A long-standing source of intrigue around Microsoft headquarters in Redmond is, ‘The Golden Helmet.’ Apparently his real name is Stephan, and he has the horror story to justify his glittered headgear. From Ariel Stallings’ interview:

Jesus.
Remember when they said this thing was going to replace cars and revolutionize urban design. Then the company started lobbying to allow them on sidewalks.
Well this guy buys it because he was tired of walking 20 minutes to work. (I can’t tell from the photo whether he’s on the street or the sidewalk, but it certainly doesn’t see to be ‘raining or hot out.’)
You should be publicly shunning him rather than giving him kudos for being so lazy.
