A: Hmm, I wonder why there's practically no one on this rush hour bus. Oh, I know, it's because it smells like skunk. Great.
A: Aww, little old guy on the bus has an old radio walkman, complete with extendable antenna. So cute.

A: The one time I decide not to get involved, they break my neighbor's door down. I assumed (wrongly) that the firefighters would have some sort of file or one of them would remember from last time that our head maintenance guy lives downstairs.
