A man has been left angry and confused after discovering a padlock had been attached to his ear stretcher. The man, who goes by the name Tom Grim Fandango Matthews on Social media, said he was having a bre-ak at work and heard a click as an unknown person approached him from behind and locked a padlock through his ear. He was not sure who had supplied his new earring when he posted his bizarre story online – only to be r!dic-uled by his friends over the incident.
He wrote on Facebook ‘So guess what some little w*** stain just did to me if I find you I will put you 6 feet under the end of rant c*** [sic]’, with a photo of the padlock dangling from his ear. It prompted one friend to inquire: ‘Can I just ask how you didn’t notice someone about with your ear?’. An irate Mr. Matthews responded: ‘Literally having a fag outback literally they came out heard a click turned round realized there was a padlock on my ear and tried to chase me’.
No-one seemed to have much sympathy for the hapless man – the majority just laughed at his plight and despite Mr. Matthews’ obvious anger at the situation – and threats towards the perpetrators -others just seemed to be enjoying it. Some even chimed in with suggestions for him. One man wrote: ‘Get yourself to the DIY shop and give me a fiver to cut it off. After they’ve stopped taking pictures and themselves of course’. Another said: ‘I can pick locks, £10 an hour tho! [sic]’.
While a hilarious mate said: ‘Ear you should be locked up looking like that! Others simply said they’d like to congratulate whoever attached the padlock Mr. Matthews later commented – after re-it-erating how mad he was – that he was ‘so glad old boy lived up the road and had bolt cutters’. Since Mr. Matthews, who appears to be from the United Kingdom, made the post on February 29, it has had nearly 9,000 interactions on social media, and nearly 2,000 shares – showing there are a lot of people taking interest in his situation.
Daily Mail Australia has attempted to contact Mr. Matthews for comment.
