Do crazy people live near you?

[Sheepo]

I know this one lady in my neighborhood is like infamous. She is called Boxlady. This is her porch about a year ago

A few months later she added a tarp

Since then she has stacked even more up until a few days ago, the door was no longer visible. Then, a few days later, every single box was gone. We wondered if she had made some sort of recovery until today, when there was a lone box on her porch.

She also has boxes stacked up to the ceiling in her garage, filling her car completely, and I can't say for the rest of it. With a closer look, my friends and I realized she was ordering them from QVC

Thoughts/other crazy neighbors?

 

[highlander]

Call cops. NOW.


At my old house, my neighbors has marijuana plants poking over the top of our fence :|

I tried too sell him wood once, I was about 11

 

[Tollbooth Willie]

Do I count?

This thread is so awesome. I think I'm just going to hang out in here from now on and press refresh.

 

[elkaebee]

A guy on my street only pushes his bike. Never rides it, just walks it several dozen kilometres each day, every day, just pushing it, wind hail or sleet(if it ever sleets in the hole in the sky through which things can fly).

 

[VirusType2]

It didn't work out that well for Jesus, from what I've heard.

 

[MJ12]

my dad responded with "hey, JESUS FLIPPED TABLES!", something they apparently didn't get....

 

[Krynn72]

There used to be a homeless guy who slept on this bench outside of Albertsons. Every day for two years he was there, and I walked past him at several different times of the day, and he would just be sitting there. He never asked for money, so im not entirely sure he was homeless, he may have just been crazy. But I know that he went into Albertsons for the bathroom, and sometimes got food. One day we asked him why he sat out there every day and he told us, in broken sentences, that he was waiting for an old friend to come and pick him up and take him to some tropical island i forget the name of. It was kind of sad because he was so lonely.

But for the last 5 months i was at school he had disappeared. We like to think his friend finally came, but in all honesty hes probably dead.

That's very sad yet darkly humored. It would make a great indie flick about him. I wonder what his name could be....

 

[dfc05]

There's a crazy dude that lives at the end of my street. Sometimes he goes outside late at night and yells things.

 

[Bad^Hat]

There's a woman around here we call Bev the Bus. The name is a double meaning, the first of which you can probably guess, but also because as long as anybody has known she's had a dingy, broken down old bus sitting in her driveway for some reason. Her husband is this hairy guy everyone calls Wolf, for obvious reasons (his beard is ****ing epic). Anyway, they're not really crazy as such, more just kind of weird and iconic. Most people know of them because their house is on the main stretch leading into town, and it's ****ing unsightly - trash everywhere and grass that's been growing freely for years, apparently tourist buses stop outside occasionally to snap pictures. It actually got to the point where they appeared on a show called Neighbours at War because the woman next to them was fed up with having to look at it. She'd been appealing to the council for years unsuccessfully... unsurprising considering our town is a hole anyway. The show built them a trellis on top of the dividing fence and called it a day, which is all fine and well except it's still a ****ing dump.

Yeap... pretty much the most interesting thing to ever happen around here.

Edit - Oh, except that weird dude who used to live across from me, glared out of his window at people as they passed and occasionally threatened kids with a gun if they hung around or something. But he died and there's a nice couple living there now.

Poor guy

 

[Raziaar]

Reminds me of a homeless guy who lived in Alaska in our town of Eagle River. We all used to gossip about him and stuff, the regular stuff stupid kids do. My dad would occasionally take him things and talk to him, so we sort of developed more respect for the guy.

My dad said he was ex-military who had his home foreclosed on him and other stuff from government ass rape.

I wonder if he's still alive... and hopefully living a better life.

Though I fear maybe he froze to death some winter, because it gets very cold there and it's not exactly a large town where you can just take shelter in many sorts of buildings. His home was on an unused lot of land and he had sort of a bum shelter built up there... which is where my dad walked to to visit him occasionally.

 

[Que-Ever]

lots of hobos, dunno if they're exactly crazy though.

 

[Ravioli]

There is a family of uber creepy Christians down the street.

They are extremely odd, almost alien like, all their children are like socially retarded aliens.

Infact, one of their kids is partially retarded and once had a hit list in grade school. he also peed in our bathroom radiator and stunk the whole place up.

Once the oldest one (about 7 yrs older than me) kicked my balls when I was in 1st grade, so my older brother saw this (also 7 yrs older than me), while this kid was standing in between a door way and a brick wall, so my brother just smashed him between the two with the door, took his umbrella and broke it, then I told him that his mother looked like a hampster.

....We got called down to their house, our father went with us.... they brought down their hampster too.... and then they told us how we should love and get along like Jesus.

flanders?

