30 Unbelievably Strange Encounters With Random Strangers That These People Still Can’t Believe
Most of the memories that stick with us are of pivotal moments in our lives, perhaps getting that job that kickstarted your career or the day you met your soulmate. However, memories are a fickle thing and some people have the unfortunate experience of meeting a stranger so horrible that they still carry the story with them.
An internet user, out of morbid curiosity no doubt, wanted to hear other’s worst experiences with total strangers. And people delivered, with stories ranging from bizarre to downright terrifying. So be warned, some potential unpleasantness ahead. If you do stay, be sure to upvote your favorite (however you choose to interpret that) and share your own stories in the comments.

Me, a child: playing with toys in Walmart
a random stranger: "I'd like you to play with my little boy toy."
My Dad, just on the other end, watching me doesn't say a word to the man just grabs him and throws him across the aisle. Then screams out, "If you want to play with him. You're gonna have to play with me first!"

This is why I think store staff should be allowed to tell parents they have to stay with their kids and not just drop them off at the toy aisle, as if it's a fun zone daycare. I know this dad didn't do that, but I'm astonished how many parents do that and I think of what risks they're putting their small kids in.

I may have told this story before on here, but…when my daughter was about 2, I sat her in the top part of the grocery cart while waiting for my husband to come in from parking the car. I had my foot on the bottom part of the basket, when all of a sudden, I noticed the basket was moving… Some weirdo was trying to take the cart!! And he goes, “oh, I didn’t notice there was a BABY in it”, and ran away quickly. I was too shocked to even try to stop them!! Scared me to death, and it happened in the blink of an eye!

My neighbor did this once! My daughter was 4. We were at a campground and their was a woman in the camper next door always trying to bring my daughter over this creepy guys camper next to hers! My daughter was on the porch and I had to use the bathroom. I was on the toilet 5 feet away and left the front door open while I peed. I come back out and this crazy woman has my daughter by the hand about to carry her into her camper!! I flipped out. I wanted to have her charged with attempted kidnapping and she tried to say I abandoned my kid by leaving her outside. I never did again not even for 30 seconds because if someone is lurking and waiting that's all the time they need

Photograph, ask him to repeat his remark, take to police, lay charge of pedophilia.

This is more important than beating the guy up. If they are a genuine pedo then what the Dad did won't stop them long term. Much better to get them arrested.

This is an appropriate reaction to someone talking to your child in an inappropriate way. However, if the kid was tearing up the toy aisle and rendering the toys unsellable, and the guy told him to stop being destructive, it would not have been an appropriate reaction of the father. Pick your battles wisely. Kicking a pedophile’s a*s is defense of a child. Getting up in someone’s face because they simply asked your child to behave—-which is your job that you were neglecting to do—-is not defensive, but offensive.

When I started 3rd grade, I transferred to a new school. The school I went to prior was an abnormally small private catholic school. I think they only had about 5 teachers and under 30 students total. This school was so small, the cafeteria doubled as an art classroom. With the size of the school, it was also very protected. Everyone in the school was friends with each other. There were no such things as bullies, because everyone's parents were friends, and those parents were also great friends of the teachers. Aside from the occasional pre-pubescent children nagging and whining amongst ourselves and outbursts that young kids have, it was pretty great of an atmosphere. When I got to my new school on the first day, which was a public school in Pittsburgh. I was so out of my element it was insane. I couldn't comprehend why everyone wore different clothes, why there were so many people, why the teachers were so brash and somewhat aggressive. Nobody seemed friendly, nothing made sense. It was a total culture shock. Fast forward to lunch, they announced they had a salad bar. This was the most normal part of the day for me, because at my old school we usually had lunches like salad bars. I made a few acquaintances prior to lunch which gave me tremendous relief as the biggest worry I had that day was wondering if i'd have to eat lunch by myself or with a table of people i dont know. Me and the two other kids at the time made it through the lunch line and got to the salad bar. I started to fix up my tray with the most wonderful salad a kid could ask for - lettuce, ranch, croutons, bacon bits. As soon as i turned away from the salad bar, a very tall and lanky girl with zany pigtails in braids just stood in front of me and practically made sure i would "accidentally" walk right into her. The obvious outcome; My tray collided with her tray, which sent the salad flying, covering her mostly in ranch dressing. I lost all of my salad, and everyone was f*****g chuckling about it. She decided to start crying and it went from bad to even worse, because i had the teachers rush over to me and grab me by my arm and drag me to the principles office. I got yelled at for about 10 minutes and was told that my first impression was certainly not a good one, and the girl had to have her parents come in and bring her a change of clothes. Nobody would listen to my side of the story, and this idiot told everyone that i threw my salad at her so she would "get out of my way". I never met this girl in my life, i didnt even know she existed prior to her sabotaging me and making me go hungry. When i explained that it was an accident, they would retort with "how? You saw her standing there". I sat in the office, starving, crying, and scared that my mom would beat my a*s. She came down to the school shortly after, and this was the light at the end of the tunnel. The principle takes her into her office, and i start to hear yelling. I start crying harder, because now momma is in trouble... but then i realized the yelling wasnt from the principle, it was my mom. My mom went the f**k off on the principle. I heard things such as "It's his first day, do you really think he would throw his f*****g salad in her face?" and "How dare you not let my son eat?!" My mom took me home, got me mcdonalds, and i lived in total fear for the rest of 3rd grade. Mom cant always be there to save me, but goddamnit mom... you f*****g killed it. Happy mothers day.

