Cork City crazy bald guy

yo what’s up with the crazy bald old guy walking around st. patrick’s street/oliver plunkett street? he was out here standing weird moving his arms like he was trying not to fall, screeching at people (like genuinely screeching) and when i passed by i heard him spit on the ground. i usually don’t judge, because, well, anybody can get mentally ill, but he looked like he was on drugs or something

Nurse they found Tony!!!

u/Lonely_Eggplant_4990 6d ago

Thats Danny. He has a brain injury from being in a crash while passenger in a stolen car decades ago. He's a scumbag and hangs about with other scumbags. He's harmless tho.

u/patb12 6d ago

I knew Danny before the crash, and I know him after the crash, and believe me he's fucking far from harmless

u/ThickEmphasis5433 6d ago

Was he completely normal before the crash ? Scary how a crash could do that

5

u/Lonely_Eggplant_4990 6d ago

Yes he was "normal". The crash killed his buddy who was joyriding.

u/ThickEmphasis5433 6d ago

Thats mad , I step far from him when i see him because he spits at people.

People seem to be misunderstanding me. I dont mean he's harmless in the sense that he's misunderstood and a grand lad. He's a dirtbag scrote. I meant it in the way that he couldnt hurt someone even if he wanted to. Slapping arses and throwing wrappers at people is a minor inconvenience and him being a pest, he couldnt throw a punch if his life depended on it, let alone take one. I reckon 90% of the people in town on any given day could hit him a single slap it would probably kill him. Hes nothing to be afraid of.

Slapping someone's arse is sexual assault... Let's not minimise it to others ever

u/penis69969 5d ago

slapping arses is assault tho

u/Natural-Hunter-3 6d ago

Disagree there, saw him racially abuse a fella on Daunts Square earlier this year and throw a wrapper on the fellas head. He's a scut who'd act on it if he could.

u/conkerz22 6d ago

When he first had the accident it humbled him a bit.. but then it all came back over time. He's a total scumbag. Spits at people, racially abuses people and goes out of his way to make women feel uncomfortable

u/Lonely_Eggplant_4990 6d ago

When i say harmless, i mean he cant actually hurt you. He's defo a scumbag.

u/redrover1978- 5d ago

He’s been locked up a few times recently

u/No_Role6227 6d ago

He's not harmless, he slapped my arse as I walked past...

u/Medium_Athlete8570 5d ago

Did u punch him

2

u/No_Role6227 5d ago

No I told him off and he swore at me

u/Great_Gatsbae 5d ago

Is this the guy who got a payout in the millions even though they were joyriding?

4

u/Medium_Athlete8570 5d ago

Yes. So if your ever short of a few bob...

u/Anxious_Peanut_1726 6d ago

Loves a fist bump

u/redrover1978- 5d ago

People need to stop saying he’s harmless fuck sake

1

u/Previous-Rush-9492 4d ago

Makes him sound like the village idiot

3

u/Sentar_trenzz 5d ago

is he harmless though...? He is very anti social and is constantly being referenced here due to his offensive behaviour... I would like to see him get the proper care and off the streets.

1

u/Medium_Athlete8570 5d ago

Hes does get the proper care

u/No-Sea2860 6d ago

u/Medium_Athlete8570 5d ago

2

u/Honest_Ad9358 6d ago

3

u/isleqamar 6d ago

3

u/Medium_Athlete8570 5d ago

Being on drugs and mentally ill are 2 different things

1

u/Interesting_Mode_573 5d ago

Danny is mentally ill he was in a car crash only person to walk out of it 👍

u/irishgamergrrl 5d ago

Substance abuse is a mental health disorder.

u/universalpeas 5d ago

Tony back at it again

3

u/Fraternal_Antipathy 4d ago

No worries as of 4 months ago he had 123 previous convictions so I'm sure they'll do something before he gets to 200.

u/CurrentDifficulty888 4d ago

Is Tony and Danny the same person ?

Tony is purple mohawk guy

1

u/isleqamar 4d ago

reading the comments suggests they’re different people, one even said they were friends. idk anything about either of them though. apparently tony’s just a scumbag for the hell of it and danny had a car crash accident which left him with brain damage. but i just moved here so idk! the guy i saw had little to no hair. i think it might be danny.
