Let me break down this story really quick.
Me and my closest buddies are huge fans of Tropic Thunder and Pineapple express. When we can't think of anything else to watch, chances are we watch one of those two again. They are our feelgood movies.
So one day we decide to make a metric fuckton of Macaroni and Cheese because why the fuck not. (our goal was an entire trashcan full, but we only could get about 40 something boxes, but that's another story). So we're at another store pretty much clearing the shelves of their character shaped macaroni (they still had some spongebob shaped ones, awwww yeah).
So we're checking out, and who do we see but Danny McBride. I lean over to my buddy and point him out. We see him and he sees us. No words were exchanged. The look on his face said nothing but "Look, I'm just buying some goddammed milk. If you so much as nod to me in understanding after you receive the message from this body language, I'm going to smash your fucking faces in. Now be cool."
We understood and went our ways.
My family was close friends with Jacoby Shaddix during his time working as a janitor at a hospital, have a picture on my parent's bedroom wall of him and I, he was pretty chubby back then.
My grandmother dated John Malkovich
My Cartooning professor directed a season of American Dad and is a character designer on it now, and my Animation Basics professor worked on El Tigre and some cutscenes in a Transformers game.

Antti Tuisku. Probably none of you have even heard of him, but he's a pop singer and was like, THE shit for every teenage girl's wet dream a few years back. He's pretty swell the few times I've met him, but I'm not all THAT close to him. Still, I told him whenever he comes to my corner of Helsinki I'll offer him a cup of coffee.
Met Ray Park who plays Darth Maul from Star Wars, Michael Rooker and Scott Wilson from Walking Dead, and Grant Wilson from a ghost hunting show. I've also written back and forth with one of the Imperial officers from Star Wars.

My dad's friend Corey Webber was an actor, one of the roles he did that you might recognize is Volk from MW3, who suspiciously enough almost looks exactly like him.

Also, I met the Smashing Pumpkins ages ago when they had this big Halloween party in Michigan in the 90s, although I was too young to realize who they were or remember all that much.
Dan Aykroyd sometimes pops up in our town. I believe he still lives in Kingston which is like, 40 minutes from our town.
Other then that I've met a lot of other famous people at meet and greet things at conventions but I don't think those count.
Lee Evans lives in the same town as me, I saw him in Waitrose once.
