Photo: Pizzeria Owner Caught On Restaurant Cameras Beating Off (NSFW)
Well, this is sure making us reconsider our craving for a slice of white pie. 4Chan users have uncovered what appears to be Giusepp "Jersey Joe" Scire, owner of a San Diego Pizzeria, having a little too much fun with his salami.
Scire insists the video and photos that went viral starting Wednesday are not of him at Jersey Joe's. But either way, it's pretty repulsive.
Says HuffPo:
The owner of Jersey Joe's Pizzeria told HuffPost Weird News today that he's not the guy in a photo circulating around the Internet, showing a white-haired man masturbating in a pizzeria kitchen -- nor is it anyone working at his establishment. Scire said that he "fired two guys recently" and suggested that he might be the victim of a disgruntled ex-employee.
That's all well and good, but if we were in SD for Comic-Con this weekend, we wouldn't be taking any chances at his pizzeria.
