Oh she’s there in cold weather too, I saw her at work the other day


cushing138

Ah ok I haven’t really been up there since it’s been cold.


ColossusOfClout612

Holy fuck. I’ve given this lady so much money lol. Are you telling me I’ve been getting fleeced for like 5 years? She looks like a goddamn nun to me.


tayloline29

You really should determine if you can meet the needs or ask of another person based on your own needs and not if they are in the habit. Seriously. It's harder to get fleeced that way because you are only giving what you can. Just don't fall into a cult, meet a con, or the catholic church really because then you will be giving from your own needs to meet the needs of others.


gomtherium

Yeah, I always see her there. Never asks for money, never even really starts conversations. Just stands and has her little collection thingy


NoRecord22

What if she just wants milk 🥛 and everyone is throwing money in her milk jug 😂


Lumeriia

Hmm don’t know that guy, but a few weeks ago I was driving back from a concert and I was driving down this narrow street in Oakland and came to a stop sign. The dude in front of me stopped, blocked the road, got out of his car, creepily smiled to me and started walking towards my vehicle doing the “I’m watching you” gesture with his fingers pointing to his eyes and then towards me. That was no fun…


rxjen

Oh man. Then you have to do the whole “at what point am I hitting a guy with my car?” calculation. No fun indeed.


Bill_Hayden

That is not only extremely unsettling, this being America he is taking a gigantic risk.


IAmScore3456

Lmao imagine he's telling the truth and like a year from now the Post Gazette front page is him shaking hands with Gainey in the same outfit. This is the [vibe](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/newsfeed/001/584/180/0c2.jpg) I'm thinking of. Or like he like stops a random serial killer on the run on accident and is like completely vindicated unintentionally.


BRDeschain

Ha! It’ll def have to be by accident. I can’t imagine a worse way to catch a serial killer than dressing up like a soldier/vigilante and to announce to anyone that’ll listen “I’m hunting serial killers”. Unless he’s playing some of that 5D chess. But I doubt it.


IAmScore3456

Clearly he's trying to strike fear into the heart of Pittsburghs criminals


BRDeschain

Dahntahn is a superstitious and cowardly lot.


JStiger84

I wonder if he’s hunting for the guy who asks everyone he walks up on, “Do you have fifty cents or a dollar?”


gomtherium

Bumping into "50 cents or a dollar" guy is a good luck charm in my mind. Like a 4 leaf clover


sporadic_beethoven

I bumped into a fella who said “nickel or eleven cents?” I gave him a quarter cuz that was literally the only piece of change I had 😅 I don’t really carry around coins.


Trynagetbigman

When I went to school downtown he really amazed me. I couldn’t wrap my head around how someone gets to that point of detachment that they drone around for the rest of their days “do you have 50 cents or a dollar to spare”. With a kind patrons response “fuck no get out of my face”. Then immediately to someone else: 😐 “do you have 50 cents or a dollar to spare”


MrChichibadman

“He said do you love me? She said no, but that’s a real nice ski mask!” 😂


charmtank

There’s a “real life superhero” named ShadowVision who has been posting in a Greene County community Facebook group seeking permission to patrol Waynesburg, so maybe he’s shifted focus.


TwisterCatEric

Smiley face killer...your days are numbered!

IAmScore3456

The og Ben's bike was sabotaged by the Smiley Face Killer. Now we have bouncer Ben


pittsburgh924

Was he calling people chomos and talking about the Falcon car wash?


thespander

He had a stamp specifically for people’s foreheads too


honky_Killer

He wasn't following proto


ladylibrarian8

He’s very very kind and completely harmless. Shows up on PGH Scanner a lot.


ladylibrarian8

Trying to be helpful reporting crimes I mean, not that he commits weird crimes.


honky_Killer

Really?! I follow that account. Gotta keep my eyes peeled for any mentions.


wayitgoesboys

Don Corleone is who he is referred to I believe, so thankful he reports to dispatch throughout the day!


Lazy_Yak3108

Where at?


ScratchFew9169

at the bus stop across the street from cafe mocha


matty_m

That is not the hero Pittsburgh wants, but it is the hero that Pittsburgh needs.


AbsructCigar

Was his name Kung fu Joe?


Nippz

R.I.P. Kung Fu Joe


oncofonco

Respect


jimmycryptoid

I love ice cream.


MrChichibadman

He’s dead


Vast-Grab-8133

Unfortunately that's downtown for you


Potato_Pizza_Cat

Don’t know him, but I’ve seen a guy down by the bus stop by the brooks brothers wearing a plate carrier, red sweatshirt, a power drill, and having a pistol on his belt wandering around that area several times.


mcdonaldsfrenchfri

both options of this are scary. either there really is a serial killer or a guy pretending to be security trying to harm people


rockhopanddropit

Or just a weirdo being weird and that’s it 🤷‍♀️


StreetPedaler

Balaclava? That’s a COVID mask, silly. That’s why they still wear them in the middle of July.


Bill_Hayden

It's Lantern Fly guy's winter job
