The most memorable strangers you've ever met.

I met an old man a few years ago at a rather dull social engagement. In a room full of uptight individuals, this guy was a shining beacon of entertainment. He spouted off one-liners, cracked jokes about how boring everyone was at the engagement as everyone turned their noses up at him. Dude had me laughing so hard I literally had tears in my eyes. At one point, the man's son walks up to him with a very stern look on his face. You could clearly see that he was rather pissed off by his father's antics. When I hear the old man reply.. "Son, I'm 92 years old. In five or ten years, I'll be gone from this pace and I'll be damned if you or anyone else stops me from enjoying each and every second of it." I bought the man a scotch and walked up to shake his hand. I find myself thinking of him every so often. It's been several years now, and I really envy the man's ability to be.. just so damn happy at such a point in his life. Have you ever met someone briefly that you still remember to this day? Lets hear the story.

  • This one girl I shared a train ride with back to London. Snow had caused disruptions so we had been waiting for a long time. I thought she was cute and offered her some gum and started talking. She was about 24. Very interesting individual. Got along very well with her and at the end when we separated paths at the London Underground I asked what was her full name (which I forgot) and she gave me a hug. She offered me to stay at her place whenever for a concert or whatever in London. I wonder what ever became of her, it was almost a year ago. I hate myself for forgetting her name. Also another girl I met at a Stone Roses concert as well.
