Dick-Nose is a revenge story which took a turn that I was not expecting. But it’s a Matt Shaw book so anything goes right?

There’s this man-bun prick on the train who is mouthing off and asking if he is invisible because people keep knocking him.
The thing is, the dumb cunt literally has his legs in the aisle and is expecting people to step over him.
I’d like someone to leg stamp him.
