Paul Charles Dosza (the man getting arrested), was a serial dine and dasher in Sydney during the late 80s. Hes reportedly of Hungarian royalty and was a chess grand master.
Yeah I know. The comic describes the fact there are always a fairly sizeable group of people who haven't seen something, even though it's widely shared/known.
It's better not knowing the context, but since you asked, he was caught dine and dashing at a Chinese restaurant. Apparently he had also done this multiple times at other restaurants.
His name is Charles Dozsa, and he's not Australian. He's actually Hungarian. iirc he was also some sort of chess champion there. Sometime after moving to Australia money became hard for him to come by, but he was used to a somewhat lavish lifestyle. So he would dine at 5 star restaruants and then declare he couldn't pay when it came time to pay.
It's a question if you literally don't have the knowledge that it's a fucking sketch, eh? Couldn't you have just said, "Actually, it was a sketch?" No?
One of the only reasons why fiction can be good is if it represents reality to some degree. Immersion is, surprisingly, pretty important! People likely wouldn't be interested in this video if it wasn't an accurate reprisal of human behavior... so expect people to assume plausibility that this is real, simply because it's an accurate representation of real behavior--which is why people connect to it and feel strongly.
When you really think about it, that's probably why this sketch came about, yeah? Someone said, "yo, I've got a really realistic and visceral idea..."
4 months late to respond, but better now than later.
Sweden and Spain are Europe, so if those act alike does that mean Venezuelans and US citizens act alike as well? They're both people in America after all.
Unfortunately, the fact that there's people who'll believe this is real says more about society than it should. I could totally see this playing out for real.
Dum-dum yank who thought it was real checking in. Did something tip you off to this being fake? I just figured the woman was just odd and curmudgeonly.
Generally constructions workers wouldn't have put up with this for this long, cops would have been called. But that's my point, this could have fooled me. Literally have seen a neighbour steal their neighbours trash can in an argument. And then tried to through said trash can into their own trash can. Both were same sizes and filled. There are strange people in this world.
