On occasions but I prefer to interact, or just take in scenery.

At put in bay in lake erie we people watch all the time but lately we are on hooker watch because the local paper said prostitution has increased on the island. So now its "oh there's one" or "is that one".

Yes. I like to say it's part of my job.

I used to.

I've taken my best portraits of people when they don't think anyone is watching. It's ironic that I do enjoy people watching, but don't like them.

People watching is one of my favorite sports. Sometimes if I’m with someone who I know and who gets my sense of humor it’s fun to make up stories about people.

Being comfortable not speaking is a gift

I adore people watching. There are so many ways to enjoy it. For example you can make up stories around them, like that old couple. He wanted to go Italian and she Chinese and they`re both sulking at the compromise. Conversely you can simply observe. This can be very rewarding as you get an insight to human behaviour. This is how fortune tellers and their ilk make a living. My friend would often ask me to predict how someone would act. I usually bet £1 on the outcome and rarely lost. For example a couple came into the bar and I said that she would buy the 1st drinks. I won and when he asked how I knew this would happen I told him that the guy was much better looking and that she was having to try hard to keep him. Once I even predicted what car a woman owned.

Only if it’s part of my job.

Yes indeed sometimes wonder the back stories to some

Yes, I people watch. It is a good idea for getting out of the house.

All the time

Yes it can be interesting.

I try not to go out very often with the intention of spying on someone. however it's impossible not to people watch when you see something bizarre or happy or sad.

I'm with Paul. I prefer to sit with my back to the corner, in a position where i can see all entrances and exits. I'm constantly looking around, trying to keep tabs on any body moving generally towards me.

On a much lighter level, yeah, making fun of random people was one of my ex-wife and i's favorite things to do on our honeymoon in New Orleans. Grab a drink and a balcony seat and see what walks by.

Sometimes....I seat by the seawall and do...is funny but you can kind of guess their mood..

I posted about going to Wal-Mart and watching people last week. I like to.

Sometimes, especially if they look like they could possibly be a threat.
You never know anymore.

Yes I do its better than a zoo sometimes

I love to people-watch. I do it all the time at my Apartments. Some messed-up stuff goes on in real life and it's more interesting than TV.

Always!
