A Boy Refused To Move His Legs On A Subway. His Look When Someone Sat On Them Was Priceless

Kids these days, eh? Each generation seems to believe that when they were young, they were much more polite, wore cooler clothes, listened to better music, and were generally superior in every way to the bratty, entitled children of nowadays.

And you know what? It is true. There is nothing cool about tubby, rude and ignorant children raised in front of a screen, stuffed full of potato chips and entirely oblivious to social norms and basic human decency.

This is a massive generalization, of course. But after this incident, shared by Twitter user Isabel, you cannot help but feel a little upset by the lack of parenting. A bratty boy was sprawled out over two or three seats on the subway, zombified in front of his phone, while his guardian sat by, also away in her world.

Most people faced with this situation would possibly give a disapproving look, feel a bit annoyed by the injustice of it all and continue to stand, while the boy selfishly luxuriated on his personal couch. Not this hero, though. A young Elton John look-a-like, tired of still standing, showed up and was having none of it. “This lil ass— wouldn’t move his legs for three adults, so this guy comes and just SITS on his legs #mykidcouldnever,” Isabel tweeted along with a few pics and a short video of the incident.

The look on the kidspreader’s face after having his bubble burst is epic. He looks genuinely shocked at being called out for his arrogant behavior, and his guardian seemed to halfheartedly defend him without ever looking really concerned either way.

The guy got plenty of praise on Twitter after the post was shared over 47k times. People taking up more than their fair space on public transport truly seems to strike a nerve with the internet, and this hero is this latest to be lauded for his service to the rest of us.
