Weirdest thing ever said to you?

Juts found a group on Facebook where people have been contributing weird things that have been said to them in the past.

I'll start with two frightening ones that have been said to me by (relative) strangers.

1- "If you cut off your fringe and stuck up your hair, you'd look like a white Grace Jones".

2- "I'm not being funny but are you a Jew? You could easily pass of as a Jew".

Two isn't that strange but the "I'm not being funny..." always puzzles me.

    Well I asked and she said it was more to do with my skin tone- do Jewish people have a specific skin tone?

    And as for Grace Jones, they said it was down to cheekbones!

    I think they were meant as compliments but were totally delivered in the strangest way!

    I got asked, in front of a crowd of people, very recently, if there was "a touch of the tar-brush" about me. My father is Italian and I have dark hair and eyes - but the phrase used sounded so insulting and so racist.

    When I was younger, in the city centre, this bloke who was a giant of a man dressed like some viking, stomped up to me and my mates, shouted at the top of his voice "DIRTY EVIL SPIRITS" and marched away. Fook knows what that was all about.

    I was once asked if I had ever "known" a man buy a guy dressed as a fisherman who claimed to be the king of Scotland and was looking for a wife.

    I also had a wierd old lady come up to me in the street and said I had "the gift".

    Oh I had a weird old lady come up to me and tell me my daughter would be fine and not to worry at all. At the time I had no daughter, just two little boys.
    I do have a daughter now and she is very sick - I sometimes wonder if the weird old lady was psychic and that my child will get well.:(

    A woman I worked with asked me if I was gay.

    When I replied I wasn't she said," No, I would know if you were gay."

    If she would know then why would she ask me?

    What a weird thing to say.

    Weirdest thing someone ever said to me was "Johnny Depp's ok but I just don't fancy him." :eek:

    Is that even humanly possible?

    No. That is just totally impossible.

    Was she one of these middle-aged motherly types who still think they've got what it takes?

    Cows do have beautiful eyes though - with lovely long lashes. He wasn't a farmer or a vet was he?

    "Can I buy a strap on and do you up the bum" ....asked by an ex girlfriend out of the blue at a party, we were talking about our favourite films at the time. Yes, EX, we weren't together at the time and I was with someone else too.

    I politely declined.

    I walked past a group of boys on my way to school earlier in the year. Didn't know them, to the best of memory had never spoken to them. Didn't stop one of them from talking to me.

    Random boy: Have you ever seen the film Adulthood?

    Me: No...

    Random boy: Well, you look like the girl from Adulthood.

    I had no idea which girl he was on about, and therefore no idea whether to take this as a compliment or insult, so I just sort of shrugged it off. I did later look at one of the promo posters which had two girls in it, but as one of them was black and the other was Scarlet Johnson, I'm still none the wiser.:D


    I also had someone start a really random Facebook convo with me. Well, I say convo, it was more them posting a long list of sex acts that one of our mutual friends apparently wanted to do with me. My reaction was... "What the hell?...:confused:", but I managed to get my brain in gear long enough to just play along and laugh it off until she got bored, which she did quite quickly. Still clueless as to what she was trying to do, though. It was a real life Big Lipped Alligator Moment. :D

    I was once walking through town to my place of work and a total stranger said to me:

    "Tosser".

    I replied: "F**k off"

    The we both carried on our way :D

    "Let me introduce you to my friend Billy the Knife. We'd both really like to chain you to a radiator while we butt f*ck you."

    Thankfully I was able to get me and my pissed friend out of that situation pretty sharpish.

    No, he was neither which added to my anxiety! He lived in the middle of a city, what was his interest in cows??!!! I am 47 now so that was 30 years ago I have never forgotten it, I am truly scarred by his comments. My eyes remain big, brown with long lashes though ;):)
