Embarrassing, Weird, Shopping and Awkward: Making a scene

Making a scene

By becca1417 - 01/09/2009 22:21 - United States

Today, I was at the mall in a store looking at movie posters. I turned around and suddenly saw a creepy guy smiling at me, holding his arms out wide. I screamed, "Holy shit!" really loudly, causing everyone to stop and stare at me funny. Then I realized the creepy man was a cardboard cutout. FML

Today, I was in the gas station and I saw this creepy lady staring at me and smiling. She just didn't stop. I even gave an awkward wave to let her know that I saw her staring at me. Finally I decided to confront the woman, turns out the overly happy woman was a cardboard cut out FML

Today, I was shopping for clothes. I thought this guy was a mannequin because he was standing perfectly still. I poked him and he screamed like a girl. FML

Today, I realized just how shy and awkward I really am when I averted my eyes to avoid making eye contact with someone who turned out to be a cardboard cut-out. FML

Today, while walking home after a night of partying, I saw a thin, bald person in a suit looking at me from across the street. I got flashbacks to the Slender Man, screamed like a little bitch and ran. Then I realized I'd just humiliated myself in front of some random guy waiting for a bus. FML

My new friend

Today, I realized at the train station that every day for a month, I've been waving to a cardboard cut-out of a person in the morning. I thought they were real. They're cardboard. FML

Today, I was at the mall and I noticed this guy staring at me from across the food court. He smiled and waved at me so I walked over there and tried to talk to him. He was looking at his girlfriend the whole time. FML

Today, I was at a restaurant, and I saw my friend. When we made eye contact, I made a creepy face at her and twitched my arms to make her laugh. A woman looked over said sadly, "Oh my God, that poor girl!" She thought I was "special." FML

Today, I was at work at Walmart, casually walking in the middle of the store, when my foot caught on something, so I went flying forward and yelled, being caught off guard, to the point I had to pretend I was running for 3 seconds, then someone blocked my path so I suddenly had to stop. Everyone was staring at me. FML

Hey!

Today, I was waiting in line at a clothes store when someone cut in in front of me, and the gentlemen in front of me. I shouted, "Hey! Queue starts back here!". He responded by pointing out the "gentlemen" in front was actually a very realistic mannequin. FML

Creeped out

By hotandbothered - 03/02/2010 06:24 - United States

Today, I was developing film at Walmart. It started to get a little warm, so I began taking my sweatshirt off. A creepy old man approached me, saying "You know, usually girls like you are paid to take their clothes off." FML

Bahaha. I did the same thing about a week ago! It's ******* scary when you see some weird dude randomly appear in your periff right when you step your way out of a dark movie room. I screamed "OH ****!" as loud as possible and it took 45.6 seconds to realize that it was, infact, not real... :/ The problem is that I already saw the life-size cardboard cut-out on my way in xD....

This shit happens to me ALL THE TIME. It's traumatizing, really. I always get this feeling that I'm being watched in FYE, but then I realize it's just Hannah Montana.

I has a similar expirence. I was on my front porch one night and this dude was stnading by the neighbors house staring at me. I was pretty creeped out so I went inside, double checked all the locks, loaded my gun, and layed down to sleep. I woke the next morning after no incident, got in my truck to go to work and a NASCAR cutout by the neighbors trash cans caught my eye. LOL I felt like and ass but not that my life sucked.

Pooe mannix, the fact that you have to see Hannah Montana in FYE really does blow. I think the only cardboard thing we have in our FYE is Robert Pattinson. Oh wait we have the Jonnas Brothers to :/
