For thirteen years I worked in this fabulous, funky old beat-up beautiful coffeehouse. I worked the night shift so I had a lot of customers who were freaks. Perhaps the strangest were a set of triplets, young women about 20 (when I met them). Perfectly identical. All 3 tall and very large and round. All 3 had long golden-blonde hair and large blue eyes. In the many years I worked there I never did learn to tell them apart. (They were tolerant.)
The 3 sisters claimed to practice witchcraft. For whatever reason, all of them were very kind to me and I felt fortunate, because they were never known to be friendly in the least. One was just slightly more outgoing than her two sisters were. The outgoing one was especially into reading tarot and was often in the cafe sitting at a table with another customer, reading the person's tarot cards. Once she read mine and darned if the reading didn't turn out to be spot on.
I'll never forget "the triplets".

What wierds me out? Not too much does. I'll try to come up with a few things...
1.
Santa Claus. Really weirds me out. When I worked in Macy's over the winter holidays in my senior year of high school, I used to hide in the stock room when Santa came around after hours to hand out candy canes.
Eh, I don't like candy canes, anyway.
2.
Tweekers. I'm tolerant and understanding about substance use. After all, substance users are self-medicating. If I have to choose a street drug that gives me the icks, however, it's speed. For some reason "speed freaks" have always given me a creepy feeling.
That's all I can come up with for now. But I'll be thinking on this one...
