I snipped the first post because for some reason two images posted and two sets of the same text.
My towns population is of about 60000 people. It's a fairly small town, but there are SO many crazy people it's unbelievable. I don't have any pics of them unfortunately. Here's a few:
The Garbage Lady: An old woman who collected garbage bags all over town and put them inside and outside her house. The bags literally COVERED her house. The smell near it was unbelievable. The cats loved it though.
The Wanderer: A seemingly normal guy except for his trusty water bottle. He just wandered around town all day long and never said anything. Sometimes he ran too and then drinked from his bottle as if he was training for a marathon.
Tarzan: My favourite one. He's a tall white guy, walks around "camouflaged" with mud on his face, tree leaves glued or tied all over his body and (I swear) a traffic cone painted green on top of his head. He's got a bike too, all camouflaged with leaves and shit. Never says anything, just wanders. Once he tried to climb a tree at the local park, fell down and broke a leg :v:
Enio: A small black homeless dude, walks around and scares people screaming "WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT". I've seen him chase with a knife one guy who punched him in the face, was pretty scary. Unfortunately he froze to death in the middle of the street one winter night.
Black Beetle: Fat black lady, walks around singing. Sometimes she takes off her shirt and walks around singing AND topless. Her huge black tits aren't something you'd like to look at.
Ximbica: VERY old lady, walks around with so much make up she actually looks like a clown. Kids laugh and throw stuff at her (I've done it too when I was a kid) and she gets REALLY mad and chases them around.
Smile: Quite good looking dude, always with his hair cut, beard shaved and a clean shirt. Walks around and inside the local mall always smiling. Sometimes he talks to himself and sometimes he looks like he's having a discussion with an invisible person. It's the only times he's not smiling.
Believe me there's a lot many. These are the most famous ones, but you don't see them around anymore. I think the police take them to other towns or whatever. They're always recycled, old ones go away and new ones appear.
So, yeah, my town is full of crazy people.

I'm surprised I found a picture of him online
Name's Randy TJ. He lives (I presume) in Horseshoe Bay, in Vancouver BC, near where I live. He comes up to you and says "hey, what kind of music do you like?" And goes on to try to sell you his CD.
"If you've got any roaches let me know, folks"
[QUOTE=cheesedelux;30281162]No pictures or videos but there's quite a few near me (South Edinburgh).
There's one lady with a very sad looking dog, she's about 70, very tall and skinny, there's no local name for her or anything since her public appearances are rare. Whether she's in the street or on the bus, she rants. Constantly rants. One day I had a pleasure of sitting down beside her on a crowded bus. She wasn't in a particularly good mood.
During her ranting she would occasionally be quiet, turn around and stare at me. Then another old lady got on the bus and sat beside her, clearly unaware what she was getting herself in to. Being friendly she said "Nice day, isn't it?".
Some quotes from the ensuing rant:
"No, no it's a bad day." "They made me go to the doctors and he told me I had Paper Bag Syndrome. He tried to give me an injection I told him no YOU have paper bag syndrome and you need the bloody injection fucking doctors." "What the fuck is the government doing, bloody Gordon Brown what is he doing? Making me go to doctors." "Yes. I'm here. And if you don't like it you'll just have to DEAL WITH IT" "Gordon Brown is the problem, that's who! And if you can't face that when you wake up in the morning then you'll [mumbles]"
Note that this took place in 2010, Gordon Brown wasn't the Prime Minister.
There was another old lady who lived across the road from my granny in a massive house by herself. She had a huge grey Emmet-Brown-alike wig which she would always adjust (Practically taking off in the process) . Sometimes she would stop you in the street and just start quietly rambling, occasionally throwing in an insult.
There was a man who was walking normally down the street in front of me and my friend in the mid-afternoon. Suddenly he stopped and started shouting at an upstairs window across the street with a bird cage in it to "TURN OUT THAT LIGHT!" repeatedly like an air raid warden in the second world war. Thing is, he was only about 40.
Until a year or two ago there was a man who would write passages from the bible or just random things about heaven and hell in chalk all over the walls of the supermarket. When they painted the wall white, he went across the street and did it on the shop there. Never saw him do it, but it was always there.
The rest of them are mostly silent or very occasional, but at certain times of the month there's a psychiatric ward nearby and there's always a ton of them - maybe they give them their medication or whatever. Mostly drunks. At least one elderly bad transvestite.
Oh man I just googled Paper Bag Syndrome. :v:[/QUOTE]
When I was in London for a few weeks (I'm American) I went to get breakfast at one of these epic pubs but for some reason no one was really there other than the bar tender. So we walked in to get our food and about five minutes later this crazy ass (About 75-80 year old) lady walks in, sits right down beside us and begins to rant. She started ranting about the food and the bar tender gave her a free sandwhich and she kept ranting.
She kept ranting about America, the President, and the American people, I think she failed to realize we were American.
Anyways when she got up her entire backside was soaked wet and the chair was wet with piss, she departed. When she got outside she started begging people who were walking up and down the streets with suitcases to have their suitcases. The bar tender apologized saying, 'I'm sorry, I hope this doesn't make you hate our country.' He tried to give us a free meal but we paid him anyways. When she left he exclaimed that she goes there every day and says the same things.
It was disgusting..
Chilly Willy man, this fucking crazy old dude who lived in charlotte, everyone looked out for him. I only saw him once, I was walking to the gas station and he rode by in a car (getting a ride from someone) and yelled "chillllyyyyyyy wiillllllllllyyyy!!!!!" at me. It was the greatest day of my life.

