"Just a stranger on a bus.."

Seriously though, what would you do if you met your deity of choice in human form, just chillin' around your neighborhood. What would you ask them or say to them?

EDIT: I just realized I never chose a deity myself. I choose Thor, and I'd ask him what he thought of the movie coming up. I'd also licke to meet Buddha, just to see if I can tempt him into a fight. Finally I'd see about getting Anansi to prank some people for me. Seems like the kind of thing a trickster God would be into.

What would I say to my deity of choice? "Dr. Manhattan! I'm so happy to see you that I'm not even bothered by the fact that you opted not to put on any pants today!"

I'd probably shout "HOLY FUCK! YOU'RE JESU-" and then be rugby tackled by him. Or should that be Him? I'unno.

Does Jesus count as a deity?

Considering my favourite god and possible deity of choice is Hermes, he'd probably nick my wallet. And then I'd get pissed off and yell at him. Then he'd curse me for all eternity. Wouldn't be pretty...

Dionysus though...I'd ask him to a bar and want him to pay for my drinks, because if I'd pay for his, I'd end up broke.

Yes, he's basically the avatar of god.

I would sit next to him/her(it?), with a catalog from a game store and say "sigh, I really want this game, but I can't afford it... what can I do?!"

What if God *were* one of us. It's the subjunctive.

So if I ran into Athena, I'd be very, very respectful (you never want to upset those Greek gods). If I could permission to have a conversation with her, I'd ask her lots and lots of questions about how it all really went down. I'd also ask her if she could pull a Tiresias on me.

He (the Christian one) already tried it, and called himself 'Jesus', if the Bible's contents is to be believed.

Beyond that, as I don't follow any religion, it'd take something special for a deity of Atheism to firstly exist, and then appear on Earth before me.

Would he be just a slob like one of us too?

Because I don't know if I could deal with an all powerful god like the Abrahamic one being a slob.

I would really prefer meeting Odin or something though. Would be pretty awesome. I guess I would ask next week's lottery numbers or something. Or perhaps ask him to give me a book describing the creation of the universe in perfect detail.

But Clint Eastwood already is in human form. Though I'd probably try to talk to him, and he'd just tell me to get off his lawn. :(

And I liked the reference OP. I like the song myself, and used to watch the show attatched regularly. Though I've forgotten the title. The name will come back eventually.

Yep.

I'd probably end up being someone like Tanaguchi. I get to be the boring normal person while my friend gets pulled into some weird club like the SOS Brigade. Ha.

...If I met a god, I'd hope it was someone cool like Martel (Tales of Symphonia), or Athena... Or maybe a warrior god who wouldn't just decapitate me for noticing their existence, who might take me under their wing. That'd be cool.

...so basically "Can you teach me anything and everything you know that I could handle?" no matter the deity.

Eris wouldn't be hard to spot. She is such a mischievous child who can be a ***** at time. Also, I would write another book from my own perspective.
