And I don't mean 'Yay I got married' I mean it was unexpected, unexplained, or just plain wtf moments you have seen, heard, experienced, etc.

mine would be seeing a homeless man punch a pigeon out of the air.

I got a good one.
I recently got my licence(YAY!) and I already had a 90's era jeep, something that looked like it was used in Jurassic park.
So the day I come back from the DMV I find in the drive way , my beutiful hunk of crap has been lifted, jacked up, elevated. My dad had it modified, as in jacking it up 3 half whole feet with a suspension upgrade plus bitching off road tires. I am now qualified to go rock climbing in my vehicle, or at least intimidate those tiny mini coppers.

When I was 14, I used to mountain bike around this lake near my house with a bunch of friends. We'd go at least 2-3 times a week during the summer. On one of these trips we came into a clearing and almost ran over TWO WOMEN, almost totally naked, TOTALLY going at it. They saw us and freaked, we ran, and we've been talking about it ever since.....

"Hey, remember when we were biking around Folsom and we..."
"Yeah, I remember, Greg."

Haha... That sounds awesome. I'll pay that, that is a pretty sweet moment.

Eating a $50 steak that weighted over a Kilo under 20 mins, And then the chef telling me because of what I did, I got it free, my name on the wall and a free T-shirt. Pretty sweet for a guy that weighs only 65k

That doesn't happen often enough.

I was on my way home from a party when from NOWHERE a guy punches me in the face. I turn around and the assailant looks SCARED SHITLESS and throws money at me 'cause he thought I was someone else. The next day I bought Bioshock. Certainly not the best moment but a good one nonetheless.

Nice try, that was from a stand-up routine.

My dad getting so drunk (on wine, no less!) on a trip to Budapest, that he took a piss on the side of a building on the main street.

I've had so many awesome moments, but I guess I've got to pick one that's less personal.

I was volunteering for a municipal politician, making phone calls. And I talked this curmudgeonly old guy from not wanting to vote because he'd lost faith in politics to voting for my guy just because of my passion for it. That was awesome.

I've had my share of awesome and awful times, like most. Of the great times, there's one that will probably stick with me to the grave:

Seeing my favorite band (that was disbanded when I started listening to them) perform a completely rockin' set and then losing my virginity in the same night to a great girl.

Kinda ups the ante on best moments. Gets me all nostalgic.

As far as random bonus moments, once a stanger deposited $650 into my bank account by accident. Let the bank know and let it sit for a few months, but nobody claimed it, so... Cool!

You ever read "Great Expectations"? That was YOU! Did you become a respected gentleman? :-)

If he'd really read Great Expectations, he would have known that Joe Gargery is the real gentleman...

Back on topic, there's nothing more than getting the school's 'star batsman' out, before he protests (for no good reason, obviously) and then on the very next ball...he gets out the exact same way, caught and bowled. Priceless.

Ages ago when I was in school some kid at the other side of the room passed me down one of those childish pictures that have the words "You big poo poo head" written on them. While he was laughing I scrunched up the peice of paper and threw it at him, and it landed in his mouth (he almost choked on it)

Some unbelievably obnoxious idiot at my school kept taking my book and running away guffawing with it. Now I am a relatively peaceful person, but this was really starting to annoy me.

The third time he did this (in one day), this awesome (albeit very stressed looking) guy sitting next to me got up and completely floored the guy. Just smashed him. I picked up my book and the guy went back to studying.

I think it was annoying the other guy more than it was annoying me. It was finals week for the first semester and we were both trying to study. I had only ever said two or three words to this guy.

My first Taekwon do comp I was a yellowbelt vs this blue belt a few years older in the final.

I didnt look at the scored board one during the match and just assumed I didnt win. At the end of the last round we both bowed and athe ref raised my hand! Geez it felt good! First comp - gold medal =D

I planned to join my school's Ultimate Frisbee team. However, there was one major obstacle interfering with that plan. The school and my house are about 18 kilometres apart and

1) I don't have a car to drive home in after practice
2) I can't get a ride home.

Eventually, I made one of the decisions that would, to this day, define who I am. I was going to join the team, and screw motorized transportation, I'll walk home. About an hour and a half after I started walking home, a car pulled over next to me, and the driver was a guy from one of my classes who happened to be driving home from Rugby practice. He gave me a ride home, telling me how much of a hardass I was along the way. I spent the rest of the day having a huge ego trip.

When someone asked me if I was okay when I was crying in the hall. It was the first time I ever had faith in humanity.

I was little when they first opened Hurricane Harbor at Six Flags. My first time in the wave pool, I fell off my raft in the deep part towards the front. I couldn't breathe, and I kept getting hit in the head and shoved back underwater by rafts. Then a lady reached down and pulled me out. The best part is that I didn't drown.

If he really read Great Expectations, he'd know that Ms. Havisham shoulda throw'd dat cake out. Also that bitch got lit on fire, and it was the best part of the book.

Back on topic, as for me...

Earning my black belt in Tae Kwon Do after four years of hard study.
Finally getting laid after years of hand jobs and oral sex.
Going to Greece and seeing my Father's homeland during its beautiful summers when I was a kid (three times).
Moving back to America having spent almost three years in Germany.
Falling in love (and subsequently having my heart broken about three times).
Rapping on stage about four times at a local venue with a more famous band, who wanted me to collaborate with them.
Placing in the eyes of the audience during my school's talent show, dancing, and every other time I've performed dancing.
Performing in my first, and probably last, stage musical with a packed house (three times).
Graduating high school.
Winning first place in my division at my first and last Tae Kwon Do tournament.
Seeing Born of Osiris, Despised Icon, and The Faceless at Summer Slaughter Tour.

In a few months, I'll probably be adding "passing basic training" to this list.

These are great to read. There's another one I'll share-

I had to go to summer school when I was in high school because I was sick for three months when I was a Junior. It was a miserable experience being with the collection of fuckwits that made up summer school classes. There was a chick in one class that was an AWFUL c--t to me (because of a very long story involving the t-shirt I wore the first day).

Anyway, about two weeks after summer school ended I was driving past her at an intersection RIGHT after she had apparently had a car wreck. She was standing on the road next to her car, and it looked like she been rear-ended by another lady. I slowed down enough that she saw who I was and I yelled out the window, "NICE DRIVING! LOOKS LIKE YOU STILL ENJOY GETTING BUMPED IN THE ASS!!!"

The look on her face is etched in my memory.
