DC is great. You see so much weird stuff every day, that after a while you don't even notice it. I hear New York is the same way. So last week was visiting week for prospective undergraduate students and their parents. They take a tour of campus, and then come see us in financial aid, and see if they can afford to go here (they can't). We had a shortage of counselors, so we had about 20 students and parents sit at the nearby tables until a counselor could see them. The tables were set up with lemonade and cookies.As they were sitting at the tables, a mentally ill homeless man comes in from outside, sits down, and starts eating cookies. After a while, he starts yelling at all the students telling him he hates them, and that their ancestors did terrible things to him, and cursing at the top of his lungs. Then he tried to fight the security guard that took him out. I don't think that group of students will be joining us next fall...
A few minutes later, a man dressed in a top hat, wizards cape, and carrying a wizards staff jumped down the stairs. He looked at a newspaper, screamed the f word, and ran away. We decided that he had cast a time travel spell earlier, and realized it didn't work when he saw the newspaper.

When i was in crystal city last year this dude was standing outside the crystal city metro station. You don't forget a sign about Ninjas kidnapping a family. Small world.
I wish I worked there. Seriously. It'd be a lot more exciting than the nut jobs I actually work with...
this is hilarious!
