The legend of Purple Aki is one of the funniest things I’ve ever read. It’s so absurd sometimes I wonder if I invented it
The fuck is a purple aki? Sounds like a strain of weed.
Jail didn’t stop reports coming in of strange behaviour from Arobieke. Years later, a court was told that fellow inmates complained he had asked to measure their biceps with a shoelace.
Oh boy you’re in for a treat https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/resources/idt-6d083913-0bfb-4988-8cd8-d126fa6dcff1Basically he was a huge black guy who would approach bodybuilding youths and ask to feel their muscles. His signature move was laying on their back upside down, and having them squat up and down while he would squeeze their thighs and calves.Some boy fell on to the subway tracks running away from him and got electrocuted to death, and Aki got a 10-year ban on touching or commenting on the muscles of others. The legend grew and mothers in the area would warn their children not to stay out after dark or Purple Aki would get them. A modern day bogeyman.This probably sounds like I made it up but I Shit you not it’s all true.
You've never heard of Akinwale Arobieke?
Haha, can’t say that I have.
