Sad but true. Have had some quite odd sunday experiences recently. I always used to put sunday freaks down to the fact that I was mashed; but 15 weeks into a clean bender I have realised that, no, I wan't mistaken, Sunday is Freaks Ahoy Day.

You want to wear aluminium foil to deflect radio waves while you have a radio gaffer-taped to your head??? Do it on Sunday. Preferably outside Revolver between, say, 5-11am.

Had this dude out the front of our old store one morning, and he was on the other side of Bell Street.
Still to this day can't work out what he was doing...
He'd walk along the street, and about every 50 metres or so he'd pull his dick out, step up to the gutter, facing the trafic, bow three times, then tuck himself in and move on.
I really didn't grasp what he was doing, but man I got a laugh out of it.
More of that shit I says! :smt005

I've come to the somewhat depressing realisation that the local weirdo is ME!!!!. :smt101

Not one to shy away from my social responsiblities as the local weirdo, I've taken to walking up to people on trams and telling them I have yellow socks on today, that pineapples are not as conservative as you might think, and always insisting that anybody refer to me by my proper title "Grand Admiral of the Interstellar Badminton Sect of Tonka Toy Enthusiasts".

my local weirdo isn't that weird and he gets a fair bit of support and handouts from the local business.

He sits near the Jam Factory with a ukalele (sp?) and various music books. he studies the music on the page for ages before he starts and then he just strums wildly and yells incoherent songs.

a while ago I saw a photo of him up on stage with Dexters band (think it was at St Jeromes laneway festy) rockin out. nice one

harmless though

There was a guy at Melbourne Uni we used to call "Albie". An albino activist... handing out 'no nuclear power stations' flyers printed on 100% virgin hardwood.

We usd to play "where's Albie"... a variation on Where's Wally/Waldo.

Winner (first one to spot him handing out flyers) got a free jug of beer.

In Adelaide there was a guy who had his name changed by Deed Poll to Marijuana Free,

so that when there was an election, he would be

"Free Marijuana".


He used to sleep under a bridge and stank like a cess-pit with haliotosis.

Bloke on the #55 tram, shortly, sharply yells expletives. Moments later he makes intense crying noises.

Normally I'd let this pass and have a giggle with my housemate later on.

Until one day I'm on the tram and this guy is doing his usual routine, I look at him and notice he's a Commonwealth Games volunteer....

ha, I remember that guy from when I lived in coburg (03/04)... creepy, loud, generally annoying on crowded morning tram.

We have two local weirdos..... first is "possum guy"; he's a middle aged french guy with a long scruffy beard who comes to flagstaff gardens to feed and "frollick" with the possums.... creepy as. He talks to them, pats them etc.. I saw him once sitting on the ground with possums crawling all over him while muttering something along the lines of "yes, yes my pretties!" in a thick french accent

:shudder:


the next is "Army guy"; this dude sits in the balcony area of a cafe on the corner of william and latrobe streets, when the cafe is closed of course.

He sits on a milk crate, basically all night, wearing army greens, he has the full army drinking flagon, roll-up bedding etc with him. He just sits in the one spot all night staring at everyone and smoking champion ruby. Sometimes in the early morning you can see the aftermath of his night, 50 rolly butts on the ground next to a green milk crate.

2 years I've lived here, and this dude has been on "stake-out" almost every night.

wtf???? :?:

lol, good thread

2 of my local wierdos spring to mind
1st one is a guy who has two border collies/kelpie crosses, his dogs are psycho energetic and he harnesses them up and rides behind them on his roller blades down Chapel st, which is kinda cool, but then he tops it off with rather eccentric dressing and a large rooster like mohawk thing on his helmet.
2nd one is this relatively young man who juggles wherever he walks, just a show off i guess

cyunt
Word is in St Kilda, those bums you see at 3 in the morning outside 7/11 have quite a lot of money...
The ones on Fitzroy street? Man I once saw 2 b boys bust eachother for a few bucks outside that one.

One guy doing magic and shit, fucking dick wipe on his BMX wants some action trys to steal the crowd, ITS ON!!!!






We got this guy who goes to the park across from work, 2 actually.

Ones called Dog Whisperer because every day he screams at his dog as if it was his wife and she just brought light beer instead of beer.

Other is called Gerkin Guy, because, we were having lunch at the place that has the best lemon chicken ever and he's like,
"How much for a sandwiche with 2 gerkins" lady goes $2.
"Can I have it for $1.30."
"Ummmmmm no, $2"
"I donttttt work, I'm onnnnn benefits"

Well fuck buddy, your not much more retarded than I am and if I can get a job I'm sure as fuck you can.
Like, it was a pitty case. If I cross the street and he crosses, even if he walks behind me he'll go "NERRRXXXCUSE ME.. AV YA GAWTT ENY SPAIRRRRRRRRRRR CHAYYYYNJJJJ"

There another guy who I see everyday driving home, leaving the 711. He's fucking HUGE and his clothes dont fit and his ass crack hangs put and I swear you could fit a polar bears head up there and his belly hangs out to and fucken, its bad.
Its enough to turn a women into a rug muncher.

We have this other guy, a courier who comes to work, his face looks a bit like its made of pebbles. Like he has really textured skin, but, he fuckkking reeks like, tobacco and dog shit. Like he's been having anal sex with a puppy in a pool of tobacco and hasn't washed his cock for ages. He looks a bit like that guy from Sin City, the one Mickey Rourke plays, but, alot shorter, fatter, uglier. ... Stinkier. ..

And we have the man bitch. .. We don't know if its a guy or a chick but its boobs are non existant, it has an adams apple but has long hair like a women, wears make up, does its nails etc, and his/her voice is like... Ok imagine if Barry White had a vagina. This guy/girls voice would be a bit higher pitched than that but not by much.

theres a guy called angry man, he has long orange hair, and always looks furious, he also rocks metalica shirts, and has been in sleeveless tee's walking angrily about the neighborhood or sitting like a robot at bus stops, me n my brother followed him once and he was yelling at parked cars then muttered to himself something about law, we think he may have been a lawyer or maybe a criminal in his past happy life. hes been spotted with a basketball and throwing it at cars too.


theres also "running man" who goes to southland shopping centre every single day with a blue backpack on, sometimes with a bandana and big headphones, and holds the cd hes listening to in his hand, and then runs around in short sprints, sometimes jumping over chairs and tables, theres a facebook group about him
