Oddly Enough
I arrive to 711 to pick up an energy drink (graveyard shift) and as I am walking back out to my car I hear someone mumbling a full sentence. I'm like what the hell and look up to a bum looking at me with his eyes wide open waiting for a response. I go, "Huh?"
"Duba hai a pans n's swears?"
"Sweaters?"
"Yuh"
Now at this point I assumed he was saying sweaters as small talk BECAUSE I was out in a 50 degree environment in a t-shirt so I said "Oh yea, haha" and turned back around. But then he asked me again... this time I heard him.
"Do you want to buy pants and sweaters?" holding his only black Hefty trash bag out in front of him.
My first thought is, did a bum just try to sell me pants and sweaters in a trash bag? I don't think irony is the right word for this.
