Eugene, Ore. (BN) — A loud confrontation took place Thursday evening near the downtown Eugene bus station, resulting from a near collision between a speeding motorist and a jaywalking pedestrian. Witnesses told Brimborion News that it all began when a homeless-looking young man toting a large, camping backpack began crossing the road without any regard for approaching traffic. After nearing, swerving, screeching to a halt and honking, a fraternity bro exited his car and began the following exchange, which was recorded by a passing bystander:

Frat Bro: Your wannabe, [expletive] homeless [expletive] needs to stay out of the [expletive] way if you know what’s good for you. Do you know who my dad is, bro?
Street Kid: I’m allowed to walk wherever I [expletive] want, bro. I’ll stop as many cars as I like, bro. [Expletive] you and your rich daddy’s BMW, [expletive].
Frat Bro: Cross my path again and you’ll be jaywalking in a [expletive] wheelchair, bro! My dad’s the Senior Assistant DA in the OC! He wipes his [expletive] with a [expletive] rap sheet like yours! One call to the DA of this [expletive] and you’ll never set foot out of lockup! Trust me, bro! Trust me!
Street Kid: I got your license plate, [expletive]! You better start sleeping with your eyes open or you’ll wake up with your tires slashed and your [expletive] windows busted!
Frat Bro: Bring it, bro! Bring it! I’ll give you my address! Come on by! We’ll be waiting, [expletive]! We’ll be waiting!
Brimborion News reviewed the over ninety seconds of cellphone footage taken by the passerby.
“It was weird,” said Jericho Boutrand, 26, who witnessed the confrontation. “It was like they were falling over each other to prove who was more in the right, for all the wrong reasons. All because one couldn’t be bothered to cross in a crosswalk or look both ways, and the other was doing, like, 50 in a school zone.
“It was like neither one realized how big a sh–head they were admitting to being.”
