What's the most surreal thing someone in the street has said to you?

I once had a cyclist slow down and ask for the time.. as he rode past me he turned his head back looking at me as he awaited a reply. Obviously not looking where he was going, he veered off the path into long grass and bushes.

He was too embarrassed to look back at me again and just rode off without the time.
 
Whilst sat eating lunch on a bench in Sheffield city centre I noticed a group of student-y types stood about twenty yards away talking amongst themselves but not really hiding the fact they were talking about me. A few surreptitious glances across and stuff.

Then two of them came over and bluntly asked 'are you her off Emmerdale?'

:confused:
 
I was in Edinburgh outside a club one night sitting on the kerb as I was so drunk. A guy came up to me and asked "Do you know where there's a gay bar around here?", to which I replied "no". He then asked if I'd like to help him find one but I declined. At the time I didn't realise that he was probably trying to bum me.
 
Random local in Italy comes up to me and asks "Harry Potter?" whilst holding out a peace of paper and a pen to me. Sadly for me this was on a school trip and there were witnesses:o. Cue the start of an era of complete strangers approaching me on the street to tell me I look like the teenage wizard. Thank god for contact lenses.
 
Some guy when I was working on checkouts came up to me and said rather exuberantly something along the lines of "Cloudy lemon! I just had to buy it!"

Referring to a cloudy lemon cordial drink.
 
Years ago I was on my lunch break from the computer shop I worked in and had popped to get a sandwich. On the way back some random guy just walked up to me and said '******* copper!' in a very aggressive manner and then walked away. I was wearing regular black trousers, polished shoes, white shirt and company tie while sporting 2 days stubble and bad hair. Needless to say it was a WTF moment.

I have also been asked if I would like to indulge in various dubious acts while walking across Durdham Down on the way home from the pub in the past but I suspect that may not be unusual :eek:.
 
I was stood waiting for the cash machine wearing my name tag from work, a guy turned around, looked at my name tag and said "Oh, youre name is Dale? My wife had a similar name, but she's dead now"

Walking near my house some bloke shouted "have you seen billy and his bag of **** at me. On the last bus home just me and drunk old man,he gets up sits down next to me and says "hello me baby" he was irish i told him to do one,then he just kept giving me the ira hand gesture all the way home.
 
"Oh, are you going to Chester!?"

From some drunk (meaning absolutely hammered) guy who then told me how he had just bean released from prison and that I shouldn't 'mess' with him.

Pointed him in the direction of a train going in completely the wrong direction. I hope he got on.

****ed scouse dude who likes to show off his heroin needles on the bus/train?

if so i've had the misfortune of sharing a bus with him from chestser.
 
Had an older gentlemen, a bit eccentric come up to me while I was working, asking me about the lunar eclipse. He went off on one about having an open mind, aliens, the government, and the end of the world. That went on for 20 minutes as I wasn't sure exactly what to say to the poor fool.

"Aren't you a bit old to worry about that sort of thing?"
 
''my husband's away. come back to mine and screw me''.