Being an imaginary victim is a form of passive aggressive bullying common to girls' relationship (there are studies to show the difference in expression of aggression in girls and boys). I had a girl who hit my daughter at a club, and when my daughter complained to the teacher, the other girl came up with such a beautiful fake victimhood background story, that they called me to pick my daughter up! We ended up taking our daughter out of this club. I wish I was the yelling type more, but I totally gave them all pieces of my mind and I didn't have their educational abilities in high regard. The OP's incident is in similar vain. Perceived victims enjoy the attention they get. And they enjoy the fact that someone they see as a threat (new kid, jealousy etc) knows their place. It's a bullying tactic.

I'm sorry you had to go through that. Sadly people still have a problem with others being left-handed and it's so annoying. When my young brother was in 2nd grade around 2015, his teacher tried to force him to write with his right hand, and she beat him across his fingers with a wooden ruler when he failed to. I (19 years old at the time)marched down to the school the next day and read her the riot act, bold and in all CAPS. Long story short, she didn't mess with my brother again.

Look I live by Hanlon’s Razor, so my assumption would have been that OP did this by accident, if I were there. BUT given that this story happened in 3rd grade, is it possible that OP doesn’t recall all the details 100% accurately and the girl didn’t actually intend to cause cause the accident either, but was a bit of a “victim” generally (like some kids just are) and assumed OP did it on purpose (hence all her carry on). Like, it seems a really weird thing for her to have done on purpose?

WTF. Something similar happened on the bus. Guy was sitting in the back and I was sitting near the front. As he was getting off he made his way to the front doors fast while smacking the poles and backs of the seats as he was tearing down the aisle. He smacked the back of my head really hard and as he left he just said "Oh, did I hit you. Sorry, didn't see you and left." I didn't call the police as I didn't know where he was going and didn't trust they would do much about it.
Unfortunately, there are people out there who are somehow entirely blind to social norms and will flagrantly break them without a thought. In a few cases, this could be simple ignorance or lack of ability to read social cues. Everyone knows someone who is probably well-meaning but ends up being downright annoying to be around.
But many of the cases listed here go much further than, say, a loud belch at a dinner table or an awkward question about one’s love life. These encounters veer into downright antisocial behavior, which at “best” are a nuisance and at worst, could be seen as a crime. Traditionally, this is seen as part of a personality disorder, but more contemporary psychologists believe it could, instead, be a result of certain issues in upbringing.

Absolutely, who said it was ok to touch anyone without permission? It reminds me of something of parish priest did when I was a kid: After services when everyone was leaving, he walked up and patted my mother's midsection and loudly asked "when is the wee one due"...there were 4 of us already and she was expecting (in fact after my youngest sibling was born she had to have emergency surgery due to severe hemorrhaging and couldn't have any more children even if she wanted to) She looked him straight in the eye and loudly answered in front of other parishioners: "If you touch me like that again I'm going to have to break one of the commandments and we'll need to get a new pastor!" (Needless to say, he never did that again.)

I was about 11 and me and some friends were standing on a small bridge over a lake. All of a sudden I was picked up and thrown over the railing into the lake below. I tried to grab onto anything I could as I fell and scrapped my arms up pretty good. I still have scars 30 years later. So I swim to the side and some older kid comes up to me and just say - sorry, I thought you were someone else.

Back in the '70s, I was riding in a car that my best friend's mother was driving on a highway. There was me, my friend, her brother, and a couple of other kids in the car. The age range for the kids was about 7 to 9 years old. It was a warm day, and my friend's mother had her window rolled down (no air conditioning). A car full of teenagers pulled alongside of her, and someone threw a full cup of ice water through the window at her. I got hit by it, too, because I was sitting in the front seat next to her. She managed not to lose control of the car. In retrospect, it was incredibly fucked up to try and cause a lady with a car full of kids to crash.

