WEIRD!

omg just went out to go to the bank and some drunk (slightly) skinhead man with a giant tattoo all over his face walked over to me and …gave me a jacket!?! o.O this reminds me of kyle abbotts and Luke abbotts experience with the nice homeless dude giving you jackets…

anyways… i just put the jacket in the wash even though it smells clean… might try it on later…
but that is very strange…

its the style of jacket i wear though and its in my size too x.x;;

^.^ its a nice jacket though <3

It is always homeless psychology wanting to look on somebody else down and give a thing or money nicely. Taxi drivers in Japan often get some extra money from homeless kind of people, and if you are kind enough to accept, it makes him satisfied.
Although you are not happy to get the thing, it does not matter for him. It is just for him wanting look down on someone else.Because he or she has been always looked down on.
Sad thing to come across. Sorry, Cana. (;_;)
Cheer up and practice shamisen!

hmm, i remember being homeless but he didnt really seem homeless… he walked out of a pub… went across street towards me an asked if i wanted it… was very strange but yea i took it as he was abit drunk i think, or just an extremely cheerful person :3

just abit odd he would have a womans jacket…?
he didnt seem the type to wear them at all and a 12 wouldnt’ave fitted him…

Will play shamisen an try it on later ^.^ was nice of him and i always need more jackets ^.^

OR the guy just commited a murder and you washed away the evidence!

3> yea i suspected that… buuuuti cant say no to free sadly…

Karl might be on to something there :stuck_out_tongue:
I’m kinda curious as to what it looks like now if I’m honest lol

hmm its all black… black faux furr hood 4 pockets… slim design

sweet

yea ^^ just like my other one but my other one is abit more fuzzy on the inside :slight_smile:

Wow. It’s been a trippy week for all of us.

drunk friendly man handing out jackets . . . okay benefit of doubt as for potential background stories :slight_smile: as for the homeless taking pride in giving something out in the sort of very way it seems to be mentioned here I wasn’t aware of that but that is cool for sure . . .

as for the latest weird and slightly drunk I met on taxi duty in broad daylight a couple of days ago that was not so friendly . . . I was waiting outside a hotel entrance for a customer when a passer by asked me for my cell phone and said he would sit inside the cab to make a call . . . okay first of all I am expecting a customer any second to come through the doors, second the commanding tone of his request could not make any sane person expect a generous response, third he was somewhat filthy in general and wearing a dry blood stained shirt and I was not keen on cleaning cell phone and cab for up to an hour before anyone would feel comfortable with touching either of them again and he was not injured or in any similar emergency situation otherwise I would drive a wet bleeding guy to the hospital and feel good about it but that guy seemed rather unstable and definitely filthy and in no kind of emergency I would need to care about so I offered to make a call for him and asked him for the number and what message to relay . . . well he did not like that and screamed “Nobody calls but me” followed by “I will take your cell phone away from you. I can do that.”

anyway that whole exchange was out of the blue and strange and sort of unbelievable and if you can believe that I had never been physically threatened before so this was a first I felt a little uneasy although on the other hand I felt up for the fight actually and inclined to challenge what he claimed he could do . . . a couple of seconds of staring at each other and I decided on deescalating and made it clear that I would not hand over my cell phone by shrugging and saying something to the effect of and quite literally I said about yeah well sorry . . . after some further staring at each other he turned away and walked on cursing about taxi drivers in general that we would have to take our job seriously or would always run into trouble . . .

anyway or whatever as he stopped to look back again and await my response another whatever gesture of the friendly yeah okay sort made him continue down the sidewalk and out of my sight which was fine with me . . .

I’m usually the guy giving out the clothes…

I still have that three piece suit you gave me a while back Grant!
thanks a lot dude!

I’m usually the guy giving out the clothes…

^^

BH your storys abit scary o.O
seemed to have gone down well in the end though
glad your okay ^^

I agree! What a story from BH! And just as Cana said, glad you got through it safely! Sounds more like the guy was trippin than drunk.
Maybe he was suffering from borderline personality disorder or something. Who knows.

lol the guy sounds like my roommate ._.
hes scary when drunk and creepy every time i go near him or hear him… from my room right now hes raging on games and talking to himself… and answering himself telling himself jokes…

will be glad for new house… lolz

okay update… jacket is freakin awesome and i love it ^.^ its all try and its very very very warm :slight_smile: nice and long too and the hood is huge and baggy which i like plenty of pockets but not too many… its very very awesome :slight_smile: may play shamisen in it from now on xD
it even has zips on the wrists to the elbow so i can tie back the sides if they were to get in the way :slight_smile:

I dub you… Mr lucky jacket!

yeah well it was just so random out of nowhere and what you wouldn’t expect standing outside a hotel in this town as you are sipping on a coffee to go . . .

as for presents to strangers I know I got the happiest response from a parking lot guard I was packing up my stuff in and around the rental car on a beach parking lot in LA in order to fly home later that day and gave a couple of left over budweisers I had in the trunk to the parking lot guard and he was totally happy about that :slight_smile:

after I had offered a view of all the stuff I had in the car to anyone around in the process of my packing I asked him to kindly watch my car while I would take a farewell california jump into the ocean and he was so nice to say “you don’t look like a tourist” so I was happy too . . .

Man, these weirdos you’ve guys come across sure sounds like most of the voices in my head.

冗談。。冗談!
