    I was walking down the sidewalk, and I was coming up behind another fellow who was walking slowly. When I was just a few feet behind him, I must have stepped on a stick or a leaf or something, and it made a cracking sound. The guy turns around facing me and shouts “YOU DIDN’T BREAK THEM EGGS, DID YA?” Surprised, and having never encountered an actual crazy person before, I simply informed him that I did not, in fact, break the eggs.

    At this point, he begins walking alongside me, and talking about some stuff that doesn’t really make any sense to me. I try to be polite and chat a bit, but I’m really just hoping for him to leave me alone.

    He finally says “I want to give you this”, and he hands me what appeared to be a blue glass object, about the size of a small stone. He proceeds to tell me that if I have this object, the ladies won’t be able to resist me. He continues “now let me show you how to use it. First of all, you gotta keep it in a safe place”, and then he proceeds to pull another of these objects OUT OF HIS MOUTH.

    I thanked him for his kindness and hurried on my way, just wondering if there was anywhere nearby that I might be able to wash my hands. After I put some distance between us, I looked back at him, just in time to see him turn towards another person, and I could faintly hear: “YOU DIDN’T BREAK THEM EGGS, DID YA?”
