Extremely Weird Happenings

[Melufa]

Got any out of the ordinary happenings? They can be weird, funny, or both.

Around 2 AM I was out on the porch, taking a couple of drinks with some friends. I hear the blare of a police siren, turn towards the street to the left, and notice a drunk guy on a lawnmower, cruising in the middle along the yellow line. The cop car is behind him, lights a flashing, the cop leaning out of the window trying to yell at the guy to stop. Lawnmower man appears calm and is either ignoring the cop, or can't hear him. This goes on for about ten minutes (we're now at the side of the road watching in amusement) until they reach a stoplight down the street, and the cop finally breaks and jumps out of his car. He runs after the guy until he finally catches up with him and pulls him off.

One time when I walked out of my house towards my car (going to college) and I saw a squirrel in a fight with a bird. Actually, the bird was kicking the squirrels ass. It was running all over the place and down the street while the bird kept diving in on it and owning it.

A couple of weeks ago I went to an Argos game. That's the Toronto Argonauts of the Canadian Football League for those who don't know. When I told this story to Epi, he thought that was the punch line, but the story continues.

Anyways, I was alone at the game because my buddy had to cancel and work the late shift that night. No big deal, but that just means I have no witness. My seat was just 12 rows from the field and I had a good view down the 5 yard line. That means that I get a great view when the actions on this end, but I can't see squat when they go down the other end. That's alright though because the Argos cheerleaders were right in front of us for two quarters (they have two squads that rotate around the corners of the fields). So when the action was down the field during the second quarter, I had the cheerleaders to keep my attention.

This story involves one particular cheerleader in that squad. She was at the end of their formation when they were showing their moves and I soon noticed that she kept looking in my direction. Of course, me being the love machine that I am, I naturally assumed whe was looking at someone behind me. Again, I was fairly close to field level and there were easily hundreds of people behind me. That sort of thing happens to me often . She looked vaguely familiar though, but there was a turnover on the field so the game drew my attention again.

Anyways, a few plays later I noticed that she was looking my way again, this time she was sneaking a small wave in my direction. This time I could have sworn she was looking directly at me. Now, right then I decided I should do something. If my buddy was there and this was happening to him, he would have done his usual move, which was to suddenly sit up straight and look around him to see who she was waving at like a groundhog looking for his shadow. She looked vaguely familiar, so I decided to be a bit smoother, so I just stared straight at her, smiled and nodded my head knowingly. That way if she was looking at me, she'd see me responding; but if she was looking at someone else, she wouldn't have even noticed it. After I did that, she raised her hand, extended her thumb and pinky finger and did the universal "call me" signal. And then it was half time, so the cheerleaders all rushed to the field for their half time dance. Since the cheerleaders kept rotating every quarter, I knew that they'd be at the other side of the field for the next half so I wouldn't be able to investigate further.

And that's when I thought: okay, I know she did the "call me" signal right after my head nod, and she really did look very familiar. On the other hand, I would have known if I had the phone number of a professional cheerleader, and I assuredly did not. I decided that she couldn't have been looking at me and that some guy a few rows behind me was thumbing through his cell phone's address book at that very moment. I thought little more about it and enjoyed a thrilling second half as the Argos beat the Ottawa Renegades.

When I got home a couple hours later, I went to look up the Argos cheerleaders' website. I found the one that I noticed and read her bio. It turned out she went to my school and had also graduated from the faculty of education. Then I remembered, we had a couple of classes together. I DID know her. I still didn't have her number, but I did know her. Bah. I gotta get tickets to another home game.

I was in the car with my friend Dragan and umm we were driving down sherbourne. All of a sudden I see a red ferrari pull up beside us, I turn around to get a closer look and it turns out to be Tie Domi from the Toronto Maple Leafs. That car was mint.

Believe it or not, a bat flew into my room. We caught it and set it free again. Jackets are good nets, I can vouch for it.

Ok well I live in the middle of nowhere so not much exciting stuff happens around here. Someone once bought a new trashcan for their business and painted it red, and that made front page news in the village newspaper. So anyway, one night I was asleep when all of the sudden it gets really loud. After getting over my grogginess, I figure out it's a helicopter. At 3 in the morning? What's going on? Turns out that my neighbor (a mile down the road) heard someone in the woods screaming for help and asking for someone to save her, followed by a really loud gunshot. So they had to bring copters in from Columbus and it was so loud and police spent the whole friggin night searching those woods.
The victim and culprit?
An escaped goat.

I liked the first punchline better.

[RabbitRapist]

there's a streetlight outside my house.

about a week ago, a bike appeared, chained to the light. everyone in my street has a garden, so it makes no sense to leave a bike outside.

then as of yesterday, there are now 3 bikes chained to this light...

BUT WHY ?
