Strangest things you've ever seen people do?!

[youcanonlydraftthefuture]

I can name a few.

I have my own, I clean my entire bathroom everyday and apparently that's odd, but I didn't realise. Ditto the kitchen, bathroom, etc.

As for other people, I've recently seen someone shouting at me for taking up a parent and child space (DC was in the shops already and I'd be taking him back with me).

Even if I saw someone very clearly getting back in and still no DC, I just wouldn't say anything They could have a hidden disability. They could just be cheeky, but it's not my business.

The biggest shocker was a woman in the changing areas at DC's Puddle Ducks class. She showered naked, which is all fine, I couldn't care less and think we should all be more accepting of it as a society. Then she went on to shave her pits! As if it was all normal and fine in that area and her DC was in their baby car seat on the floor I've never seen anything like it

A couple of weeks ago DH and I were leaving the Trafford Centre car park.
We'd just joined the main exit road from our bit of the car park and were driving down to join the road leading to the main exit from the centre (if you see what I mean).
The car in front of us stopped, the driver's door opened and the driver put a seemingly mostly full carrier bag on the road. Then closed the door and continued.
A bit dumbfounded we carried on, steering round the bag.
Then our brains kicked in and we started to fret: what if it's a bomb? A drug deal? We didn't get the car's number... Having Seen it, we should Say it and Sort it. Despite nor being on a railway.

While I was angst-ing (and OH was continuing to drive but slowly while we tried to work out what to do) another car pulled up by the bag, the driver lent out, picked it up and exited the car park.

Really couldn't work out what was going on.
Suggestions on a postcard?
Well, just on a post, I suppose.

New Year's Eve, about 26 years ago. Waiting to go into labour, gazing out of the window, saw a naked man running along the pavement (busy town) He was being pursued by a gaggle of shrieking women, who were in turn, being followed slowly by a police car. 'You don't see that every day' I thought.

@thesuninsagittarius

In the 90s as a teen walking in a local town behind a man who was holding A4 sized black and white photographs of close up erect cocks casually looking through them as he walked along.

Felt compelled to share my pooh story. I worked in an office where someone poohed on the toilet floor and it was stood in! Felt awful calling facilities to let them know

Used to live in a flat that's kitchen overlooked a communal car park in a not so desirable area. Saw so many weird and wonderful things just whilst washing up. Saw a policeman knocking on a door, having the door slammed in his face, he then attempted to jump through the window below us one to the left. Fell back, ran round the back and emerged with a guy in handcuffs.

My favourite was there was a woman and child in a car parked up, a man who lived in the next stairwells building was standing on the car rocking it. He got down pulled his kegs down and spread his bare arse up to the window side that the child was sitting on all while the woman and child were in fits of laughter.

My mum saw someone do a poo in tk max once so we always refer to it as the tk maxident now 😂

A lady who regularly takes her huge parrot out a walk on her shoulder and sings to it.

A lady naked from the waist down with a Tshirt and trainers on. Carrying a nice handbag.

youcanonlydraftthe future; . I also think cars have faces when I look at them
Small Mazda cars definitely have smiley faces!

When I worked in a petrol station as a forecourt attendant, a man drove in, got out of his standard looking car and asked me to fill it up. Then he walked inside and shouted casually over his shoulder, don't mind the goat. Sure enough, there's a goat standing on his back seat.

Once saw a colleague sniffing the seat of his chair...

There's a falconry club nearby who walk their birds of prey along the seafront. We must be used to it that we don't consider a man walking around with a huge fuck off owl on his arm to be at all strange

OH is a tradesman who was once working in a customers bathroom. He went into the garden to check how something looked from outside and noticed the lady squatting to do a wee on the lawn, presumably rather than just ask to get into the bathroom quickly.

A young woman sitting on a yoga mat on the traffic island outside our flat. She was there about an hour. Back again the next day. Never saw her after that.

My neighbour car washes every morning at 5.30am-ish using a toothbrush. He then re-paints the tyres black with special paint. 🤔

A man walking down the street with a tampax up his nose. Probably pretty practical fir a nose blooded, but still 😂

A 6'5" red fox in a full length leather coat & top hat & cane marching up a back street nearby. He made DDs day when he bowed to her

A very well hung, stark bollock naked Chinese man wearing nothing but a coolie hat & flip flops walking along a country road in China. When I expressed surprise that he was naked, my guide just shrugged & said "it's a hot day"

Walking my DC to school, a man was walking towards us pushing a child in a stroller. It was a two handled one so he had a hand on each handle. As we passed I noticed he was holding a live dove in one hand, sort of bunched up in his fist around the handle

I work with someone who won't eat cake baked by his work colleagues in case they didn't wash their hands before baking. So he assumes they haven't !

But he'll eat takeaway.

This is nearly all of MN !!! (and every teacher on MN always avoids food cooked by pupils)

I talk to my car. "Hello car. How Are you? Isn't it cold today? What music shall we listen to today?" Etc. I recently passed my test and am totally in love with my ten year old car as it has given me so much freedom. But I know it's odd too

I talk to my car, too. I pat her and tell her she's done well, and say thank you. And I apologise if I hit a pothole or mash the gears. And I say goodnight. I did catch myself calling her "Sweetheart" once, and I thought that was perhaps taking it a bit too far, although I, too, am totally in love with my car.

One of the strangest things I ever saw was a man in late middle age sitting alone on a train. He had a small teddy bear which was dressed in a knitted outfit. He was holding the teddy up so it could see out of the window, talking to it in a low voice and pointing out things of interest to it. But, you know ... I talk to my car, so who am I to judge?

An older man - in a suit that must have been very smart in 1978 - occasionally sits on my front garden wall with a wine glass and a bottle of rose at about 2am.

For months I was very confused by finding empty rose bottles in the garden. I've now seen him out of the window a few times, and I'm strangely fond of our very refined street drinker.

I don't know why but I love this in a proper heartwarming way. Gerald and Ted, besties for life.

I love this thread. It’s hilarious. My life seems very dull.
@spiderlight I can’t get that vision out of my head unfortunately 😂

I often pat my car and tell it to stay put after parking it at the shopping center

@AdoptedBumpkin that made me snort. Haha

I saw a man walking down the high street in lewisham once wearing nothing but a top hat

@AdoptedBumpkin that made me snort. Haha

Glad I made someone laugh
