Tokyo senior citizen steals 159 bicycle seats in bizarre revenge plot
Some people can have a really weird sense of revenge. Japan is no exception.

Last summer, 61-year-old Akio Hatori, who lives in Tokyo’s Ota Ward, had a bad day. See, he wanted to head out on his bicycle, but someone had stolen the seat.
Obviously, he then had to buy a replacement seat, and while that’s thankfully not such a huge expenditure, Hatori was still incredibly upset about the incident, and it’s not hard to see why. It’s not like there’s a lucrative bicycle seat black market, nor are they the sort of things you might find yourself suddenly in need of while out and about, thus finding yourself tempted to steal one as a way out of your desperate distress. No, really the only reason to steal a bicycle seat is to be a jerk and annoy someone else. Psychologically it’s arguably as much vandalism as it is theft, and it’s understandable that Hatori would remain pretty pissed off about the whole thing.
Even when fall rolled around, Hatori still wasn’t over his anger, and so he decided to take action. So did he use the intelligence and network of personal contacts he’s acquired over the course of his life to track down the thief? Did he hop on his newly reseated bicycle and patrol the neighborhood, hoping to prevent other forms of low-level street crime?
Nope. He just started stealing a bunch of other people’s bicycle seats, and when we say a bunch, we mean 159 of them.
