They'll Reach And Reach And Reach And Never Be Able To Get It

"If you work in a gas station and have a window that shows all the tickets set into your counter, there's usually just 2 panes of glass that sit on top of each other and I cant tell you how many times I've put quarters or dollar coins in between those panes of glass. Definitely a cheap source of entertainment for a few hours."

A Dad We Can All Aspire To Be

"When you're in a full car. Choose a target, preferably somone walking by themself. When you are close to them, honk a couple of times until you get their attention then tell everyone in the car to wave hysterically. My dad used to do this all the time when my family was doing some kind of roadtrip. They'll walk around for the rest of the day thinking "who the f-ck were those people".

Annoyed In Multiple Languages

"If your in a tourist part of a country it's very likely people will try to sell you things and they know a little English, if you respond in a language not often spoken on that continent they can get confused. In China someone tried to sell me something and when I responded with "nein, das Deutschland Uber allies, panzer wagen gewher"(the only German I know from ww2 games and movies) they look on their face was utter confusion because I was so obviously an American."

They Would Constantly Wonder What You Say Behind Their Backs

"If you're talking with someone and a third person walks up...take whatever the last sentence said was about, and say "speaking of <...>, here's <their name>." Like... "Speaking of my neighbor's 12-year-old daughter, here's Steve." "Speaking of being drunk and naked, here's Rachelle."
