Have you ever encountered such weird people in public that you can’t get over it?

Where I'm from, they put such people away. I never even saw a visible special needs person or a wheelchair growing up.
I'm surprised that Op is surprised as such people are everywhere here. I find OP to be strange for bringing it up.

We were in San Juan in April and standing outside eating cookies we had just gotten from Drunken Cookies and my 11yo dropped a crumb of her cookie on the ground. Probably the size of your pinkie nail.
A complete stranger swooped in, picked it up and popped it in her own mouth.
We stood there flabbergasted and she is acting like it’s fine, five second rule isn’t a thing, she’s a science teacher and knows about germs etc.
One of the oddest things I’ve seen from someone who presents as normal lol.

I used to work at a 5 star hotel. I saw all sorts of stuff. One time a lady called and said her husband was at a work conference and could I help find him. I wrote down her number and said I would call her back.

He was not staying with us. That was a terrible phone call to make.

A woman yelled at me at a pumpkin patch for stealing her wagon of pumpkins. It was bizarre. She was there with another woman and kids and the non-yelling woman kept giving me the "I'm sorry" face.

Portland, OR strange is normal and normal is strange. I think there are a ton of people who've fried their brains with drugs.
