I've only had temp jobs for the last 5 years, and I've taken a part-time job demoing electronics in the Sam's Club to make ends meet between jobs.
On Thursday I had an odd encounter with a customer, and I think I've been pranked. The reason I'm sharing it on the Fukufics form (the last Ranma 1/2 forum that I've subscribed to that is still around) will become obvious.
A woman came up to me and asked where the registers were, and I pointed to the northern part of the store. She said thank you, then started heading southwest and stopped and addressed her husband and said "They are that way", and pointed to the east.
Then they started moving Southwest. I called out "Your name wouldn't happen to be Hibiki, would it?" They both looked startled, and then said "How did you know?", and I said "I've seen Ranma 1/2." Only for them to look confused. They started to leave, only for me to point to the north, and they went east.
I think I've been pranked, but I don't know who both knows I"m in the Sam's club and that I've seen Ranma 1/2. I hadn't told anybody what my schedule was this month, and I've never seen that couple before.
They were named Hibiki (or answered to it) and had no sense of direction.
The thing is, Ranma 1/2 isn't exactly the most popular anime anymore, not like Naruto or Dragon Ball. Even 20 years ago, it wasn't exactly mainstream the way Naruto is borderline these days. It's kinda ancient history. So why would somebody do a prank based on Ranma 1/2 unless they knew I was a fan?
Strange.
