so I'm sitting at a table at a local coffee shop (the best science is always done over coffee or beer!). and while I am regaling my chilean, slovakian, and japanese friends about how we fish in the south (via electricity or explosives), some 18 year old snot comes up and asks: " does anybody have any money?" everybody in the outdoor area looked confused so he says: " you know 5's 10's and 20's?"
since he happened to look right at me and was standing near, i decided to let him know the score. now I am not gonna lie about it, or try to slink away, so I said, : "yeah, and you can't have any."
from here he seems confused and asks: " you are not going to give any money?"
" hell, no."
"Why, not?"
so rather than say something smart "like get a job" or something, told him how I really felt: " cause I don't want to"
now the really funny thing about it is, at this point he seems to really and truely get pissed off that I won't give him money. the same guy that is wearing better clothes than me and that i just saw talking on a cell phone (evidently he has enough money to pay this cell bill).
so as he scowls at me, I was gonna turn back and start talking, but thinking better i just push back from the table a bit (in case he takes a swing), and stare at him blankly as if thinking, "somethings annoying me, but I don't know what it is." finally he storms off muttering something to himself. finally I get back to telling about the fine art of chicken farming in the south.
can you believe the nerve of some people?