Load More Replies...The generally accepted cause of antisocial behavior is upbringing or a lack thereof. This is a sort of double-edged sword, as it lets us pinpoint how to prevent it, but unfortunately, it offers little hope for people who are already adults. The upside is the policymakers, social workers and just people who live in a community can all do their part to help, but it also means they generally have to suffer at the hands of existing, antisocial adults.

I was in London on business and my hotel was hosting a Christmas party for a bunch of Russians also there on business. I was sitting at the bar by myself and one of the Russian women invited me to sit with her and her friends. Her table had her, three other women and two men. I don’t speak Russian but they were all very nice and welcoming to me. The woman sitting across from me was passed out drunk with her head on the table. No one paid any attention to her. After 30 minutes me and the woman who invited me were flirting pretty good. Suddenly the drunk woman sits up straight, points at me, scowls and begins yelling what obviously were Russian swear words. She does this for about a minute while the rest of us just stare at her and say nothing. Then she plops her head back down on the table and goes to sleep. I asked everyone collectively “what was that all about?” One of the guys replied “she doesn’t know why you are sitting with us, she hates you and she called your mother some very bad names. But don’t pay her any attention, she’s a crazy Russian. We’re happy to party with an American.

Complimented my penis. I was at a camp shower at a campground. I was around 12 some random guy walked in and just stared at me and watched me take a shower making weird small talk. This was the late 70's, early 80's. Kids werent special yet and we basically were raised you just be polite to adults so I was "yes sir" and "no sir" the creep. The Adam Walsh TV movie changed all of that and parents were like, hey, maybe we should watch our kids a little bit? He didn't rape me so I guess that's a plus.

Unfortunately, too many adults today still don’t believe kids when they try to tell them something bad happened to them. We end up reading/hearing about the horrible things that end up happening because no one believed them in the news. Please people, listen to your kids. I know they can make things up, but sometimes they’re telling you the truth. You can always ask a couple qualifying questions to make sure, but still listen to them, instead of dismissing them and tuning them out.

My gym teacher in middle school was like this, but back then (1960s) we kids had never heard of pedophiles and were clueless. BTW, his last name was "Flowers", which in retrospect is a bit amusing.
The rapid social changes brought on by technology have made it hard to track exactly what stimulus ends up causing kids to start behaving poorly. In the age of regular TV consumption, some studies found that for every additional hour of TV a teen watched, the risk of them exhibiting some antisocial behavior rose by roughly 30%. However, as most parents now know, young people aren’t really watching hours and hours of TV, but it’s unclear if, say, video games or streaming has the same effect as TV used to.

The problem is because she wasn't reacting you probably wouldn't immediately act and neither would most people. The first reaction for *most* people would be "WTF", but followed by "She must know him". Unless she was struggling of course, but as the OP said she was too stunned to move.

I was sitting at a cafe with my then partner. A man came up to our table, held finger guns at my temple and whispered "I wish I f*****g could." And then yanked my hair and rushed out. It was completely unprovoked. I've technically had more violent and scary things happen to me, but that's stuck with me for a really long time. I think it's because I had been having a lovely day until that point. I was so excited to be sitting in a cute cafe, eating pie with my date. And now I can't get the image of her face falling as she looked at the man out of my head. We went home after that.

In the 70s, my then boyfriend and I were at a restaurant eating dinner. One of U. S. senators came in with an aide. He saw my boyfriend point at him, so he came over to as . . . constituents, He asked if he and his aide could join us for dinner. When dinner was over, he reached across the table, took my hand, and asked ,"Would you like to ride back to Indianapolis with me tonight." Needless to say I declined. Neither my boyfriend nor I could believe he did this in front of my boyfriend!

It's a horrible and weird thing to do regardless, but I need more context for this. Was this a lesbian couple and the guy was a homophobe, or a racist thing or what?
It’s not fair, however, to pin all the blame on media. Media only raise a child if the parents are absent in some form, which might be a more significant trigger than, say, Cartoon Network or Minecraft. Even more significantly, parental abuse is pretty closely tied with the victim “passing on” the abuse to another, creating a spiraling cycle of violence and bad behavior. Even smaller things, like poor nutrition and poverty, can cause an environment where normal social behavior is not learned, leading to the sorts of adults we see in these stories.

