I remember once a number of years ago, I was driving through a housing estate area, with my mother in the passenger seat.
We happened upon a car in the middle of the road and someone standing next to the car window conversing. I sat there patiently waiting 15-20 seconds while they wrapped up their conversation and watched the car leave.
I pull up next to the man, still standing where he was in the street, and I start talking to him like I know him, introduced my mother. She said "Hi, nice to meet you" and they shook hands and made all cordial like.
A few moments later the man finally got up the nerve to ask who I was. I told him I was no one and just felt like saying hi. As I was driving off, the look of confusion on the mans face as he stood in the street watching me leave, and seeing my mothers face contort as she slowly came to realize what just happened was priceless.
I had a wonderfully good laugh at their expense for quite a long while.
