Cant think of any offhand... but the thread topic reminds me of this story from a few years ago and always make me laugh
"" OCONOMOWOC, Wis. — A man said he broke into an apartment with a cavalry sword because he thought he heard a woman being raped, but the sound actually was from a pornographic movie his upstairs neighbor was watching. “Now I feel stupid,” said James Van Iveren, who has been charged in the case. “This really is nothing, nothing but a mistake.” According to a criminal complaint, the neighbor told police that Van Iveren pounded on the door and kicked it open without warning Feb. 12, damaging the frame and lock. “Where is she?” Van Iveren demanded, thrusting the sword at the neighbor, the complaint said. “Where is she?” The neighbor told police Van Iveren became increasingly aggressive as he repeated the question, insisting that he had heard a woman being raped. The complaint said that, with the sword pointed at him, the neighbor led Van Iveren throughout the apartment, opening closet doors to prove he was alone. The neighbor later played for police the part of the DVD he believed Van Iveren heard downstairs. Van Iveren, 39, of Oconomowoc, was charged with criminal trespass, criminal damage and disorderly conduct, all while using a dangerous weapon, and is due in court March 5. Together, the misdemeanor counts carry a maximum sentence of 33 months in jail. Van Iveren said Tuesday that he heard a woman “screaming for help,” grabbed the sword, bounded up the stairs, kicked in the apartment door and confronted the man who lived there."" http://www.nbcnews.com/id/17261433/ns/us_news-weird_news/t/wis-mans-good-intentions-die-sword/ |

Describe a (weird or very strange) conversation or argument you have overheard... * someone on the phone, someone in the next room, someone in line at a check out , in a restaurant.. anywhere* I was at a pharmacy and a pregnant (like 8 months super belly) teen came in with a friend, she was talking about being 16. While in line she was talking to her friend about prom, and all the things they had to do, and their dress styles, and how dreamy and fun it was going to be, and then the guys they were going with. It almost sounded like a conversation had by 8 year old girls playing dress up prom princess. When she got to the window she wanted to talk to the pharmacist about the medicine she was taking. She listed out all of these just horrible side effects. Like vaginosis, incontinence, bloody stool, hemorrhoids, nausea, nipple leakage, fatigue, and scabes or some kind of flaky scaly rash, and so much more. It was like I was listening to the end of the worst drug commercial ever made. When the pharmacist went back into the pharmacy the teen just turned to her friend like nothing was going on and started talking about hair styles because they were going to the salon after the pharmacist. Not really a "weird" or strange conversation but it just seemed messed up. She talked really loud. Like maybe she was blaming the pharmacist for the side effects. |

*In an aggressive voice, shouting * "DON'T CALL ME GREEDY! I'M NOT GREEDY. DON'T TRY ME, OR I'LL COME OVER THERE, AND KNOCK YOU OUT!". It was obviously scary hearing that. I'm used to it. Heard a lot of conversations similar to that. It made me wonder why the person thought he was greedy. Then he was shouting about how he hates his sisters fat friend Pauline. And that this Pauline was a scruffy woman. And then a woman he was with, was laughing about it. Maybe they BOTH don't like her. Anyway, who needs soap drama's, when you can listen to silly drama going on where you live? Actually, there's quite a lot of people who have gone off this Pauline woman, because they tell me she's becoming a horrible person. They can't believe how she's turned all rotten. Sounds like she's got a bad reputation.

I've been involved in some strange conversations. At the skydiving center:
Me: Ok, that will be $229 for your tandem jump, unless you want to add video or stills Her: No video or pictures, and it's $114. Me: No, it's $229 Her: No, it's half, because my boy friend and I are going together. Me: You will be on the same plane, but you each have your own instructor, so it's $229 Her: We do? Why? we want to be hooked up to each other, he ain't gonna go if he's gotta be strapped to some guy. Me: we can't let you do that, and I promise our guys aren't going to make him feel uncomfortable. Her: Why can't we go together? Me: Don't you think it's important to have someone who knows what their doing with you? Her: (heavy sigh) WHY? Me: Because otherwise you could die. Her: WHAT? We could die? |

A guy called... "hey, I'm doing a skydive today, I was wondering what kind of underwear I should wear?" I was SO tempted to tell him either a lacy thong or Depends. But I behaved, and told him his usual was fine.

I overheard a man on the phone, telling someone " I'm sorry, I can't today, I'm babysitting".
It caught my attention, because this guy is over 60 yrs old, & didn't say "grandchildren". So I asked him " You have a daycare center? " He replied laughing " Oh no! My youngest 2, I have 6 kids & my wife is working today, so I'm babysitting.. ...helping out"  His poor, overworked, overwhelmed, over burdened, unappreciated wife..... & he thinks he is doing HER & HIS kids a FAVOR  * Yes, he is a Natural Born American... because I just HAD to know... what culture thinks like this?  * |

Two conversations stand out in my mind both from walmart..first one I am standing on hair dye row looking for my box of Loreal because "I am worth it" and this lady.comes up next to me who is short and rather round and badly in need of doing her roots. now I know this because she came up to about my elbow so when she spoke I had to look down at her. she very nicely asked what kind I used and I pointed it out and she said how much she loved my hair and I said thanks well as I was walking down the aisle her husband says." Don't matter how many of those boxes you dump on your head you ain't ever.gonna look like her" I could have easily turned around and strangled him with cord from one of curling irons

She just stopped talking and looked completely deflated.

which is not to say that they both don't deserve the old switcheroo on what they hope is coming next.