I was waiting for my girlfriend at the bus terminal in order to go to her home to meet her parents for the 1st time. This one random old dude aproaches me, askes me about the boat schedules (it's a boat and bus terminal), and I'm happy to help him out. Since it's still a while for the next boat and it takes a while for my girlfriend to arrive, the dude keeps talking to me and I didn't mind about it and was having a conversation with him. He asks me for a cigarette (I don't smoke) and offers me a beer (I don't drink). Out of the blue he asks me "Do you want to go to my house while you wait for your girlfriend?". I'm like "Is this dude hitting on me or something? wtf..." and try my best to be polite and shut down and move away from him because it was getting a bit unconfortable. Not long after, the bus is arriving and I use it as an excuse to gtfo of the conversation. By my face my GF can tell that something happened and I tell her wtf just happened and when I look back to tell her who the dude was, the dude just vanished like a ghost. I'm even more confused by this. Next thing I know, she's describing me the old dude "Is the man you talked to like this and that, and wearing this and that?" and I'm like "Yeah, how do you know?" and she blank stares at me "That's my dad and he's right there". Not a bad f****d up thing, but f****d up to do to an unsuspecting person in a stressing situation like meeting your SOs parents for the 1st time. In his defense tho, he did make a joke when we "officially" met and said "Well, we're going to my house after all!"

Either way, that's effed up and down! Was he REALLY hitting on her? Or him, for that matter, but I think it's her, as creepy old dudes tend to be more into girls than boys... So, really hitting on her? Creepy as fugg. Playing a hit-on-her game, knowing whom he's encountering? Creepy, a but less, but messed up maybe even more. If you hit on someone, or play like doing so in order to ... play a trick? Anything one may play or enact without being seious about it that might cause self defense is dangerous - the self-defender won't know it's just a play, doesn't know if anyone else is involved, and self defense in a situation perceived as truly dangerous, is dangerous in itself, as it may hurt the creep-actor as well as, in the fight that unfolds, the defending one, or bystanders who try to help the one they think is the victim. All of these people may be stupid, armed, martial artists, have a bad day, have only seen half of the relevant act, and a lot more not determinable variables. Don't get me wrong, I'm more in than out in regard to weird jokes and stuff, but this is downright dangerous, r a huge bullet dodged in her Dad not hitting on you any further. But, is he like that to other girls, too? Is he a real creep, maybe even one who's not only lacking manners and understanding of boundaries, but one who deserves to be in jail? Who knows? Who can know beforehand, or in the act itself?

I had just recently got my driver's license. I was driving down a back road going the speed limit (55) and I was the only car on the road. When I checked my mirror a few seconds later, a red car was directly on my a*s, so close I couldn't see his front plate. He began slowing down and speeding towards the back end of my car repeatedly. After a few minutes, he sped past me in a no passing zone and started brake checking me (speeding up and slamming his brakes to try getting me to hit him). After a minute or so of that, he slammed his brakes and we both came to a full stop. He got out of his vehicle and started pounding on the driver's side window screaming and cursing me out before getting back in his car and speeding off. I pulled over and stayed there for a few minutes to insure he was long gone before proceeding...

This sort of thing happens when you accidentally cut someone off OR you are in their way and they want to speed. It causes them to go into road rage. I find the best solutions are (a) go into a suburb or area that you know well, with lots of confusing side roads, and shake him in there. (b) Pull into a police station. (c) If you have a passenger, make sure they film the incident and show him you are filming it. Put him on social media so he can be hunted down.

A friend and I had this happen to us years ago when he was driving. Sadly mobiles existed but they didn't have cameras yet. My friend changed lanes and the guy behind us apparently thought we cut him off. I dunno, since I was the passenger, but my friend believes there was plenty of room. Anyway guy goes road rage, threw a can of deodorant or similar at the car (left a small nick and dint in the paint) and pulled up alongside starting to spit at it. Then took off. We followed long enough to get his license plate then went to the police. Got told there wasn't much that could be done but they'd take a look. While we're at the station they checked the number plate and obviously IDed the owner. I remember the cop's attitude changing and he sort of went "Ohhh!" Didn't say who the other driver was but he had a record with multiple assaults on it. I don't know if they followed up but the cop said they would pay him a visit.

Next time someone break checks you, video the back of the car doing it making sure you get the license plate. Then file a police report. We did this and the police tracked her down and issued a ticket for reckless driving and leaving the scene (she scratched our car trying to pass in a construction zone - double fines.)