 

[Raziaar]

then I told him that his mother looked like a hampster.

Ice cold dude!

 

[VirusType2]

^ touching story. Your friend looks like he time-travelled from 1970

 

[MJ12]

Ahhh, Vince, man, he's da man...

This is a picture of him in a bathrobe reading a bible to our friend jill for the weirdest/creepiest ****ing school video we have ever made, not that you care-


Edit:

Ice cold dude!

I was 7 years old, man!

You know what, screw you Raziaar, you know what, you, you look like a f*cking armadillo, f*ck you!

 

[VirusType2]

Also, moar pics of girl.

 

[Danimal]

Some really disturbing people come into work, this one older woman came in after a Budgie(Parakeet, whatever.), luckily I didn't give it to her, because she told me she killed her last one in an oven.

"Because it was cold."

God, I wish I could determine if people are allowed to keep pets or not before giving it to them.

 

[Azner]

Theres this man that lives outside my school in Potong Pasir. We think hes either retarded or just acting retarded. He wears shorts that are really short, singlet, shades and dances around with either cloth or a stick.

Here are some videos we took with his permission. And yes we are talking in everyday Singaporean slang.

Haha that is awesome. I think I've seen him before.

There is a crazy guy who lives around my school area (Bishan). He is a gay man, and his partner is some military guy supposedly. He goes to the Mac Outlet near the shopping center there on school days, and takes pictures of boys from my school, and he smiles at all the boys. Scary. Here is a video of him (not by me) Just go to 20s

[Remus]

Well there are actually multiple crazy dudes around here but the most famous is the "angry dude" we call him. This guy comes out at random times and just patrols in the center of town muttering stuff to himself and screaming and accusing random people on the street of being part of the "securitate" (comunist secret police) LOL.

Another nut is this old guy that rides around town on a bicycle with 3 huge romanian flags attached to it LOL.

 

[Eejit]

Crazy people near me?

I go to uni in Glasgow...

[MFD00M]

We have a guy named suit man who always walks to Mcdonalds wearing a different suit everyday, and if you ask him about his past, he insists that he's a cyborg who got a stuck here on a recon mission. Theres also "shoes" who has an enormous beard and loves to break dance behind our local chinese restaurant.

Alaska? Ex-military?
OMG, it's Solid Snake!

 

[Sheepo]

Update: Lone box has been picked up. It seems she is actually ordering them for a reason now... or maybe that's how it always starts. Either way, there are still boxes stacked to the roof in her garage.

 

[Terminator]

Haha, theres this old woman who has a little house that is falling apart, junk from old bikes, railings, signs and wood is PILED high in the front garden, the windows are newspapered over and there is a 1970's CCTV camera (non functioning i bet) positioned in front of window, god knows what the inside looks like.

About 2 years ago there was an issue about a wall being built near their land and councilors went into the house and were held hostage for 24hrs by the woman and her son with a crossbow and a bow and arrow!

The police armed response was called n everything.

The woman is very well known around the area and can often be seen picking stuff up.

There is also an old guy in my village who has the nickname 'flaps' (due to wearing a trapper hat with very long ear flaps), he has a walnut face and picks up stones and talks in gibberish, one day he put his arm around me and mumbled something about "the other side"


Here is the story about the siege

The officers were called to a property in Oxford Street, above, after a man barricaded himself in his home in an attempt to prevent building work being carried out to a nearby premises.

The incident attracted widespread media attention and led to Oxford Street being closed off for several days.

The Burnham-On-Sea siege in 2004 attracted widespread media coverageThe man inside was unhappy about work being carried out nearby and threatened the workmen.

He removed roof tiles and emerged through a hole in the roof brandishing a petrol bomb.

A police support group entered the property to remove an elderly occupant to safety, and three of the officers spoke to the man in an attempt to calm him down, but were doused with petrol in the process.

The man set fire to the petrol, causing a fireball which spread across an area of the house - setting fire to PC Neil Holand, PC Paul Fox and PC Shad Hussain.

The officers managed to put the flames out and sprayed CS spray into the loft space. Other officers, who accessed the property from a different direction, then arrested the man. He was charged with arson with intent to endanger life.

 

[SamuraiKenji]

^ Three guesses what happened to him


And live NEAR crazy people?
Hell man my entire family is crazy
Me being the most insane!

 

[Hellrider]

I used to leave near an old woman,that was shouting on me from her window when I was throwing garbage in some trash can near her house.
She was shouting "Don't throw garbage in my trash can !!!" , and she was shouting that a lot.
She also seemed to be sitting near the window all day long looking for people passing near her dear trash can.

