A thread spin off of your strangest neighbor.
I have this friend we'll call Mike that I went to school with since 5th grade. He didnt get his drivers license till be was 20. He was the only one legal to drink in high school (he hit the grandfather clause the year legal age was raised from 18 to 19, and hit it again at 19 to 21). This benefit was completely lost on him. He still avidly reads and collects comic book, and looks strangely like the comic store guy from the Simpsons, but without the pony tail. He has the world's most noticeable case of psoriasis.
He went off to college. Found a gal that was more miserable than him, and now they live together. She doesnt drive and has her personality is made up entirely of phobias. Despite 7 years of college he never got a degree, and now works as a clerk at Hollywood Video. *sigh* At least he's happy.
