What have you seen that is just...bizarre? I need a distraction from thinking about all the burglars and other criminals hiding in my shower, closet, pantry, garage, back seat, etc.

I used to live in a somewhat trendy awesome suburb when I was in my early 20s, great food, bars, shopping and lots and lots of backpackers and also sex workers. So not unusual to see people in all sorts of dress at all hours of the day, seven days a week.
That being said, I did a double take when I saw a man walking past my apartment building, wearing only a very short silky robe and a very tall fur hat, walking a cat on a leash.

I saw 2 women loading shopping into a Subaru impreza, like the proper rally one, then speed off doing at least 30 above the speed limit, they were at least 80, it was odd and funny as fuck!

I once saw a guy walk around manhattan with a cat on his head. I was walking with my bff at the time. The man turned to my bff and said to him, "you should keep her, she is a cool cat." Then he proceeded to walk away. Turns out he is pretty famous in NYC for walking around with the cat on his head. This is the guy. If you google it, dozens of pics come up.

I saw a lady hand a squirrel a Hershey bar on the sidewalk. The squirrel took it and chowed down on it.

At the mall, I saw a lady sitting on a bench eating corn on the cob from a large grocery bag.

I saw a streaker on my way to work this spring. The dude was completely naked, walked out from a courtyard area, hung from a branch of a tree next to the road, then stood there for a minute before waking away. It was completely jarring to see (I did call the cops to report it).
The other that comes to mind are the weird people who live two houses down from us. They're an older couple and then their 40ish year old son also lives there. They always have weird stuff in the driveway like empty flower containers or branches they've cut from their trees etc. One early morning I drove by and saw the old dude unloading 6 huge gas cans from the back of his SUV. I don't even know where you'd find gas containers this large, they're clearly not just for gassing up a lawnmower or anything. I'm convinced they're dooms day preppers now.

I saw a squirrel run into traffic, hit the hub cap of a car, spin around a few times, then it got launched out and ran away like nothing ever happened.

In line for the restroom at Orlando airport, a nice lady at the sink was chatting up a mom with twin girls. She turned to continue washing and we all realize she is naked from the waist down - could see cheeks.

This is a repeat from yesterday, but...
When we were living in England, I was driving home on the motorway one night at like 2 AM after babysitting. It was completely creepy dark and I drove a little tiny Audi.
There was a person walking down the side of the motorway in a black duster. He turned toward my car, knelt like he was praying, and then fell face first into my lane. I swerved around him and drove home the rest of the way freaking out crying. H wasn't home so I ran to our neighbors because their light was still on and told them what happened (they were our good friends).
The neighbor told me it was probably some guy that spends all his time walking the motorway from Norwich to Thetford.
I was terrified to drive at night for a long time.

I saw a guy wearing gorilla feet riding a skateboard once. That was odd. But not too odd because I lived in an area where I regularly saw people unicycling to work.

In NOLA, we were walking and heard Lady Gaga blaring from behind us. We turn to see a very slender young man strutting in a red thong dragging a stereo behind him. He was wearing devil horns and carrying a devil trident with Donald Trump's head on it. He proceeds to walk to the center of an intersection and dance his heart out to Gaga. Then walks on. Several hours later blocks and blocks away, we see him again. He was just dancing his heart out and it was amazing.

I was at the Boston Common and a guy walked by with a plastic horse head on. Just alone taking a stroll. No one batted an eye.

We saw someone dressed as a Minion walking down the street last weekend. It was noon-ish. We live in the suburbs. It was very random.

There is a man in my city who rides his bicycle around wearing only a string thong. That's always interesting to see.

Grossest thing I've ever seen was a homeless woman giving a homeless guy a BJ on the stairs down to the subway during a blizzard. It will forever be etched in my brain.

I used to work at a pool. A lady came in wearing a white shirt and white shorts. I assumed there was a bathing suit underneath. Nope. Nothing. She sat in the hot tub and the place cleared out.

A couple of weeks ago MH and I were driving down the road when a scared wet ferret ran out in front of the car, we swerved and missed it. I was so worried about this wet lost ferret that we stopped at four houses to ask if anyone had lost a ferret. Each person looked at me like I was nuts, nobody owned a ferret.
Turns out the damn thing was a Mink. I didn't even know Minks were things and I sure didn't know they looked like ferrets.

I saw a man who was full on Santa from the waist up, down to his hair and beard (and I mean dressed as Santa too). Waist down, boxers and socks to his mid-calves. Riding a bicycle down one of the main streets where I used to live. I almost died laughing.

When I lived in the city there was a man who would ride a unicycle around the neighborhood while wearing a "sexy" bumblebee costume.

The Entire Bronie convention.. a group of us were there for 1D at the same time as Broniecon.. it made us as 30 something year old fangirls feel quite normal in comparison.

I also saw a guy ride by my work window on a unicycle in the middle of a blizzard. I never say him before or since. Just once in a blizzard.

There is a little kid in town who has a really convincing Mario costume. He stands on the side walk and waves at cars.

I once saw a man chasing a baby cow around his front yard. I live in the suburbs.
I really wanted an explanation but alas, I was just driving by and I never did figure it out.
