i like to give small children crazy wide eyed looks when their parents aren't looking. Sometimes I catch myself before I start when I realize the child is old enough to tell on me
even if he DID detect penis - cubEdin

Haha, golden thread. I don't post often on TL but I do love reading some of the threads, and this might be my favorite.

My only example of unintentional creeping occurs fairly regularly, but it's not my fault!

Let me explain.

To set the stage of the best example of this accidental creepishness: I was in undergrad, attending an environmental soil chemistry lecture. My professor, poor guy, had a very bad stutter. He was a very kind, intelligent man, and an enthusiastic teacher, but man, if ANYTHING unexpected came up, his speech would be derailed for tens of seconds. I mean, even someone raising their hand to ask a question or something would m-m-m-make him stu-stu-stutter for several sentences.

On to my creepishness. I have this weird habit that I think I've developed from paying rapt attention to video games and/or movies...and that is if something happens that will make me want to blink while I'm trying to visually pay attention, I will only blink one eye at a time--or just one eye at all.

So, this professor was giving a pre-exam review session and I was trying to pay attention. He happened to look at me at the exact instant something flew into my right eye, and I blinked...just the one eye... I winked at him. A male undergraduate, winking at his professor shortly before a test. The prof flew into an irreparable stutter for longer than I've ever heard anyone stutter for. It was terrible. The class had no idea what happened--usually there was a visible reason for his stutters, and this episode was worse than any other but with seemingly no cause. Only I knew my accidental crime, and after the professor finally was able to speak coherently again and the review session was over, I just quickly walked out of the room. I was too embarrassed to speak with him one-on-one ever again, even to just explain that I wasn't actually trying to seduce him or fuck with his lecture or anything.

I aced the exam.

Like, 20 seconds from ignition to completion.

Generally, my mission is successful, and the target is creeped out, but sometimes I giggle and it backfires. The number 1 rule is to maintain discipline when engaging in stealth-smiling.

I use a different version of this. I make eye contact with a person and smile at them and keep staring until i get a response. If they look away, they're probably creeped out. If they smile, based on the rules I just made a new friend.


I also have my own version. I was having sex with my girlfriend at the time, and we were doing it missionary (relevant!). So she closes her eyes and kinda leans her head in a direction away from my face, and I take this time to make the biggest rape face grin imaginable. It was hard to hold, but as soon as she looked at me again she was like "OMFG STOP!". I laughed so uncontrollably we had to stop for a minute to regain my composure.

People say im creepy on daily basis...

Anyway i have creep so many ppl in so many way(most of the ones you have told i have done), but actually the most creepy stuff i have live was creepy for me XD, so im driving to my home at 2:00am and i see a pal i hadn't talk to in so long and hes walking on the sidewalk, so i actually slow down and say: Hey Paul where you're going? This dude that looks so much like my friend tells me: hey there just walking a littel i can come with you if you like(with kinda a dirty look on his face...) So i freak out and just drive away with out saying nothing...

I have this habit of falling asleep with my eyes open. Like, wide open. I can be at a party, holding a drink, totally asleep while people talk to me and I just kind of mumble back. It's also really awkward when it happens in bed with a girl; can you imagine waking up and seeing the guy you're in bed with just staring at you? But yeah, it's never caused any breakups or anything, just a little creepy.

Wait, what? Yeah I guess I would be pretty surprised

the perspective changes to a girl's. he did not switch sleep partners in the middle of the night (According to this story).

I make a lot of jokes that people don't understand so they just generally play the safe side and act offended when what i actually said was totally neutral
If you're mad that someone else is brazenly trumpeting their beliefs with ignorance, perhaps you should be mad that you are doing it too.

I'm a pretty fast walker and it has happened a few times when I'm out walking when it's dark outside that I'm catching up to a woman walking alone. As you are getting closer she starts walking faster so you can't really walk by her easily (sometimes picking up her phone), leaving you with the decision to creep her out more by starting to walk even faster (almost jogging) to pass her by or just keep walking behind her as if I'm following her. -_-

I was at work one evening and I work in the service industry, so people come and go all the time. Well one night this guy came in that I was so sure it was my friends dad that I told my co-workers that I was sure I knew them and that they shouldn't be so rude to offend him (The guy I was thinking of, well his wife has really bad MS and I was friends with his son, great people so I was a little peeved they'd be making jokes at his expense(He's one of those guy's who always looks frazzled)) So I go up to the guy to shake his hand and ask him how are you doing Mr. SoandSo. Low and behold it wasn't the guy I was thinking of but rather a gentlemen that was slightly mentally challenged who was completely bewildered by the situation. He still shook my hand, but replied I'm not who you're thinking of, I have no idea who that is. This was 2 years ago, I still hear about that incident to this day and that guy never came back again.

