Funny Things To Do With Strangers

Hold the door open for them. When they say "Thank you," reply like this: "Fo Rizzle." That's all you have to say. But say it quickly, sort of under your breathe, to make them think you're actually saying something else. If they ask you if you're trying to rap, then you can play it off and say something like, "kinda." But chances are, they won't be tuned into the fun you're having. They'll be consumed in their own world. So, you can really get away with saying a lot more than just those two things. But, to get started, that's all you really need to do. Oh, and say it with the kindest smile. Because, we all know, non-verbal communication is king.

Ask someone, "How's your day?" And then ask a follow-up question, like "Do you like to fish?" Be prepared for them to hesitate. But you must not give up your resolve on this. Stay the course. Don't show your hand. You can't give in and say, "I'm just kidding," like you would feel the urge to do. Of course, they will ask why you want to know. So, be prepared with a follow up response. Maybe it would be a good idea at this point to try to restore their confidence in them--that you won't be taking their money or stealing their small children. So, at this point, you could say something about the weather. Or, better yet, you could basically compliment them on something they do well or the way they dress. (It should be noted, when all else fails, a compliment helps). On the other hand, the more you talk at this point, the greater the chances the police will be called to arrest you. So, sometimes smiling and being polite is the best way to bring a random encounter back to peace with itself.

When at a convenience store, sing to the cashier for no reason. Then, act confused if they talk to you. This one needs no explanation. It will be funny by itself. And it's not about holding a conversation.

Compliments are super cool, especially for things not usually given thought. Next time you see a stranger, compliment him/her on the way they say "hello" or something random like that. Don't explain a whole lot about why you think it's a nice way of saying hello. The less you describe your feelings, the better. You don't wanna come across as a weirdo. And then, they might slap you up-side the head. But, if you do it right, they will think you're really swell and a fun cat to hang out with. A word of advice, though: you don't want to attract weirdos, either. It's all fun and games until you make friends with a serial killer. Pick your fun battles wisely, friend.

Stand outside a restaurant and pull out a pack of gum. Make it a goal to hand out the whole pack of gum to old people. You see, you can't very well give away gum to a middle-aged person. They will think you're crazy and have gone quite mad. And a teenager will think you've spiked it with something. A toddler would take it, but his/her parents probably would be offended and suspicious. So, take my advice on this. Stick to old people with the gum routine.
