Stranger: jumps me with a compliment
Me, out loud: "Awww, thank you!"
Me, in my head: WTF? Who is this, and what are they trying to get from me?

"assault homeless people with hot lunches and hugs"
Meaning you hug them to lock them in place, then splatter boiling sauces on their faces, jesus
"Hope you like pineapple on your pizza!"
Feed the homeless by all means, but it's probably a mistake to startle random Americans.
You can startle random Canadians though that's fine
Can confirm.
I once bumped into a guy and knocked his coffee out of his hand, 100% my fault for not paying attention, he said (in a very particular way) "Oh soory"
I did a double take and started laughing because he had a maple leaf shirt on and everything. Crisp high five to the first person who guesses where he got the coffee. He even denied my attempt to compensate him for the drink.
It could not get more stereotypical and I'm still not convinced I wasn't part of some practical joke video.
"WHAT TH--oops, sorry for getting startled like that, bud!"
Hoodrat shit
Goodrat*
Pretty sure some more organized gangs actually do do this.
I know the Yakuza will act as reserve depots to distribute emergency supplies from in the aftermaths of earthquakes.
Went to a comedy show Saturday in Chicago and was delighted by the rolling jubilee of compliments happening in the ladies room queue. Just people passing the queue on their way out complimenting those waiting in line. It seemed like each of us just wanted to keep it going when we left. Heartwarming
