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.

    I met an awkward geeky guy named Craig once that lived in the same apartment building as a friend and his roommate. Well once, after a night of toking, he came over and was joking around and laughing quite a lot for not having smoked with us. He ended up laughing so much that his mustache fell, and started sagging in front of his lip. One of my friends calmly looked at him as was like, "Yo man your mustache fell." Craig looked all embarrassed like and ran his finger over it real fast to fix it. And us? We couldn't contain the laughter. Craig will forever be the man whose mustache fell from his face.
