Women are constantly being harassed by creepy dudes who have greasy mustaches growing right on their very souls. We're not sure how the ideal scenario plays out in those perverts' heads. "If I show this random girl my dick for no reason, she'll fall in love with it. I've got a very lovable dick!" Oh, but sometimes that story plays out in a hilariously different fashion than the pervert intended ...

New York had Son Of Sam. San Francisco had the Zodiac Killer. Philadelphia had ... the Swiss Cheese Pervert?

Back in 2014, a serial criminal cruised the streets of Philly armed only with deli-fresh Swiss cheese and his exposed genitals. His modus operandi: approaching unsuspecting women and asking them to wrap his penis in cheese and masturbate him. Let that act now and forever be known as a "cheesesteak handy."

For someone who frequently negotiates wrapping his hog in dairy products with unwary passersby, the Swiss Cheese Pervert was a surprisingly careful man. Even after he'd already harassed several women, the police had no leads on catching him. So the women of Philadelphia took action. One lady was able to snap a photo of the guy. She passed it on to the local town watch. They posted it on Facebook, where it of course went viral, because that is literally what the Internet was invented for (that stuff about "military communications" is an urban legend).

When even the power of the Internet proved unable to connect the grainy picture with a name, it seemed that the investigation stalled out ... until a woman named Gabby Chest stepped forward. Yes, that is seriously her name. Gabby Chest vs. The Swiss Cheese Pervert happened in reality, instead of in a Nancy-Drew-themed porno. Gabby had been receiving strange messages from a man on OKCupid who was asking her to Jack his Monterey with some Swiss. He also shared his somewhat sad supervillain origin story with Gabby -- for him, cheese had become a substitute for women, as "girls are soft and have milky complexions."

Gabby figured that the man who sent her these messages and the Swiss Cheese Pervert must be the same guy. Because seriously, how many people have this fetish? (We mean before now -- we're sure many of you just discovered something terrible about yourself while reading this.) Gabby put her knowledge of the dude on the town watch Facebook page, which enabled a local reporter to piece together his identity and knock on his door.
