"I was making a funny noise people were honestly crying laughing at," he claimed in the caption of a followup video. "She was the only person annoyed."

And then everyone clapped at the noises he was making, all the way to the next stop, and then President Obama got on the train at the next stop and gave him the Medal of Freedom for his bravery and letting the woman sit down.

Seriously did this motherfucker just move to the city, that he thinks anyone will believe that bullshit?

I'm willing to bet the crying laughter from people around him came after his glasses got snatched off his face and snapped.

Classic bully behaviour. Provoke someone until they react, play the victim.

It’s amazing how often I see this in adults. I’m so disappointed with the world.

The name of one of the passengers? Albert Einstein.
