A nut-job! The mathematicians among you will easily recognise this large number as two undecillion. That’s right, I know my -illions! We also know that this is a total waste of any court’s time.
Anton Purisima filed his two undecillion dollar lawsuit (that’s $2,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000) last month, after his middle finger was supposedly bitten and infected by a “rabies-infected” dog on a city bus. A “Chinese couple” took photos of him without asking, Gothamist reports, and he’s routinely overcharged for coffee at LaGuardia Airport. (This is apparently related to the dog bite.) [Time]
Anton seems to have a history of being a bit dramatic when it comes to his gripes with banks, municipalities, governments etc. But this one seriously takes the cake. A piece of advice Anton: if a dog bites you on the bus and you must sue someone, make up a better story.
This is frivolity on the most obscene scale imaginable.
The most terrifying part is that there are actually people on this planet like this guy.
We’re pretty sure he would be the life of any party.
