to stand very closely behind someone and move with them while talking so that they can never quite see me?

[TheHonEnid]

and secretly think how ridiculous they look?

This works a treat with my partner, we do it all the time, not unreasonable in the slightest!

we do an 'egg' which involves holding your finger just below their line of sight near their cheek. then say something to get them to look at you. then taunt them saying 'egg'.

Have I missed something here?

egg...move....fingers....?
you're all quite mad.....unreasonable doesn't enter into it
(grabs handbag, purses lips, looks the other way)

lolol ratbunny

I forgot to add the Important Bit

When they turn to look at you, they have to turn their head so they poke themselves on your finger. If they dont, you can't say 'egg'.

im confused lol

I think I understand the concept here.

When DH and I are out for a drive, usually in the countryside away from home, we pip the horn at people we don't know walking along the road and wave madly as if we know them.

Tis priceless to see the confused look and then the last second half-hearted wave back.

lolol

I do the honk and wave thing.

DP hates it and smacks my hand if I'm not quick enough

My children want to know who everyone is whenever I say "thank you" in the car or acknowledge others' thanks. They are convinced I must know so many people.

can't believe I'm writing this but at times Germany seems a sane and restful place to be...

actually I often smile and wave at people I don't know from Adam since I am too vain to wear my glasses and just don't see their faces clearly enough

My husband says he used to pip the horn and wave at anyone just to laugh at their confused looks - I tell him it's because he has no real friends to do it to. I ignore anyone who honks their horn at me!!

It is surprisingly difficult to ignore a honking horn and a frantic wave...

DH and I have been away this weekend and had a lovely time playing this game. We do the manic grin and thumbs-up too. Aww bless the dumbfounded faces. You do have to make sure the traffic is moving though as can be a tad embarassing if the car gets to a standstill.

I used to shout at cyclists out of the car window "YOur back wheel's going round! It's going round, look!"

They always did, much to my mirth.

that reminds me a little bit of...

Things to do in an elevator

• Bring a camera, and take pictures of everyone in the elevator.
• Move your desk into the elevator, and whenever someone gets on, ask if they have an appointment.
• Lay down a Twister mat and ask people if they'd like to play.
• Leave a box in a corner, and when someone gets on, ask if they hear something ticking.
• Pretend you are a flight attendant and review emergency procedures and exits with the passengers.
• Ask, 'did you feel that?'
• Stand really close to someone, sniffing them occasionally.
• When the doors close, announce to the others, 'It's okay, don't panic. They'll open up again.'
• Swat at flies that don't exist.
• Tell people that you can see their aura.
• Call out, 'GROUP HUG!' and enforce it.
• Grimace painfully while smacking your forehead and muttering, 'Shut up. All of you. Just Shut up!!!'
• Crack open your briefcase or purse and while peering inside, say 'Got enough air in there?'
• Stand silently and motionless in the corner, facing the wall, without getting off.
• Stare at another passenger for awhile, then announce in horror, 'You're one of THEM,' and back away slowly.
• Wear a puppet on your hand, and use it to talk to the other passengers.
• Listen to the elevator walls with a stethoscope.
• Make explosion noises when anyone presses a button.
• Ask if you can push the button for other people, but push the wrong ones.
• Stare grinning at another passenger for awhile, then announce 'I have new socks on.'
• Draw a little square on the floor with chalk, and announce to the other passengers, 'This is MY personal space!!'
• When there's only one other person in the elevator, tap them on the shoulder and pretend it wasn't you.
• Push the buttons and pretend they give you a shock.
• Call the Psychic Hotline from your cell phone, and ask if they know what floor you're on.
• Hold the doors open, and say that you're waiting for your friend. After awhile, let the doors close and say, 'Hi Greg, how's your day been?'
• Drop a pen, and wait until someone reaches to help pick it up, and then scream 'That's mine!'

(which always amuses me)