Got to be careful with taking that video. In a lot of places it's illegal to use a mobile while driving. So you'd risk getting a fine yourself. You'd hope the police would understand mitigating circumstances, but I wouldn't bet on it.

I'm gay and my husband and I married in the rotunda of the courthouse. As we said I do and kissed a group of Mennonite kids started spitballing us and throwing stuff down at us. Hit the judge too. It was a really crappy way to remember our wedding. No witnesses, just us which is how we wanted - but then what was essentially a hate crime. The children's parents were amused. My husband chased down security and they had it on video. Security stopped the family and then asked my husband if he wanted to prosecute. I was turning in our marriage certificate at that moment so I wasn't there to threaten 'yes'. My husband said no of course. I didn't want to really prosecute, but I wanted to put some fear in them.

"Religion is about love, it's those abusing it for ....... " - BS, on ALL of that! If religion is abused anywhere, it is the cases where humanist values are being displayed as merits of religion, while the actual merits include standing up against religious bullying and worse. Religion is not about love, peace, understanding or generally being good in any way that reasonably is considerable good, but about control, obedience and shutting down curiosity. Interpreting any good in it may have positive results, still, but that doesn't make the reasoning behind it any truer.

There are also some genetic factors that ultimately might lead to people behaving in ways that others find annoying or downright horrible. The bottom line is that antisocial behavior, ultimately, needs to be cut off at the source. This means that all of us have to look for ways to help dysfunctional families, to make sure children can live in a safe environment and that psychological help like Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is available to those in need.

Easiest way to avoid this is simply sit on the outside of the seat. If there are other seats available, never make eye contact. If they ask to sit next to you, say NO loudly, and do not move. This is 100% a power game. The other person (I'd bet a man, 99% of the time) is counting on your (I'd bet a woman, 99% of the time) having ingrained niceness. At most say, there are other seats. Hold your ground. If and when he calls you a b***h, say, "Boys I'm taking charge here, or babe in total control of herself. Choose either, I like both." Then GLARE.

This sort of thing won't happen in my country unless the bus is full, which it often is. If a single woman is sitting by herself and there's an empty seat, generally a man will sit next to her and try strike up conversation. it is unfortunate. My advice to women in this situation is if possible try find an older woman to sit next to. They are sick of our s**t and will definitely defend you.

I work at a hotel as a housekeeper. Yesterday we had a baseball team checking out and I had a bunch of their rooms on my list. The rooms were reasonably messy, nothing too bad. But the last room…they trashed the place. Trash thrown everywhere and hidden in some places, food ground into the carpet, p**s on the bathroom floor, greasy hand prints on the windows and mirrors. The whole shebang. This was s****y, sure, but what made it f****d up was how they tipped me. They dragged a chair into the middle of the room, faced it towards the door, and left a stack of fake hundred dollar bills in the seat in plain sight.

That's just plain stupid. This happened in San Diego and made news: Group of guys rented a suite and completely trashed it. I'm talking poop on the sheets and towels, urine all over the carpet, cigarette burns in the carpet (it was a non-smoking hotel), they broke the bed frame and mangled the lamp shades, left all kinds of garbage, including p**s filled beer bottles. You name it. The hotel took photos of everything and charged the card on record close to $4,000 (if I remember correctly) for a new bed, new carpet, paint due to the smoking, etc. The card belonged to one of the guy's Dad, who hit the roof about the charges. So the hotel Owner (not the Manager, the Owner) did a video chat and showed the guy all the damage his son & two friends had managed to wreak in less than 3 days. The man was furious at the kid. Last I heard the kid had been charged by the police, but we moved before I heard the outcome.

My ex got me out of there, supposedly wrapped me in a blanket, and checked to make sure I was breathing the rest of the night. 6 hours later, I sat bolt upright from being nearly comatose, to stone cold sober and zero hangover.

Pretty sure if I'd finished that beer I would have died. Never knew what she put in it, never asked. Friends don't DO that to friends.

The scariest part is that it feels exactly the same as being drunk so had it happened in the middle or end of the night I probably would have just thought “that’s crazy, I blacked out and don’t remember anything after 1:00.” Both times it was my first beer. I remember feeling it kick in and thinking “someone f***ing spiked my…” and then nothing for about 8.5 hours. First time I came to right after an argument or something and I was crying hysterically with absolutely no clue what was going on or why I was upset. Still not sure what all happened that night.

