THE SOUP GUY

Oct 28, 2011 13:17

This is so baffling I just have to write about it.

After work on Thursdays, I walk through the skyways to get to a bus that will take me to campus for MAS.

For the past three weeks, as I have walked into the building adjacent to mine, there has been this soup guy. And I don't even know what the hell is up with him. Here is what happens.

It is a normal skyway. There are business people walking around and heading out for the day.

I am walking too.

THEN THERE IS SOUP GUY.

He goes from walking quietly to making a direct beeline for me, making solid eye contact the whole time. He gestures to me with his to-go soup container (with saltines and a spoon on top). He loudly mumbles something unintelligible.

No one else in the skyway reacts. I am left there, stunned. Did this really happen? Did anyone else see what I just saw? WHAT?

Soup guy walks away. He is old and creepy.

Once, okay, whatever, there are crazy people. Twice? Weird. Three times? What the shit?

SOUP GUY. WHY.

So many questions.
