CornTYP Posted November 21, 2005 Report Share Posted November 21, 2005 the crazy dancing guy that comes out late at night and does a funny walk that looks like he's dancing up and down Union Street. he has a sort of afro going on. know who i mean?Thats the "Crazy Running Man". He goes about during the day carrying weird stuff. I saw him with a handheld LCD game and then another day he was carrying a street lamp. He should be at the top of the "Most Famous List 2006" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

threeornothing Posted November 21, 2005 Report Share Posted November 21, 2005 for your information marrillionboy there is a condition called feotal alcahol syndrome which affects the baby in a variety of ways.it affects how people look their whole life----- look it up. people who judge like this make me sick- we can all admit that certain facial features are less pleasing than others but there is certainly no need to be callous.Am sure she has done her best despite the start she has had in life. people like you make it all the more difficult for society to move beyond this narrow minded shallowness.I'm sure all the smack doesn't help...

Scootray Posted November 21, 2005 Report Share Posted November 21, 2005 I'm starting off with.... The Lay Preacher with his mobile disco outside Marks and Spencers.I don't like him. No-one actually likes the music he plays, so why does he bother?He just stands there, looking...gazing...He looks bored.He should go home.

He used to hang about the Bon Accord centre and tell everyone he was from Mars. He claimed he ate 200 acid tabs for breakfast. One day my mate asked him where his spaceship was and said it was on the top deck of the car park. When my mate then asked him to take us for a spin he told him he had ran out of petrol.
