Weirdest thing just happened to me...
I was driving down Hempstead Tpke with my little guy in his carseat, to go to the school where my older son takes Religious Ed.
I was stopped at a light and a white van rolled up to my passenger side.
The driver motioned for me to roll down my window. I put it down a bit, thinking he needed directions.
This was the conversation we had:
Man (also with another guy in passenger seat. Could have been more people but the van didn't have side windows): "Hi ma'am. This is going to sound weird. Can I ask you a question?"
Me: "Um...what?"
Man: "Would you like Surround Sound for your home?
Me: "No thanks"
Man: "See...I knew you'd think this is weird. I have 'extras' that I'd like to unload."
Me: No thanks"
Man: "Follow me...I'll show you. Are you headed home? We can follow you and check out your house to see if these speakers would work for you."
Me:
And I FLEW when the light turned green!
*****????
First thing that went through my mind was that missing teacher (sorry, this isn't yet another thread about it). But really...in this day and age...does he think a woman would say..."yeah sure...follow me home." ?
I tell ya...it freaked me out a bit.

These people are around. They drive around parking lots trying to sell speakers to people. I would never buy it.

I would have freaked and probably went through the red light. I never roll my window down no matter how much people honk and yell at me. They can go to the gas station and get directions.