 

[hool10]

Some of you people are describing my mom. My family and especially my mom has a vendetta against the people in front of our house because they use our driveway as a turn-a-round. So she monitors the driveway and puts trash barrels in front of the entrance at all times. Calls them the Italian stallions too because they are Italian. Anywho I don't have any crazy stories except for the 2 redneck families that live on the end of my street. One of them lets their dogs roam and shit in everybodies yard. Once I saw a Mario mushroom growing out a piece of dog shit in their yard and I instantly thought "oh cool it's a real life Mario mushroom! It's probably deadly though". The other built like some sort of granite wall that went around some trees that took forever to build and my family jokes that it's the Great Wall of China. They let their kids run all over peoples yard too and I have an old Air Force veteran for a neighbor who keeps his lawn perfect and hates the kids for walking on his lawn.

I also got some old asshole woman that lives in the back of me. She started bitching at my dad and I that we were not burning at the right time of year and it was illegal to do that. She literally got out of her house started walking with a friend and wanted to bitch at us. We got tons of flooding rain the previous week as well. She claimed that the smoke was getting in her house yet there was no wind and it was 40 degrees, much too cold to have your windows down. So she was pointing her fingers at us like an old bitchy woman does. So my mom catches her the following day and says "sorry and you don't have to be rude to my family". She just bitches at my mom and wags her finger in her face which makes my mom pissed off. She starts yelling at her to make her embarrassed and points her finger in her face. So the lady walks away quickly and calls the cops. The cop is like "wtf am I doing here for" and tells my mom to "ignore her and not talk to her". Stupid bitch comes walking near our house to this day yet she feels threatened. I could talk about a story I had in Boston. It involved a homeless person making a tricycle, Mr. Hyde stalking my mom and I, a heavy metal rock concert, and a flooded Boston. Maybe a bit later.

*Oh yea I did have a crazy person. He used to sun tan in his drive way and looked like he was on a deserted island. Complete bum who was like a limo driver only in a van, personal transportation driver idk. Bank closed him down for some reason and took his house. So the last night he demolished a fence that I always called "The Sandlot" fence. Turns out there was some mini basketball court, and tons of long grass back there. Smashed his mailbox and broke 1 pillar supporting the roof of the front of his porch.

 

[Gazork0]

Anywho I don't have any crazy stories except for....

That's quite a lot of crazy you've posted there :E

 

[NeptuneUK]

I'm a student living in Scotland.. with other students..

Do normal people live near me!?

 

[The Monkey]

We have this woman down the street who is a ****ing looney. She thinks she was a spy for the British during WWII, and also the nanny for our crown princess during the 70s. Her husband is blind and mute, and sometimes she comes to the neighbours (thankfully not us) in the middle of the night, claiming there's a strange man in her house. It turns out it's actually her husband, locked into the bathroom, trying to get out.

There's a woman around here we call Bev the Bus. The name is a double meaning, the first of which you can probably guess, but also because as long as anybody has known she's had a dingy, broken down old bus sitting in her driveway for some reason.

Haha, I saw that episode when I was down there!

Were you on the screen at any time? If not, you missed any opportunity. That was your chance to shine!

 

[Bad^Hat]

I saw that episode when I was down there!

Were you on the screen any time?

Nah, but the pub they were in is a 2 minute walk from here.

*feels all fancy and such, like-a dems city folk*

 

[Stene]

Well, there was few years ago this guy called "Hammaslasse" or translated as "Tooth-Lasse". He had these freaky teeth that were more like brown than yellow. He was usually offering candy for kids and sometimes just randomly appeared and talked about stuff. He moved away and was then seen for last time at one trainstation shouting to people.

Then there was right near him this other old guy, "Schizophrenic". Me and my friends were from ages 6-8, and used to go on the playground on "his" houses. I mean that is apartment place and in the middle is this playground. Then always when we got there, he came from his door shouting for us to go to hell from here and also called cops once that kids are harassing him at his alley. And then once he also chased us but we got away. Then we decided to go to other places, that was just crazy man. Dunno if he lives there anymore.

Then, not "crazy", more of interesting, one friend of mine has for his whole life collected some warfare stuff in his house. The whole house is full of some nazi/soviet/finnish WW2 uniforms, gasmasks and medals. He also has alot of katanas there. My parents think that is quite weird but he is cool guy, I once wore one of his soviet uniforms.

For the list of "annoyed old men" I could make damn long one, because near us lived/lives alot of these people who "hate children". Of course we won't get any complaints if we just walk somewhere, but when we were younger there were these crazy assholes that came into their apartment balconys shouting us ****ing kids to go away. Alot of them. As kids we just somehow had this image on the people that we are just some nature terrorists. Of course I understand it clearer now as some guys blew some damn dynamite at an abandoned house, but it isn't like we all should be blamed.
