- I gave $5 to a homeless man a few days ago. I walked by him yesterday and he was sitting in the same spot...enjoying a movie on his portable DVD player. Can I get my five bucks back please? Did he steal it? Either that or I missed an incredible sale at Best Buy over the weekend.
- (I get into a cab around Union Square)
Me- Just take a left at the next light.
Cabbie- Ok.
(we proceed to drive by the left hand turn)
Me- Where are we going?
Cabbie- This way. (and points forward)
Me- I can see that. Why are we going this way?
Cabbie- Because you told me to go straight at the light.
Me- No, I said go left.
Cabbie- No, you said go straight...you wanna bet?
Me- Ugh, what?
- I really don't wanna hate the people on the sidwalk that stop you in stride, get in front of you and try to get you to donate a minimum of $20 to charities right on the spot...but I do.
- The other day I walked into a corner deli, picked up the paper, read the front page headline and without even thinking, put it in my bag and walked over to order a sandwich. I get to the counter to pay and the guy was like, "Anything else?" I was like,"Yeah, the paper." He handed me one and I was like, "I've already got one right he-..." I started looking for it, couldn't find it, realized it was in my bag...opened my bag and said "Oh..ugh...this...too." And hesitantly put it back in my bag as I was given a much deserved staredown from the guy behind the counter.
