What is Tweezot?

An individual who goes around sucking farts out of dead seagulls.
It's rare but I saw a tweezot on the beach today!

This is a Montreal (which has a great public-transport system) term, that I first heard in the late 1950's. A tweezot is a pervert who gets down on his knees to suck the farts out of the cushions of the back bench seat of a bus, particularly if an attractive person has just relinquished that seat. The back seat was favoured because on the older Montral busses the row of seats in front of it had a sort of panel that blocked the driver's view of anyone crouching down there. (The busses have since been redesigned.)
A young secretarial type stood up to get off the crowded bus at the next stop. I tried to push my way to the vacant seat, but some tweezot got there first.
