Geeks, Nerd And Dorks United! discussion

Yesterday was the weirdest day of my life!!! So on my way to Springfield, there, and back we saw...
1. A guy gets out of his car, shoeless, and yell at someone on the sidewalk. We were at a stoplight too! Right behind him
2. A guy in a crouching position, looking like he was about to tackle a bus. XD
3. A lady waving her taxes around showing everyone.
4. Then we saw a guy with no shirt, two different shoes, and pink short shorts standing in a ditch.

Idk but my day was entertaining.

OH GODS! The creepy guy tho...

Well when I lived in Kansas City, MO, I was out with my mom and we had stopped at a traffic light. There was an Jeep about two cars ahead of us. All of sudden all four doors of the Jeep open and the guys that were in it got out and shut the doors. They ran around the Jeep screaming and waving their hands. Then suddenly they got back in but at different doors. Then drove away when the light turned green.

Yep but these were Adults...

I also did the Renaissance Festival. I was part of the cast...... And I can clearly say that you meet all kinds there..... You have your Traveling Rennies, You have you theatre groups like RST (Renaissance Sword Theatre), Christians, Pagans, Historians and those that really.... Ok so I don't know how to describe them but I did meet a man that said he was really a Were-wolf and completely believed it. But then who am I to question since there's been a lot of the unusual in my life.

A Mini with brooms as a hunting rack in an Italian restaurant parking lot is my most recent peculiar sight to see!

Wait, you guys that don't live in Kansas don't run around your cars at stop lights...?
We call them "Chinese Fire drills" (Don't ask me why).
It's where you're sitting at a stop light, and the driver can randomly yell CHINESE FIRE DRILL and EVERYBODY has to shoot out of the car and find a new seat. Generally the driver is the same, but it just depends who is with you.

I kind of find that hard to believe... I grew up knowing this!

Probably one of the funniest things recently was my younger sister was trying to spell "Pencil" and she sounded it out. My mom was grading her school work and throughout the entire thing she spelled pencil "penis"! XD

Was my bother actually acting his age.

They do it in Kansas City MO. But it's a rare occurrence anywhere else..... I think the exception is Abilene TX but then the people there are a bit off anyways.

Those are two very fascinating and hilarious stories!

I have some cousin in Texas, and they do it too!
My eyes have been opened. My life is a lie. XD

Here in Barcelona, when we go 'out' at night around 1 or 2 back in the woods, there's an abandoned subway tunnel. Which is used for challenges, and underground battles and all. Few people know about that place, but those who know come from god knows where to enjoy there. And the funny thing about it is that you'll rarely find a 'Spanish' person there. You'll find people from everywhere but the one with Spanish ancestors.

Huh

I'm usually the one to do weird stuff around here... I have been known to walk around the nearest town to our house while wearing a tophat of my own making and - sometimes - bursting into spontaneous Greatest Showman songs at the top of my voice in the middle of the road X'D

That's amazing I wish I had the self confidence to do something like that.

Heh. I don't exactly have self-confidence on the inside - not too much, anywho. Which is why I make up for it by being arrogant, show-off-y, and extremely silly a lot of the time. I'm working on it, though - it's DEFINITELY better than a year ago. And dancing in the street is SO MUCH FUN, lemme tell you!

I kind of have the same problem

Yeah...

Yeah. But I am getting better. The older I've gotten since I was 8 I have gotten shyer and shyer. It is also because an anxiety disorder. But I am much better than I used to be. But I still feel like I am not an attractive women. But I love my body. That's where I struggle.

Then you will feel pretty good if you ever see me, I’m uglyyyyyyy

Oh and fun fact, Rumell thought I was a boy at first, probably he hasn’t heard of a girl’s name like mine