Except I heard he died recently. This makes me sad.
Theres this guy in town, we call him Carl after slingblade. All he does is go around town on his giant tricycle thing with a cart on the back, he just hangs out at quiktrip with a huge bag of candy from mays that someone gets him, and a 44oz cup labeled "big kup" and talks to everyone, but he kind of has the mind of a little kid.
Anyone in the pittsburgh area should know about Bicycle Bob

Hes a homeless guy that went crazy when his hole family died. Hes filthy rich.
Hes called Bicycle Bob because he used to have a bike... now he got some wheels though.
[img]http://jouwfilmpjes.nl/m_videos/big_thumbs/1425.jpg[/img]
I don't really know him but I've seen him a couple of times talking to people, saying things like "hey did you know I'm from another galaxy?" and the like.
He's also seems to be pretty known on youtube
I'm the local nutter.
We got a few,
Les the Ped, not getting into detail on this one.
Jazz guy.
Bob the Barbarian.
Peter the Hobo.
And a few others, there probably all part of an elite group of super heroes, idk.

An old lady that tried to smash my mothers car with her broom. Do not make the mistake of parking in front of her house.
Here in Detroit, I knew one.
Flyhead Jon, basically was always under the freeway ramp at 8 mile and Van Dyke... Complaining about flies and asking for money in the summer for mosquito repellant. His "house" under the freeway was torn down after 4 or so years, then he died. He also had a house with his brother, but from what I gather, didn't like staying there.
He was found encased in ice in the bottom of an elavator shaft, dead from a cocaine overdose. Here's the picture.

This isn't a joke btw, this is actually him.
Here's the news story: [url]http://detnews.com/article/20090131/METRO08/901310382/Family--Frozen-man-was-our-Johnnie[/url]
Where's my automerge? What in the fuck?
"Well then if we're brainwashed, how do we not know about it?!" is all I say to the crazy people who talk about aliens and mind control.
There isn't too many weird people here. There was this one guy who's cool as shit, thats a bit out of the normal. He wears a USA jacket with a USA hat, an american flag on his bike, and blasts classic rock on his boombox that is wedge inside a hole in his bike. He just rides around town. I once saw him with a stuffed monkey on his handle bars, and a lawn mower on the back of his bike.
He became my hero the second i saw him.
Over here in by Seaside, New Jersey, we got Cheerio's Jacket Guy, who just walks up and down the main road all day, wearing (you guessed it) a Cheerio's jacket. We also have Bike Lady, (very unoriginal names, nobody knows anything about these people though), who has blonde hair down to her ass, and rides a bike up and down the same road all day. Apparently, she's really sweet.
Oh, and there was this homeless guy, who also roamed the same road as the other two. He had tons of facial hair and I heard he was a very successful lawyer who went insane, or something like that.
my local nutter is Jared Lee Loughner

Being encased in ice sounds scary.
At least he only died from the cocaine.

I see this car all over, I live in Redondo Beach. Is that where you see this guy and his car? I think I saw the guy step out once, and if I recall correctly he had some sort of peaked cap covered in foam or pipe cleaners or something like that.

Haha, hot damn that is the jesus van guy. I just found a photo of him.
[editline]22nd June 2011[/editline]
Sometimes he just walks out of his van and starts putting signs that say JESUS on them all over, then he gets back in his van. I'm almost certain he lives in his van.
[editline]22nd June 2011[/editline]
He seems like some sort of religious hipster, he shouts at people wearing brand name shirts and thinks that anything mainstream IS A SIGN OF THE CORRUPTION
If I recall correctly, his name is Robert. He sometimes parks his van by the little plaza with a Trader Joe's and a Jamba Juice. I'm gonna try to talk to him some time, it'll probably be hilarious/traumatizing.
Our town has very many nuts (Well it is Finland nontheless) but maybe the most known nutter passed away two years ago for having a heart-attack at a bus station. :sad:
Location:Lahti, Finland
Name: Rhythm-Rane
What he did: Doing his ''dance'' by waving his hands in every direction and shouting something about shotguns and asses.
And a video; [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UcG3Mjbrz34[/url] after his dance he was tired and rested [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OWYYiM7UpCU&feature=related[/url]
Today most of our nutters are just alcoholics drinking cheap wine at the marketplace, but there is one more guy, who's name is surprisingly also Rane, he is known for being a total nutwack, he is a tall bearded person, and everytime he walks past the taxi-street he shouts at the taxis ''Yeah yeah you are so big with your car and cell phones and all!'' and sometimes he just shouts ''What have I done to you!? What have I ever done to you?! Noo..'' even when there is none there. Once I was with my buddies at our local park and someone shouted: ''Hey come! rane fell into the dumpster!'' (these dumpsters seem to be only 1m deep but they go 3m more deeper under the ground, like this [url]http://www.vastavalo.fi/albums/userpics/12808/normal_Roskis.jpg[/url], sorry big image) and there he was mumbling and dwelling in the garbage and the fire department had to come rescue him. Ahh, I love this town.

One of the many crazies who live in the north... It's worse when he takes his shirt off.
So theres this one guy, who apparently lives somewhere under a bridge, who I met once when I was at one nearby store. I started talking to him and he told me how he lost his money and wife.
He owned a company which made newspapers or something, but then he went to bankrupt when computers came common. So he lost his wife too and now lives somewhere i have no idea where, men.
There's a homeless man who looks around 50-60 in my area. He goes around with a telescoping antenna from a radio and uses it to untangle American flags. He walks down every street in the neighborhood, systematically fixing all the flags on the street.
He saves money and buys flags and posts for houses that don't have one. If someone takes down the flag, he pauses outside their house, shakes his head, mutters what seems to be a prayer, then continues.
I think he's a Vietnam veteran. Every time I see him, I salute him and he returns the salute. He seems to appreciate this, as it's the only time I've seen him smile.
[editline]22nd June 2011[/editline]
He isn't really a nutter, but this doesn't fit anywhere else.
