for me, it would have to be a few hours ago when it happened. a mate and i were going around camden town in london just like every other saturday, just minding our own business and this weird guy comes up to us and asks us these weird questions: "do you speak english?" i reply, "yes...why?" then he says "do you come from hollywood?" my mate says "you what?" so he repeats himself and i reply, "um...noooo." i got a bit freaked out so we moved on.
what's your story?

Your experience could have been the start of an elaborate attempt to extract a few pounds from you, i.e. professional begging. This sort of thing happens to me a lot. You can imagine where the conversation would go.... First, the beggar flatters you by pretending to mistake you for a famous attractive film star..... eventually he asks you for a few quid, allegedly for a tube fare say, by this time you're so flattered by his adulation that you'd give him your house.

got asked to teach someone from a foreign country's son to sing 3 times a week for 2 months. Then they told me that if I was to be paid I would have to receive money from their contact who owed them money (!) subtract the money that I would be owed to pay for the lessons and then send the rest back to undisclosed country through western union- can only think that would be something to do with money laundering? Freaked me out a bit that they contacted me in the first place and knew so much about me !

Some body once cam up to me while i was in the middle of a conversation with another person. He then felt my beard and said "Furry!" This creeped me out. I dont like people touching my facial hair. I am also known for my Rabbi-like beard so taht might have caused it.

in the mall a lady asked me if I liked the baby clothing that she was looking at.
I told her yes, she said well it is for my brother's son.
I said great.
She said well i have not talked to him in 10 years because he molested me. But I wanted to let him know that I forgive him so I can meet my nephew....
(not sure what to say after that one)
I just said, OH, well that outfit is really cute.
I thought that there would be a trail of flames in the floor as I tried to get away from her!

when i came down from Alaska to live with my grandparents some kid from my new school asked "if i had a penguin for a pet?" i said no but he kept going on asking other stupid questions like "did you get eaten by a polar bear?" and I'm standing in front of him completely intact. so i said "yes that is why I'm a ghost." he believed me and started running.

Somebody once said to me "Would you like to go large on that order, Sir", which was strange, because I was in Le Manoir au Quatre Cents Livres at the time.

I walked into a new age store in Tacoma WA, and the psychic told me I was looking for a deck of tarot cards and I was having trouble picking between the Robin Wood deck and the Witches deck.
She was right! Weird!

In downtown Los Angeles one time, a complete stranger came up to me and said " The whole world wants you, you know that don't you?"
He looked perfectly normal but it struck me as funny as all he-ll, I just LOL and kept walking.
