I saw the duo a grocery store in Edinburgh yesterday. I told them how cool it was to meet them in person, but I didn't want to be a douche and bother them and ask for photos or anything.
Marcus said, "Oh, like you're doing now?"
I was taken aback, and all I could say was "Huh?" but he kept cutting me off and going "huh? huh? huh?" and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard Mike chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw them both trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in their hands without paying.
The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like "Excuse me, you need to pay for those first." At first they kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.

When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, Mike stopped her and told her to scan them each individually "to prevent any electrical infetterence," and then turned around and winked at me. I don't even think that's a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

This is an old copy pasta story, still funny though.

Delicious copy pasta. Also, every repost is a repost repost.

I met them recently too!
I was in Scotland and I happened to run into Marcus at a local diner. He was sitting alone and it looked like he'd only just started eating, so I decided to just go up and say hi (if his friends were there I would have just let him be). Anyway, I walk up and say hello and tell him I know him from Boards of Canada. Nothing. No reaction. Doesn't say a word. He just sits there, staring right through me. Staring intensely, but with no emotion whatsoever.

I begin to feel awkward, so I say "sorry to disturb you" and start to walk away but before I even get a chance to turn he just gets up suddenly and starts walking toward me, still making full eye contact. At first I thought he was going to try and barge into me or something, but at the last minute (like an inch away from me) he turns and heads toward the trash can. Then he starts dumping everything on his plate into it. One by one. Potatoes, carrots, everything. He picks up each bit of food up, holds it high above the can and drops it. Some of it (the steak) didn't even make it into the trash because he wasn't looking at what he was doing.

Finally his plate is empty and this is the part that really fucking weirded me out. He looks around to check no one (but me) is looking, then slides the plate under his jacket and walks out.

I was just astounded, it was pretty surreal.

I met them yesterday too. I told them I was their fan, but I think I was too nervous and stuttered too much and started to annoy me. They got really pissed off and were screaming at me to go away, but I was trying to take a picture and couldn't do anything straight. They probably thought I wanted to get into a fight, and my mom got scared, and said "You’re movin’ with your auntie and uncle in Bel-Air." I whistled for a cab and when it came near, the license plate said "fresh" and it had dice in the mirror. If anything I could say that this cab was rare, but I thought "Nah, forget it. Yo home to Bel-Air!" I pulled up to the house about 7 or 8, and I yelled to the cabby "yo holmes, smell ya later!" Looked at my kingdom, I was finally there, to sit on my throne as the prince of Bel-Air.
