Some weirdo was following me around the grocery store

[u4ic]

this evening.

I thought I must be imagining it until I had to leave the line for the second time to find something I had forgotten. And a second time, he followed me. Luckily I ran into someone I knew, and he disappeared after that.

This is the second time this week - another was at the drug store across the parking lot.

It seems almost every time that I go shopping within a certain block, I encounter these people.


Sometimes I think I have some invisible invitation on my forehead only 'they' can see. :tinfoilhat:

[Whoa_Nelly]

1. Invisible Invitation!

Yup! Some guys "see" things they only wish were there!

Did it make you feel kinda creepy-ish?

u4ic! :hug:

[u4ic]

2. Hi Nelly!

:loveya:

How are you this evening? :hug:

Put it this way - I wouldn't be surprised if that guy was expecting the mothership to pick him up outside the door. :freak:

I got quite a creepy vibe from him, and I rarely get those. Except when I shop in that area! :P

[Whoa_Nelly]

5. u4ic! Am good tonight!

Mothership to pick him up!!! :spray: :rofl:


have run into a few of those myself :silly:

[u4ic]

6. I seem to, on more occasions than I care to admit

maybe...




THEY are invading! :o

[SeattleGirl]

3. That's freaky!

I'm glad you ran into someone you knew! :hug:

[u4ic]

7. Oh yes! and he's a big guy

I'll have to thank him next time I see him.


:hug:

[Starbucks Anarchist]

4. My bad.

:hide:

[u4ic]

8. Are you kidding?

If you flashed your smile, I would have melted. :loveya:

[Starbucks Anarchist]

11. Or been creeped out -- it's a toss-up.

:rofl:

[u4ic]

13. I like when the end of the story

leaves you hanging...:D

[Starbucks Anarchist]

15. LOL.

:D

[alittlelark]

9. You need a good exfoliant to eradicate the 'invitation'

Apri Apricot Facial Scrub is a good one - if you are not allergic to tree nuts. If you are allergic to tree nuts (as am I) I would suggest soaking '60 grit' sandpaper in water - the grit will fall off. Mix the grit with mayonnaise and scrub the 'invitation' spot for at least 25 minutes.....you will get good results!

[Critters2]

10. I'll pass that on.

That should do it. Thanks!

[u4ic]

12. Just curious

if I exfoliate my forehead to that extent, then won't everyone be able to read my thoughts? :o


Thanks for the tip! :hi:

[alittlelark]

17. Not if you do it for PRECISELY 25 minutes.

It has something to do with magnetic properties, ions and mayonnaise.

[Left Is Write]

21. May I suggest Mary Kay's microdermabrasion set?

:P

[Oeditpus Rex]

14. A weirdo, perhaps

But a weirdo with impeccable taste.

:7

[u4ic]

16. Hmmm...

come to think about it...you have a moustache, don't you???

[Oeditpus Rex]

18. Uh...

I might...









...and I might not.









:hide:

[leftofthedial]

19. no!

I really needed all that stuff--the ice cream, the feminine hygeine products, the swizzle sticks . . .

[u4ic]

24. Can I have some, too?

I forgot that stuff. :P

[leftofthedial]

30. well I followed you down all those aisles

you must have been nervous

[Guava Jelly]

20. You cant just avoid me u4ic

:evilgrin:
Be careful my friend..
I can't imagine anyone wanting to stalk such a beautiful lady like you.:sarcasm: (well besides me):silly:
You need me to come up there and kick some ass for you?

[u4ic]

25. We've already ascertained it was Oeditpus Rex

:P

[REDKING]

22. I havent left the house all day......

swear to god.....hehehe:P

[u4ic]

26. Hmmm...he did have red hair...

:think:


How are you, redking? Long time no see. :hi:

[Kali]

23. Probably security.

They aren't as sly as they think they are.

[u4ic]

27. I saw him in the parking lot

as I was leaving. He left before me.

I've never encountered one that obvious. :crazy:

[krispos42]

28. "The Frozen North"....

Are you in my area, the Twin Cities?

'cuz I can throw my kid in the car, come down, and, um, 'discourage' the follower if you wish...

[u4ic]

35. Nah...I mean the

real frozen north....Canada.

Thanks for the offer, though. :pals: :hi:

[SPKrazy]

29. I think it was me

i was in Canada

and i was in the grocery store

and i saw this really cute woman who made me euphoric even... :P


and I followed her around and then she started talking to someone and I decided I wouldn't bother her.

So I left.

:shrug:

[pokerfan]

31. I assume then

that you had a bag boy (girl) walk you to your car.

Safety in numbers.

[u4ic]

36. No, I didn't

Across the (rather small) parking lot is a police station. :-)

If I was very concerned, then I would have no problem asking the staff for help.

[Sanctified]

32. If you have had this issue twice in one week.

You should probably think of investing in something for self defense like pepper spray, stun gun or an actual gun. My wife was assaulted one time by a stalker who we thought to be harmless, it scared the shit out of her and now she carries a pistol.

[u4ic]

38. It wasn't the same person

Just an area with a lot of 'interesting' people.

Interesting as in artists, interesting as in yahoos who start riots when their hockey team doesn't win, and interesting as in...ah..."interesting"...;)

I'm sorry to hear about your wife's experience. How awful. :( :hug:

[ForrestGump]

33. An invisible invitation on your forehead?

At least you don't go to supermarkets with things written on your face, like....um....some people do. :blush:

If any of these characters invade your comfort zone again, please just hit me with the GumpSignal and I'll be up there with in a flash. :loveya:

Nobody better be messing with you. Me get very Neanderthal with that sort of carry-on. :grr:

[u4ic]

40. How am I supposed to alert this Neanderthal?

Smoke signals? :P

The guy is lucky I didn't use The on him...:scared:



At least the cashier knew you were happy! :D

[ForrestGump]

45. Actually, she sold me four Icees

:P


And, yes, he is indeed fortunate that you did not deploy







The Eyebrow. :scared:







:hide:








No smoke signals necessary...I'll just home in on your hotness.... :D


:loveya:

[u4ic]

46. She sold

you four Icees? :o


For how much? ;)




:hug:

[ForrestGump]

49. How much? Sixty-

nine, dude! :D

[ellie]

34. Welcome to the club!

All of us members have "Psycho Magnet" permanently etched into our foreheads. We also give off the psycho magnet vibe that attracts weirdos, nonconformists, and the like to us within a 10-mile radius. My entire family is affected.

[texanwitch]

39. I used to be that way.

It isn't so bad anymore.

I made friends with 3 people who were crazy, I didn't know it at the time.

They seemed normal at the time.

[u4ic]

41. That's me!

I can deal with the non-conformists, or people who think outside the box - but yes, I do seem to get my share of real oddballs, too...:silly:

[elshiva]

37. Who can resist you? You are wonderful.

[u4ic]

42. Hi elshiva!

How are you? :hug: :hi:

[elshiva]

43. Hi, u4ic!

Do you want a brain massage still? :hug:

[u4ic]

48. Please, yes!

Heck, I'll even be happy with a short scalp massage...:hug:

[Wapsie B]

44. OMG, he's still following you around?

That was two days ago. :P

[u4ic]

47. I've hired him

as my valet. :P
