Connor Ratcliff, a U.S. comedian, had a bit of a rubbish day. He got stuck inside a train and then slowly started to lose his grip on reality.

Do not tell me your secrets because I would sell you all out to get off this train for even one minute

He then focused his attention on the cause of his stuck train.
So there was an umbrella stuck in the 3rd rail and so now I know who we have to track down its some guy with no umbrella let's go get him
— Connor Ratliff (@connorratliff) February 2, 2015
One million dollar bounty has been placed on the man with no umbrella
— Connor Ratliff (@connorratliff) February 2, 2015
For the rest of my days I will hunt the man with no umbrella I am also a man with no umbrella but still the hunt continues

He then decided to tweet a famous journalist to give him the "great scoop".

— Connor Ratliff (@connorratliff) February 2, 2015
And got a reply:
@connorratliff Is there more to the story than that? Not that I'm dismissive over the weightiness of your delays...

But that didn't stop him being really, really weird.

After about two hours the train was evacuated, but he decided to stay.
They evacuated my train car but the good news is I have a seat now and can sing as loud as I want
— Connor Ratliff (@connorratliff) February 2, 2015
Eventually he left, and it turned into an even worse day.
The good news is I just stepped in a puddle and got splashed by a cab and then LOST IT in front of a terrified old woman

But he refused to rest before tasting sweet, sweet vengeance.
Tracked down & murdered the umbrella that got stuck in the 3rd rail & now will hunt its owner until I have vengeance pic.twitter.com/Jkb02fDEGu
