Title: People watching
Post by: BigCat on May 27, 2009, 08:54:13 PM
I'm a big fan. Love to sit in malls, plazas, etc. and check out the freaks. Fav ppl watching experience is First Friday in the arts district on Santa Fe in big D... Talk about weirdos... But its awesome because for every art gallery you go into (there are hundreds on this street) you get to meet wackos and drink free wine/beer. :notworthy: :cheers:

What are everyone else's favorite ppl watching spots? :dunno:

Great people watching here in DC, btw. Georgetown is unreal for its varieties of co-ed hotties, super-good smelling rich lawyers/senators and Mass street trash. Lots of colors, sizes, etc.

Also, the air show at Andrews Air Base may be the people watching equivalent of an annual solar eclipse. Un&@#%ing real. I go to all four days, but only watch the planes once.

On the flipside, peoplewatching in Annapolis is incred boring. Everyone is military, so they're all trim in their dress whites or walking around with excessively good posture in comically-well-pressed cargo shorts looking like gangs of undercover cops trying to blend in. It's the people-watching equivalent of 1950's television.

Good airport people watching opps:

-Old people going through security.  They never know what to do or how to proceed.  It's great watching the people behind them get mad and change lines.  Taking off shoes alone takes forever and then they stop at the other side to put their shoes on while young elites march around them and give them the angry glance and loud sigh while they pass by.

-People running from their late arrivals to make connections.  If you watch the board you can see which flights are late and prepare for the fireworks.  Another good chance to see angry people when they bust out of the skyway.  Fat women always hug their kids close like they are in mortal danager as the hurried business travelers hustle by. 

-Big 12 basketball coaches.  Doc in Altanta, Self in Detroit, etc.

Not really people watching but fun activities:

-Elitely strutting by the Southwest lines as you flash your Delta, Continental, Midwest, etc. ticket on the way to the good gates.

-Watch headline news start back over running the same stories you saw an hour ago.

Don't forget the good times and seeing them clean out their pocket and pull out hilariously random things.

"Let's see what you got here. You got, uh... oh, you got licorice. Oh, that's, uh, that's, uh... oh, oh, Freedent! Oh, that's good. Yeah, yeah, I got-- I got a sweet tooth, I think I'll have some Freedent. Yeah, uh, oh, oh, what's this? Oh, a cough drop, a Luden's cough drop. Is that candy? No, I don't think that's candy; I think it's a cough drop! Uh, what else we got? Oh, oh, look! Look at this! There's a fishing lure in here! There's a fishing lure in the candy jar!Oh, oh...look at this...a spare key for a Volkswagen Scirocco...they don't even make those any more! They don't even make that car anymore!! Whose keys are these?"

They also always have pocket knives and get super pissed when told they can't bring them because they don't have time to go back to the car.  They ask to speak to a supervisor a lot.

Wichita to Orlando flight
Some dude has a stogie in his mouth the entire time, never lights up obviously but still seems weird.

Personally I like watching the seasoned traveler at airports, you know, the business man who has taken some 500+ flights in his time.  You know he is flying first class.

When I'm not flying for work I kinda feel like putting on a suit for the flight anyway just to make myself feel more elite.  It's like, how are these people going to know that I know what I'm doing if I'm in shorts and a t-shirt :dunno:

I used to love watching people in movie theaters during a movie.  Hilarious watching action movies and see how/when people move to the edge of their seat with anticipation, or when a date gets pissed at something and slouches back into their seat & folds arms and completely loses interest in the movie.   Also enjoy the first-date people awkwardly going for that last piece of popcorn.   Was totally my obsession during highschool.

If you go down to P&L in KC and stand up on the cross walk you can look down on a variety of people.  They are also grilling dogs and what-not directly below you so the olfactory stimulus is bueno. 

You can see cowboy types heading in and out of the cowboy bar.  Piss drunk people from all walks of life coming in and out of McFaddens, the "IN" set standing in line for Mosaic adjusting their push-up bras and trying to score a line of YeYo before heading in to get their grind on.  To top it off you can watch whatever is on the big screen right in front of you.  All the while sipping the drink of your choice.. albeit at 8 bucks a pop.

I won't go anymore. I CAN'T handle it. I go to Target and Whole Foods, where their prices discriminate so I don't have to.
