| In keeping with the subject, I once saw a woman, on line 1, stare at me while she proceeded to pick her nose and eat the results....3 times. It was almost as if she dared me to look away, which I was unable to do. Score one for you, strange booger-eater subway lady! |

| I went to Itaewon's Country Festival or whatever last year and some guy had on a bandana, a streamer shirt, and leather pants singing a song with "미친놈" (crazy bastard) plastered across his back. |

That just sounds like truth in advertising. |

| Sat next to a family that unravelled a giant picnic in the food court of Hyundai Dept. Store last night. Stew, rice, sides, and dessert with juice boxes and coffee. I get the saving money thing, but is they were shopping at Hyundai. |

The vast majority of Koreans don't read books. What's the point of talking about ebooks?
A few days ago a visibly deranged guy walking in the middle of a busy street, as if trying to get hit by a car, started running after me while screaming "Nixon!!! Nixon!! Nixon!!" After getting a cold shoulder while attempting to hug me, and a thumbs down for Nixon, he seemed very perplexed.... Same thing happened 5 hrs later, although this time, he kept his distance. |

That is really annoying when someone does that, isn't it? Hopefully you wrote that down and will remember this the next time you do that very same thing (you do it a lot, btw). |
I honestly just skip when certain posters post a long meaningless rant. They're trying to make there point so well known and heard they dont realize nobody is listening. If they would keep it more concise and stop repeating themselves we might listen to them. |

Did you get to see if they were nice and juicy?  |

Actually every day for quite a long time I've heard a weird "dog bark" coming from the street as I've been sitting in my apartment. (I'm currently living in downtown Vancouver, so this is not in Korea) and it occurred at exactly the same time every day. It sounded dog-like but human... And one day I wanted to check out what kind of dog was making that weird bark. Well it turns out it was a guy. He seemed to be "barking" involuntarily. Over the last few months I've lived here, I've seen him and passed by him. He looks to be a student (always wears a backpack) and approximately 25 years old. He looks Asian, and specifically looks Korean. I'm not inferring it's the same guy that you saw, but the "dog barking" condition really does exist... And the first time I thought he was a weirdo but now I've realized it must be something like Tourette's or could actually be Tourette's syndrome... It seems he really cannot control it.
Anyways, I'd really not want to spend much time around this guy as that constant "barking" would really get on my nerves. It's already annoying enough to hear it when he walks down the street. |

Maybe the driver was going into Family Mart to get him some dog food. Did you notice if he hung his head out the car window as they took off? My dog loves to do that! |

| I saw a guy at the gym last week put his smartphone smack dab in the middle of his chest right before bench pressing. It brought this thread to mind. |

I teach at a low level high school. I have a student with that condition in my class. He makes barking sounds often. It is involuntary. So loud though. (Very loud.) I am really surprised about that part. It makes teaching the class he is in difficult and stressful. But it is not his fault though. It is a tic or Tourette's or something. |

FWIW, my phone would be safe placed there too. I rarely bring the bar to my chest. |

Recently I was running along a river and saw a wonan ahead of me stop every few steps, pick up a rock, and throw it back down as hard as she could.
Saw her do it 3 times before I ran past, but I imagine she kept doing it. Maybe she never stopped? |

But the phone wasn't safe. When he reached up for the bar, it slid up against his throat and then down onto the floor.
Maybe you've got some special reason why you don't do a full movement. If not: http://www.schwarzenegger.com/fitness/post/bench-press-101
Personally, I find dumbbell presses to be a lot easier on the shoulders. But even then, I wouldn't put some electronic device on my chest while I was pumping it up.  |
