I saw a man riding one of those super tall unicycles down the shoulder of the highway today.
Anything odd in your neck of the woods?

A lady who lives in a neighboring apartment complex walks her cat at night. I kind of love it.

This morning: a woman riding down the street in her scooter carrying a cat (in a harness and leash) and yelling “stop it! Stop it!” at the cat the entire way.

We had a family that all rode unicycles. Dad was an expert and we'd see him riding past our house on a tall one or a regular one. It was sweet to see him and three kids riding unis together.
Odd this week would be my teen actually up and around before 8am.

Monday night I walked my dog before bedtime and the lady in the building across the street yelled corona at me a couple of times.
It was weird.

Yesterday, my 15 year old DS asked me to buy him a long handled swiffer so he could clean the ceiling fan and cobwebs near the ceiling. You bet your booty I placed a Target pickup and got it into his hands the same day. He even googled to see what product would work the best, so knew exactly what I should buy. That was pretty surprising.

My husband rides a unicycle, has 2 different sizes of giraffes and 3 other sizes. I want to get him a penny farthing, but cant afford it right now. However, he doesn't ride down the highway.

We just got home from visiting daughter and her family in Pittsford, New York. Every day we saw a shirtless guy on a unicycle, juggling, riding along the Erie Canal. Made us smile every time. The oddest thing we saw at home was last night. A coroner's vehicle pulled in to the neighbor's house down the street. Apparently a friend of the son od'd...

I haven’t seen anything quirky lately. 🙁 I miss when I worked just north of downtown. I saw the weirdest shit every single day. It was awesome. There was a man who always wore cut off jean shorts and a tube top who would spend the entire day dancing through intersection cross walks.
Another guy year round would wear this long black leather trench coat with jeans, no shirt and a huge pentagram necklace. But here Is the kicker, he would be dragging a huge 8 foot wooden cross on his back. Kinda mixed signals. That’s just the tip of the iceberg.

I wonder if they lived together before becoming homeless, or if they were homeless separately and hooked up?

Older guy driving a shiny little red tractor (not a riding lawnmower, like a miniature John Deere) down the street in front of my house, while drinking a beer.

My DH sent me a picture today of a truck he saw with a ginormous inflatable flamingo pool float strapped down in the bed. The wings were sticking out over the edge.

This was a couple weeks ago, but still just strange. A lady standing in the drive thru banking lane (even though the bank is open inside). She was yelling. I guess she thought the banker couldn’t hear her? Anyway, she wanted to open a savings account (while the rest of us were patiently waiting to do our banking) separate from her checking account, but she wanted to put enough in her checking account to pay for a really nice dinner for her family of maybe 10-13 at Black Angus because they take her to nice places and she wants to return the favor and could the teller please figure out how much that would cost. Ummmmm..... ok lol After about 10 mins the teller finally said “ma’am, I’m going to deposit all of this check in your checking account and after your nice dinner out come back and we will open a savings and transfer some money into it”. She tried to argue but the teller asked her to please look at the line of cars waiting to do their banking and she finally took her items and walked off.
When I pulled up to the window the teller apologized and I just laughed and said “no apology needed, we are living in the twilight zone” She laughed and said “you’ve got that right, that wasn’t even the oddest one today”.

There are three girls, probably one is a young teen, one could be around 10 and the youngest maybe five or six all riding a scooter around the neighborhood with no helmets (all three on one scooter). Brilliant!!
Tonight a lady keeps driving up and down my street in one of those three wheeled motorcycles. I’m not close enough but something about it makes me feel like it’s a grown up toy instead of a real motorcycle... but I could be wrong.
That’s all I guess ... I did see two random buffalos in a field ... but that isn’t all that unusual for Colorado.

I just ordered a pair of shoes from a Facebook ad from another country and in finalizing the order it had $ boxes to select the tip I might want to add. I chose the 'none' box!

I haven't seen anything odd but some assholes where blowing moose calls from 12:30am until 1:30am. WTAF!?! We live in a valley so hard to pin point where it was coming from.

Over the past year or so, since joining the gym....several of the workout outfits (on women and men) that I've seen, in my opinion....are questionable. Until this week.....I had no idea that a lace thong, can be worn over/on top of a pair of spandex style workout leggings.

Not so much odd, as unexpected and adorable: our garden cam picked up a family of badgers with 4 cubs gambolling around and rolling over each other for half an hour, then a fox family with 3 cubs doing almost the same thing. THEN, a roe buck just chilling on the lawn before daybreak. I want to live at your house!

I am getting a good laugh from some of these.
Not today, but recently... the man across the street is HUGE, as in tall, broad and obese, riding a teeny tiny child size lawnmower to mow his yard.
