I guess stalking, peeping, etc. would all fall under the same umbrealla as a "victimless crime" unless you get caught?
That's a bit different, isn't it? My intent is not quite the same as a stalker or a peeper...
Actually it isn't. There is a saying that character is doing the right thing when nobody is looking. Assessing the appropriateness of your actions through the lense of "it's ok if they don't know" seems a little...off to me.

But that's just me.
You don't see the difference in wanting to talk to someone but not disturbing him vs. Invading someone's privacy? If I followed him into his aparen't building or interrupted his phone call, you may have a point.
Did you mention to him that you had been following him for 12 (or 20) blocks, and doubled back after he went into the restaurant, waiting for him to get off the phone?
I'm guessing you didn't, although it sure would have shown him how polite you are! Yep, that would not have seemed creepy and weird at all!

That's subjective. Doesn't mean I did anything wrong. I don't regret it and I enjoyed talking to someone who I aspire to be career-wise.
I see why some would say it's weird or creepy though.

No need to defend yourself dude. There are guys I would have followed for 20 blocks to say hello.
....He thanked me, asked me my name and said he really appreciated it....
What kind of psychopath chases a 75 year old man for 20 blocks to thank him.
At least he didn't kick your ass for stalking him, that would have been only slightly more embarrassing.
A massive Giants fan. And don't throw around labels.
I guess that's why fan is short for fanatic.
I can throw around labels like psychopath all I want as you over-share weird shit you do.
I believe your actions qualify IMO. As in a f-ing weird dude, like someone on an airplane who would pick the middle seat by choice with the window and/or aisle empty. I believe your actions today qualify you as a psychopath IMO.

speaks to larger issues. Is the man of sixty who has raised a family weird when he spends one hundred dollars to buy a five dollar shirt with a kid's name on it.?
This whole thing is mad. I think the sixty year old man who has held a job and raised a kid is more admirable than the 20 year old kid who had never really worked and doesn't know jack shit.

I don't know, it sounds like Anak has all the makings of a good ambulance chaser to me.
Or at the very least, a good process server.
Don't be rude. I didn't do anything wrong. It was a nice encounter.

following them!" That is awesome!

C'mon, man!
I imagine EA walking down the street in a music video looking at the camera and singing.."why does it feel like somebody's watching meeeee"
This needs to be a thing.
Nobody there but one tiny, tiny old lady at our table.
Interesting person, staring out the window...lost in thought.
Wait, the tats, that face, ....its Iggy Pop.
Did we follow him for 20 blocks? No. Did we get snaps for the boy to show off? Nah.
Mr. Pop was in no mood.
