Here is an exchange I just witnessed.
Frantic woman: Excuse me sir, I am really sorry to bother you, but I lost my wallet and I desperately need $5 so I can get home.
Naive looking man with welcoming grey beard and smile while pulling out cash: I don’t have a five, only twenties sorry.
Woman: I wouldn’t ask, but I am really, really desperate, you couldn’t give me a twenty if I gave you back a ten?
Man: Um, Um, Um, well, you know.
Women pulling out a ten: Please, I really need it.
Man, reluctantly hands over a twenty and takes the ten.
Woman turns around and as soon as he can’t see her anymore her frantic face changes into a beaming smile and she walks away with a smug skip.
The conclusion is obvious – the bus in Sydney must cost FIFTEEN DOLLARS!!! Why are you smiling lady, you should be OUTRAGED at having to pay that much to get home. Less smiling and more writing to your local government representative lady!!!!
I guess the real question is have you ever staple gunned your face to another persons face? It hurts but you end up getting to know them better.
