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.
stop responding midway thru an irl convo, but maintain eye contact
Casually eating a stick of butter during a business meeting
Eating unwrapped food from inside your pockets
Pro tip: If you line your pocket with a napkin first, you avoid eating lint.
I once had a friend who pulled a slice of pizza out of his pocket and ate it
I worked in a Best Buy briefly as the guy who checks receipts as you leave. The guy who trained me would bring in deli meat wrapped in a napkin and eat it straight out of his pocket. Nobody knew he did that but I mentioned it to someone else in passing. He was known as "Pocket Ham" thereafter.
I worked with senior citizens. Asked this man if he wanted any lunch today, he said "no thanks I have a pancake". Pulled a dry rolled up pancake out of his pocket. And ate it.
DUDE I saw a person who was training to be a math teacher eat something brown from inside one of his pockets, and I whispered to my friend next to me about it, and we were just pondering what it was for so long before he finally said, "Dog Treats?" And ever since then we've been quietly joking about it.... Some things we've said were "Maybe he's trying his dog's healthcare plan" or "Maybe he's secretly a dog"............ "secret life of pets!!"
I once stuff chocolate chips in my pocket, and sneakily ate them throughout the school day
My husband's business partner once pulled a day old McDonald's breakfast sandwich from his high end suit pocket on the way to a meeting. Bachelorhood at its finest!
Used to hide cookies in my apron at the deli I worked in. Messed up some laundry that way lol
This just made me remember when I met a guy on a day trip once (we were both tourists overseas). He pulled a handful of salted peanuts out of his pocket and offered them to me. I politely declined but it made me laugh.
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.

Go into a supermarket, take some vodka and nappies (diapers) to the check out, pretend to only have enough money for one and put the nappies back, people will look at you a certain way.
Presuming they are actually nail scissors, what's wrong about that?

In a public parking lot follow someone who's walking to their car and park next to them
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. ☺️✌🏾
