People can be stranger than fictional characters. I had this classmate who would always try to get everyone's attention with ridiculous stunts like cutting his hair during History or trying to fit his head into the toilet before English. He succeeded. But at the expense of earning himself a lot of crazy nicknames.
Earlier this month, Redditor LordP asked other users:" What's legal but if you do it, you still look like a psychopath?" and their post went viral, getting over 46K upvotes and nearly 20K comments, many of which prove that the boy I told you about isn't the only lunatic. Just because you can doesn't mean you should!

Entering an elevator full of people and not turning to face the door
I've done this on many occasions! I had no idea it was considered weird.
One of the politicians in our country bit into a hotdog sideways and in the middle, like a sandwich.
It was so weird that it was in the newspapers the next day. Slow news day obv, but made him look like a nutjob.
Digging holes in your backyard at night.
Just doing some night digging.
I was serving a very green, Chinese businessman at the pub and he ordered a burger and after a few seconds of sizing it up, stabbed it in the center with his fork and started eating it like a candy apple. I asked him if he was good, and he shrugged and said "sorry. I haven't figured out how to eat these yet"
Going out to the gym or something and using a Hershey's syrup bottle as a water bottle
Having carpet in your kitchen or bathroom
Lived in a house with kitchen carpet once, never again. Talk about impractical.
Hissing at people on the bus so they don’t sit next to you
walking around in public with a glass of water from home
Once my hubby didn't manage to finish his coffee before we went to work so he took cup and saucer with him when we left home. The crazy thing is: we get to work by bike and he's really good at driving free-handed. So he rode his bike with the saucer in one hand and his coffee in the other as if this was the most normal thing in the world. The people looked at him as if he was an alien. I've never seen so many huge eyes... :D
Eating a onion whole, like an apple
This is what will happen once you got Covid. No sense of taste. So gobble it up while you can.
Run while keeping your arms perfectly still at your sides
Put toothpaste directly into your mouth. Then brush teeth.
A manager I once had been reading a “how to manage people” book, which ended up with him telling me I was doing a good job, shaking my hand normally, then just standing still for 30 seconds, still holding my hand, in complete silence, staring directly into my eyes. Was supposed to be a reassuring show of dominance or some such s**t, but it was just weird and creepy.
The urge to make a sudden loud noise and frighten him would have been overwhelming 😅
Standing next to someone at a urinal even when there is an open one at the opposite end of the row.
When someone is holding a door open for you when a place has double doors and you just say f**k it and take the other door instead.
When you just happen to be going to the same place as the car/pedestrian in front of you. It's even creepier when it's a long distance and they look behind them and see you.
Oh god. This reminds me of a uni friend. He would pick a car on the motorway that was travelling at the speed he wanted to go and just follow it. For miles! I get worried people will think I'm following them if I happen to be going the same way as them for more than a couple of turns!
While shopping, pulling what you want out of other people's carts before they buy them.
It's also not legal in many countries. When you place the item in your trolley you are claiming ownership pending payment. I believe it falls under Common Law Larceny (in the UK at least).
Happened to my brother and sister-in-law when they ordered a small ham for the holidays. Picked up at the deli department then continued shopping. Christmas morning bro went to pull out the ham, but it wasn't there. Sis in law said "I thought you put it away". Found receipt and it did not show purchase. They wound up having hot dogs. When they called on Christmas and told me the story about their Christmas hot dogs I started singing "I'll be ham for Christmas, you can count on me, I'll be ham for Christmas, if only in my dreams......" Bro couldn't stop laughing. Good times.
I hip-shot a man into the dairy counter for pulling that stunt on me.
Look, that’s just annoying as f**k. You think I enjoy strolling through the isles to find things I want? Well, I don’t. I don’t find shopping anything other than necessary.
"goes to super msrket next they¨ thats mine and that i like that this is mine know and lets switch
I was grocery shopping and was approaching my cart about half an aisle away, I parked it on an empty aisle. I watched a woman take something out of her cart that she no longer wanted, and go to put it in my cart! She eyes me approach and, instead, ditches it on a shelf. How rude to everyone, just put it back!
I knew a guy who hated grocery shopping so much, he'd go to the supermarket and look for a cart that someone else had filled with groceries, but left unattended momentarily. He'd just take it, and go pay for whatever was in there, and that was his grocery shopping done
Taking their whole cart of goods to avoid doing your own shopping is in another category.
There's a comedian that does a routine about following a person around a grocery store "chucking ham" into their cart over and over again when they put it back. Along with stealing the hamburglar from a mcdonald's playland lol
stop responding midway thru an irl convo, but maintain eye contact
Casually eating a stick of butter during a business meeting
Eating a banana with the skin on
My boss used to apply his lip balm while making firm eye contact with me at the end of the day.
Eating condiments as a meal by themselves.

Presuming they are actually nail scissors, what's wrong about that?

Walking around a store then leaving said store without actually buying anything. I always feel so awkward when I leave a store that needed up not buying anything from.
Too bad nobody mentioned waving to random stangers as you are driving along.
That used to be common in the southern US. In rural areas it still happens. I like it. ☺️✌🏾
