I absolutely believe this. This place can be a fever dream.

Once in Harvard Square I saw a fat man wearing a dress shirt and suspenders arguing firmly with the police that it was not actually illegal to go into the women's bathroom. The police were firmly informing him that yes, it actually is.

I didn't stick around to see the outcome but I can take a pretty good guess.

I was at a 7/11 a few months back and this tweeker was on the phone talking quite loudly about his dick. We made eye contact and he came up to me and made a jerking off motion with his hand and started laughing. I was already having a day so I lost my temper. I could of handled it better but I think I was entitled to enforce my boundaries. Not to mention there was a mother and a kid in line behind us.

He proceeds to get defensive and argue that “iM jUsT jOkiNG i sHoUlD fUcK yOU uP”. Nothing ended up happening because I wanted to keep my dignity/be a civil adult.

I once had an old lady come up to me and, completely unprompted, give me a lecture on the difference between the German words "kein" and "keine" as if I had mistakenly used the latter instead of the former. She was in a heated argument with someone else at the bus stop but she saw me approaching and ambushed me with that lecture as soon as I got there.
She did not stop arguing with strangers the entire time I was within earshot of her, which was quite a while.