I think this was when I was 14-15 or so. One day I went shopping and my parents dropped me off, and they told me they'd be back in an hour. Well an hour passes and I come out of the mall, and I immediately see my parents car. So I get in, and started talking to them about what I bought and stuff. Then I glance over, and I see this FREAKED OUT OLD LADY, just staring a me. That was when I realized that this wasn't my parents car, but a random lady's. So I kinda just froze and after a while I said "well, sorry about that. I'll be leaving now" an slowly got out of the car. That was pretty embarassing haha.

I was having a conversation with two of my friend's friends at a supermarket, talking about the irrationality of some of the worries human beings have. As an example, I brought up how parents were silly to worry about things like kidnappers and child molesters, when statistically they should be worrying about their children suffering a drowning or electrical accident.

Anyway, as I was explaining, I took a small child's shoe out of my pocket and started tossing it to myself. The conversation broke down into a lot of nervous laughter as everyone wondered whether it was a funny situation, or a very very scary one.

(I have a habit of picking up dropped gloves/hats/scarves, and I had found the shoe on the ground and pocketed it earlier in the day)

I often stare into space then realize im staring at someone. Then they stare back at me. Then i stare back when theyre not looking for some reason. Then they do the same thing. Then we avoid each other for days. Does this happen to anyone else or is it just me 0_o.

I'm a medical student and I usually take the tram back home after dissections, reeking of formaldehyde. Also, when I'm called during that time, I have a habbit of describing what I just did in the most detailed ways. So I'm a massive 6'2 guy wearing small round glasses (I tend to call them "nazi scientist glasses") who reeks like hell and vividly explains how to cut eyes out or how it is really easy to cut someone in half if you saw through the discī instead of the actual vertebrae. I guess it adds up.

Not gonna lie, this is a very ... strange habit. Awesome situation though, if I was in a similar one I'd totally milk it with my best joke-kidnap anecdote and serious nervous laughing

I was sitting next to a girl in one of my classes, and idly scratched my leg while writing notes and made a 'hmmm' sound as I was thinking about something the lecturer had said. Noticed out of the corner of my eye that the girl was blushing hard and staring at me, so I stared back with a small grin and raised my eyebrows at her which made her look away all embarrassed like.

Turns out that my pants had folded in such a way so it looked like there was a giant penis bulge down the inside of my thigh and I was touching myself.

I once freaked out a girl who studied at may university. Met her at a party. I have a pretty good memory (and when I say pretty good i mean it), so I recalled having seen her before on a train, and more specifically, where she sat, what day and time it was, the color of her jacket and how the person next to her looked. Naturally, the conversation stopped there as the girl assumed I was stalking her. O_o

Lesson learned, I guess.

One time I was in the department store, shopping with my sister. Then when we were at the clothes, we broke apart and did our own things. After I found the clothes I wanted, I was looking for my sis so we can move on together. I saw my sister looking at some clothes and doing that pressing clothe against body thing to see if it might fit thing, so I approached her from behind and said in a low voice "So do you think its big enough to fit?"

.....or so I thought it was my sister. She gave me the most freaked out look and zoomed away xD

Alright let me lead into this story with a tiny amount of background information. I work in a restaurant and have been working their for 3+ years. In restaurants you hear things that are generally disgusting but as I've been working here for a few years nothing fazes me ever. (Except for the one time someone licked my ear, that was odd)

So it was an exceptionally slow day and I didn't really have anything to do I was talking to two of the more attractive women that work with me. They kinda started talking more amongst themselves and I started to space out. There was one thing that just so happened to catch my ear to which I intelligently responded "Please don't shit on the floor, that wouldn't be really cool and I'd probably have to clean it up." She just so happened to be talking about being tired and feeling like she could just SIT on the floor. I didn't really talk to them for the rest of that shift >.<
So basically the difference between me and deezer is that I don't need to look at his stream to know what hes doing- Liquid'Ret