I was on a ship that served goods/drinks/dancing as it cruised the ocean harbor. My husband and I went on it with a few other friends (all couples). At some point everyone wanted to play this drinking game we’re we pass around a cup of beer and who ever can roll a quarter off their nose into the cup has to drink it (or if they miss they drink it, I can’t remember details). I was 19, still rather well stupid. Anyways, I had to drink the cup. It was a small cup and just beer so I wasn’t worried about the amount but shortly after I started getting super dizzy and very woozy and I kept telling my husband “something is wrong, I feel like I’ve been drugged”. By the time the ship pulled into harbor to offload he had to carry he out and I recalled nothing after until the next day. I’m 100% convinced someone playing that game with us thought it would be funny to slip the date rape drug in the drink or something. Never ever ever again did allow myself to be in a position like that.

Worked in retail. Foreigner comes in and start asking me for "the balls, the balls, where are the balls?" I ask him does he want toys or some other kind of balls. No, not toys. Then he puts his hands in front of him like he's cupping something and moves it up to his lips. "I need balls". I look at him and say "I don't know what that is but it's not helping." We finally figured out he wanted bowls.

Not inappropriate, but years ago when I worked in retail a normal-seeming, middle-aged guy asked me to check his shirt collar for the size because he normally didn't shop for his own clothes. It was no big deal, but it was kind of sad in it's own way.

It sounds like something a child would do "for fun", because once I went to a birthday party at 10 years old and the form of entertainment was throwing balloons with water from the balconies. I don't miss the 90s, it's okay to have the kids in structured activities. I'm sorry it happened to you.

My sister had a propensity for dating the biggest douchebags on the planet. She was too hungover so she gave her debit card and keys to the guy she met a week before to go buy smokes. He disappeared. She reported the car stolen, etc. and got a call from the cops in Las Vegas about 10 days later that her car had been recovered. Guy was basically a con man (he emptied her bank account almost immediately) so he was in jail, but she had to go to Vegas to get the car. My brother flew down with her. On the way home (after this really f*cked up ordeal) someone threw a huge rock off an overpass and completely shattered her back glass. I thought she was going to have to be medicated by the time she made it home (Seattle).

Walking home from school when I was a kid. Two boys I never met before were behind me and threw a rock straight into the middle of my back for no reason. All I remember is them laughing about it and approaching me telling to try something so they could beat me and impress the girl who was with them. The other thing was being randomly shot. I'm not sure which is worse but those aren't the worst things to ever happen to me, just the worst things done by strangers.

Tapped me on the shoulder in a club and when I turned around, he headbutted me with all his might. Before I could even process what had happened, two bouncers had a hold of him, dragging him outside.
I was just stood there, dazed and confused with my nose pissing blood everywhere - then I was lead into a room by one of the bouncers and given tissues to stop my nose bleeding. He said to me that the guy had struck one of their guys on the way out and the police were going to arrest him if I wanted to talk to them. Automatically said no, not wanting to be a grass (snitch).
I never left my feet and my nose wasn't broken, so it wasn't really *that* big a deal - but it lives rent free in my head because I don't know who it was or why he did it.
I seen his face momentarily and didn't recognise him, and as such wouldn't be able to pick him out a crowd now. I wasn't dancing with any girls as I was already with my now Fiancé and very happy, so I didn't make moves on his girlfriend or love interest. Me and my friends keep ourselves to ourselves and aren't involved in any beefs or anything. I wasn't stumbling drunk, so couldn't have barged into him or spilled his drink or anything.
My best theory is mistaken identity. I look like my Brother and he and his crowd are a bit more nefarious. Either that or he just thought I was someone else completely.

Hmm being a snitch would be ratting out someone when you really weren't involved in the crime/whatever you saw... you reporting on the details of someone physically assaulting you just sounds like a reasonable thing to do. Anywho, you're a better person than I for forgiving someone headbutting you.

I parked completely WITHIN the lines of a parking space. Did nothing wrong. Received a note on my car: “Learn to park, A*****E!”. Rolled up to this note after a long day of dealing with young children. A man was walking by and I showed him the note and asked him if he thought it was warranted. He told me to crumble the note up and forget about it, I parked completely fine. Hope whoever wrote that note got some nice karma coming to them. Meanwhile, one of my biggest pet peeves is when people park straddling the parking lines. And yet I am the one who received a note. Cool. Edit. Now I’ve read a few of the replies on here and maybe I should just delete mine. I didn’t get punched in the face or hurt. Just felt the inconsideration and unjust rudeness from a stranger.

