I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didnt want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything. He said, Oh, like youre doing now? I was taken aback, and all I could say was Huh? but he kept cutting me off and going huh? huh? huh? and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying. The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like Sir, you need to pay for those first. At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter. When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually to prevent any electrical infetterence, and then turned around and winked at me. I dont even think thats a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly."

Yeah I managed to catch him at a Walgreens one time a few years ago. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didnt want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything. He said, Oh, like youre doing now? I was taken aback, and all I could say was Huh? but he kept cutting me off and going huh? huh? huh? and closing his hand shut in front of my face.

Woah dude this is weird.. I met him too in the rinky dink in Jackson Ms. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didnt want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything. He said, Oh, like youre doing now? I was taken aback, and all I could say was Huh? but he kept cutting me off and going huh? huh? huh? and closing his hand shut in front of my face.

This is so peculiar. I ran into him in the middle of an abandoned Dollar General. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didnt want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything. He said, Oh, like youre doing now? I was taken aback, and all I could say was Huh? but he kept cutting me off and going huh? huh? huh? and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off.

This is so cazy. I ran into him in the middle of the night last night at a gay bar. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didnt want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything. He said, Oh, like youre doing now? I was taken aback, and all I could say was Huh? but he kept cutting me off and going huh? huh? huh? and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my electric shuffle at the dance floor, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to the bar to get drunk off a spiked Mike's Hard Lemonade, I saw him trying to walk out the bar without paying for his 15 empty beer glasses of bottomless mimosas in his hands. The security bear at the door that looked like Zangeif with a borat one piece 9j was very nice about it and professional, and was like Sir, you need to pay for those first. Larry Elder might reduce my bf (the bar Keep's) wage to 0.0 an HR and he is barely making enough living off tips as is. At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear him, but eventually turned back around and came back to counter. When she took out his wallet and started throwing the half dollar coins n the ground, he stopped the bar keep and told him to count them mentally collectivelly" because basic arithmetic matters, and then turned around and winked at me with his mid riff, pink booty shirts and uggs. I dont even think thats a word. Hell it's out if this world! After he collectively counted the half dollar coins and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting him with "hip thrusts."

Wait that's crazy, I literally just saw him earlier today. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didnt want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything. He said, Oh, like youre doing now? I was taken aback, and all I could say was Huh? but he kept cutting me off and going huh? huh? huh? and closing his hand shut in front of my face.

I ran into Pittsburgh Steelers' quarterback Ben Roethlisberger at a local grocery store.

My sister and I stopped at this crazy grocery store called "Jungle Jim's". We were walking around looking for some Ritz crackers and that's when we saw him. I saw him from the side and I wasn't sure it was Ben, but he was huge. But I kept peeking and he eventually turned my way and I could see a Steelers logo on his cap. He started walking towards us down the aisle along with a woman who I'm guessing was his wife. As he got closer he made eye contact and I just smiled and said "Hey Ben, how are you doing?". He smiled back and said something like "Doing good, just doing some shopping." I nodded my head and all I could think of to say was "Well, hey...good luck next season." He said "Thanks, man." and kept walking. It was a short interaction but he came off as genuinely nice and pleasant.

So my sister and I moved on to the next aisle after grabbing our crackers, and there was Ben coming down the aisle on the other side. Again he came closer, but this time I just smiled and kept walking. I felt like I was passing up some kind of opportunity. I already talked to him but it's not every day that you see an NFL quarterback casually browsing the store. We walked to the next aisle and I was waiting for Ben and his wife to turn the corner but they didn't. We walked all of the way to the end of the aisle then we saw him there against the back wall. He was looking at the frozen meat and just picked up a frozen chicken.

Right after he picked up I said "Hey, Ben!" He turned and looked at me while still holding the chicken in his giant hands. I held up my arms with open hands and said "...hit me!" He laughed and shook his head and continued to read the label. I walked a little bit closer with my arms still held up in front of my face. I got about 10 feet away from him and said "Come on Ben, I'm open!" He turned to look at me again, then he looked all around as if it was some kind of joke. But I was determined so I kept staring at him. He looked into my eyes and I gave him an encouraging nod and smile. So he flipped his shoulders to me and tossed the chicken to me underhand. Sure, I dropped it but he was still the p**** for tossing it underhand.

By the time I picked it up I looked at Ben and he already grabbed another chicken, put it in his cart, and started to walk the other way. I shouted "IS THAT ALL YOU GOT BEN?" and I threw the chicken expecting him to turn around and catch it. Instead it hit him in the back of the head. I thought it would hurt because the chicken was frozen solid, but he didn't even flinch. He stopped walking and turned around slowly. He didn't even look mad, his face was completely straight. What he did next changed my life forever. He picked up his entire shopping cart and threw it. I managed to dodge it but it hit and killed my sister. I screamed and cried and the whole thing was just a red blur until the ambulance got there. I didn't even notice that Ben took off but he must have ran away right after that.

The cops arrived too and I asked them to check the security tape and they agreed. But when they went upstairs to check the tapes, the recorder was smashed into a million pieces. They said they had no evidence that Ben Roethlisberger killed my sister. I know in my heart that is exactly what happened and even though I'll never see Ben behind bars, I smile every time the Steelers miss the playoffs.

Neil Degrasse Tyson just did the most clam thing in front of my pals. He came downstairs when were all playing VideooGames and he said to me and referring to my friends when he said it, "Hey who invited the clam brigade over, didn't know your mum was making seafood for dinner." My friends were in shock and I was in disgust. Im so emberstomed right now I think im going to be sick, what should I do?

my friends are in the other room not talking and my Neil Degrasse Tyson is just laughing watching tv in his bedroom, if my mum mum finds out about this I don't think pat and matt will be able to sleep over for the night and its ****ing stupid cause the weekend is my time. My time to relax and have a good time, I don't need this bull****
