Elderly man given seat snaps at bus commuter

my paper

STOMP contributor William sent in a video of an elderly man who was offered a seat on a bus and who responded by telling the person who offered him a seat to "shut up".

William said that he recorded the video on bus 174, which was travelling towards the city, on Sunday afternoon.

He recounted: "The old man was perched on the headrest dangerously and was bad mouthing Singaporeans in general to a foreigner (a Caucasian) when I boarded the bus."

Then, "a man offered him a seat politely and the old man shouted at him to mind his own business and (told him) to shut up".