I was a cycle courier in Central London 2005/7 and amongst the litany of s**t that people did to me whilst riding through W1 my top three are: 3. Riding through Soho someone tried to snatch my bag and yanked me off the bike I came off and the bag was on me new york style when they couldn't get it off me the person squired a bottle of stewed p**s on me. F*****g junkies. 2. At Leicester Square I was taking a break on a slow Thursday afternoon and a couple of kids ( no older than 14) snatched my bike and tried to ride off but it was a 21inch frame and they stacked it in the road resulting in it being run over by ta bendy bus. 😔 1. Riding down Godge street on my last run of the day a car pulled up at a red light and threw a milkshake (Macdonalds chocolate ) in my face it smacked me and it really shocked me, I saw red and chased it for two blocks just raging at the next light I threw my lock through the back window. The car just drove off I was expecting a fight, harsh words something but nope just drove off.

Out at a bar in my mid 20s, my friend started talking to this girl. I let him do his thing for a while until he finally included me in the conversation and introduced me. The girl took one look at me at said “if you’re going to have any chance with a girl like me, you have to lose a few pounds and shave that goatee”. I was completely stunned. I had some very unkind words for her and eventually told my buddy to take her home and screw out what little brains he had left before I left the bar.
That was over ten years ago and unfortunately, that moment has stuck with me for a long time and probably contributes to why I have trouble meeting girls while out, even to introduce myself. I’ve dealt with rejection before and it hurts, but that comment hit me to my core.
Marilyn Whitby 2 years ago
Here's the thing. That comment had nothing to do with you. It FELT like it did, because she said it to you. But, that was just her idiotic and cruel way of validating herself and making her feel confident. It's what stupid people do. Truly. They have nothing else and certainly have no empathy. It's lizard brain all the way. So what you really need to ask yourself is, "why should I care at all what someone who I have no respect for thinks about me?" It hurt, because you are human and that was f******g lame, but truly, I promise you, it was for her to hear, not for you. Let it go and don't be afraid, just be kind and genuine and you will find your person. That was NOT your defining moment. That was a defining moment with a totally gross specimen that you just need to laugh off and move on and be glad it was only one interaction 😄

Please don't take the experience you had to the entire gender. She was a piece of s**t but it doesn't have to do with you, I hope you forget her. I'm amazed to observe how nearly everyone has a random comment said by people who have psychological issues affect them so much, I know a lot of similar stories mainly with things on appearance said by girls (classmates, sister, mother) but I've heard the occasional hurtful comment by boys as well, these are usually not on appearance exactly but on levels of sexiness and s**t shaming.

A friend in the area who knew how to drive a stick went with me to pick up the Toyota on Friday. We picked it up in the morning and we spent the whole weekend driving that little car up and down the hilly residential roads around his house. I drove that car to work on Monday."

(edit: scrolled down and realized there's another person with a similar story) EDIT: When it comes to me personally then the worst that comes to mind is some blokes with a car trying to steal my newspaper cart during a summer job once upon a time. When I was doing the rounds at around 4-5 am. It wasn't too scary at the time, I was mainly angry at them, but thinking back I can imagine how the situation might've escalated if they hadn't been clearly high off their asses and scared of me calling the cops.

When I was ten or so a man started to scream at me and hit me with a newspaper. Afterwards I think I managed to figure out what happened. He angrily said that I was "smelling" being a bullied kid I assumed he meant that I was dirty, I was in actuality suffering from hay fever and he assumed my sniffling was me mocking him. He was an immigrant and it was "normal" for racist people to say that immigrants were smelly. Several adults intervened and helped me run out from the subway train.

Without thinking, I swung my notebook & the 2 books I was carrying right into his privates. He proceeded to fall down the metal stairs, hurting himself. He lied to the teacher who came over, his assistant principal and his parents. Luckily, I had a witness who backed me up. Turns out he was a 17yo senior. My age meant he could have been charged with pedophilia (age of consent was 16). He was suspended for several weeks and sent to a different school.

She says "daddy that man is SCARY I want to go home" He was in front of them at guest services cause they had to return a birthday present. My husband notices the man has a huge gun down his pants so he steps forward to protect my daughter as the man was trying to pull it out. He tripped and was trying to tell the very pretty girl behind the counter to come with him like a hostage but he tripped and couldn't get out the gun so he ran out the door. Cops were everywhere they got held up for 2 hours being questioned but he got away. I couldn't figure out what kind of idiot would rob guest services at the end of the night since they return money nor take it in. Then a few days later the same guy kidnapped a woman at a gas station up the street, carjacking her with her in the car and took her to the next county over and raped her. He was looking for a woman to take not money that night at Target. Very terrifying

Silly interaction number two is a little bittersweet, but the punchline's worth it. Just a couple of months ago, I had spent the day at my guy, George's, hospital bedside, basically watching him die, there was nothing more we could do. After a long day, I was physically and mentally exhausted, catching my breath on an outdoor bench, my Chicken Purse on my lap (a purse that looks like a black furry rooster, but I call it a chicken 'cause it's funnier). This man walks out of the building and, without breaking his stride, points at me and shouts, "That's a mighty big c**k you've got there!", and I just exploded in much needed laughter. If you believe in "that stuff", I like to think that was my goodbye from George. He jokingly hated the purse, but loved the reactions people had to it, mostly kids. The comment just fit his humour perfectly.

