This is a question "You're doing it wrong"

Chthonic confesses: "Only last year did I discover why the lids of things in tubes have a recessed pointy bit built into them." Tell us about the facepalm moment when you realised you were doing something wrong.

Argh, and you get that moment
when you see someone on the street, and you know them, but you don't know the context... so you don't know whether to smile or nod or say hello... or run...

Absolutely
And then theres the ones you recognise but not where from, smile a polite hello, maybe with a friendly wave so as not to offend by not remembering where you know them from.
And realise later on they are an actor off TV who doesnt know you from Adam.
Pfft I guess they are used to that anyway

Maybe they feel exactly the same way.
So they're walking past thinking, "Do I know that person?" rather than "Oh god, another fan..."

Unless they're an utter prick, of course. You get the impression with some actors that if their mother stopped them on the street, they'd give 'em an autograph.

LOL
Yep met a few of those.

But also some very nice ones
I once had a very odd converation with someone i thought i knew about buying knickers.
( too long a story to relate here)
Afterwards someone said 'why were you talking knickers with him?'
erm why not?
Cos he's on (insert some famous soap opera)

oh, oops I thought he was someone I knew
