    Probably not the weirdest but it’s one I never understood: there was this guy who parked on the side of a path in the field, had his window open (during winter), sat in the car and watched Instagram reels of women (maybe only one specific I don’t know) and he connected his phone to the car speakers so he could turn the volume up to 11 for everyone passing by to hear. Ok, whatever, I thought. But he kept turning up almost every day and did the same thing. Sometimes he stood outside his car and leaned on the roof with his phone. At some point he even got a large tripod for his phone so he didn’t need to hold it anymore and just stood there, watching it for hours. I used to walk past him many times with my dog so I had a good feeling of how often and how long he was there.

    I still wonder what his obsession was with these Insta reels and why he needed to blast it into everyone’s ears in the cold instead of watching this stuff at home. The guy clearly had mental issues which is sad of course. I’m not the type to just ask a stranger what he’s doing so I never found out.