I used to live in a town where every summer we had a little festival. During one week, street artists would perform for free in several places and people could come and watch and give some money if they felt like it. My sisters and friends would often go with my bf and me to this festival. One night, my boyfriend and I accompanied my younger sister back to her car. On the parking lot we came across a woman who seemed tired and scared. She was in her car and she said that her son (who was apparently sleeping in his bed in a building not far from where we were standing) had to get up and get into the car with her because they had to go to France (I live in Switzerland). But he was not in the mood and he was a big bloke and she could not convince him/move him alone. So she wanted us to come with her, to her place and help her wake her son up and convince him to go to the car with her. We explained her that we would not be able to do that but that we could call the police if she needed us to.

Just before we pass each, he reaches out and grabs me between the legs.I was only 13, but I have an older sister. Without thinking, I swung my notebook & the 2 books I was carrying right into his privates. He proceeded to fall down the metal stairs, hurting himself. He lied to the teacher who came over, his assistant principal and his parents. Luckily, I had a witness who backed me up. Turns out he was a 17yo senior. My age meant he could have been charged with pedophilia (age of consent was 16). He was suspended for several weeks and sent to a different school.

Couldn't even make it past the 5th post. This article just proves that the next gamma ray burst or planet-resurfacing asteroid can't come soon enough. Humanity has turned into a seething mass of anger, hatred, rage, aggression and idiocy. Time for the next species to step up and take over.

Was about 12 or 13 and my friend and I were walking through a park and some older teenager was sitting in the bushes having a wank. We ran home and told my friends mum but she didn't believe us.

In January of this year in Charles County, MD my husband and daughter were at Target. A man walked by and made really intense eye contact with My 10 yr old. She says "daddy that man is SCARY I want to go home" He was in front of them at guest services cause they had to return a birthday present. My husband notices the man has a huge gun down his pants so he steps forward to protect my daughter as the man was trying to pull it out. He tripped and was trying to tell the very pretty girl behind the counter to come with him like a hostage but he tripped and couldn't get out the gun so he ran out the door. Cops were everywhere they got held up for 2 hours being questioned but he got away. I couldn't figure out what kind of idiot would rob guest services at the end of the night since they return money nor take it in. Then a few days later the same guy kidnapped a woman at a gas station up the street, carjacking her with her in the car and took her to the next county over and raped her. He was looking for a woman to take not money that night at Target. Very terrifying

Silly interaction number two is a little bittersweet, but the punchline's worth it. Just a couple of months ago, I had spent the day at my guy, George's, hospital bedside, basically watching him die, there was nothing more we could do. After a long day, I was physically and mentally exhausted, catching my breath on an outdoor bench, my Chicken Purse on my lap (a purse that looks like a black furry rooster, but I call it a chicken 'cause it's funnier). This man walks out of the building and, without breaking his stride, points at me and shouts, "That's a mighty big c**k you've got there!", and I just exploded in much needed laughter. If you believe in "that stuff", I like to think that was my goodbye from George. He jokingly hated the purse, but loved the reactions people had to it, mostly kids. The comment just fit his humour perfectly.

I used to live in a town where every summer we had a little festival. During one week, street artists would perform for free in several places and people could come and watch and give some money if they felt like it. My sisters and friends would often go with my bf and me to this festival. One night, my boyfriend and I accompanied my younger sister back to her car. On the parking lot we came across a woman who seemed tired and scared. She was in her car and she said that her son (who was apparently sleeping in his bed in a building not far from where we were standing) had to get up and get into the car with her because they had to go to France (I live in Switzerland). But he was not in the mood and he was a big bloke and she could not convince him/move him alone. So she wanted us to come with her, to her place and help her wake her son up and convince him to go to the car with her. We explained her that we would not be able to do that but that we could call the police if she needed us to.

But she didn't want that. She then went away (driving or walking I don't remember). I made sure my sister safely left with her car and texted me when she was back home.
