Doom Metal Alchemist Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 A guy in the waiting room that looked about the same age as my dad wearing a Sonic the Hedgehog shirt. I kinda wanted to snap a pic but figured even asking his permission would be really rude. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I guess the question is why didn't you at least ask if he was a fan....Because I saw this old lady in Corpus with a Pussy Wagon shirt on (the truck from Kill Bill).....And while KB is no StH, I still have my doubts that she was wearing it because she was a fan of the movie...Sometimes old people get shit from good will either because they are on a budget or just really cheap...>And yes, I used acronyms just to piss you off. But my mom is a cheap old person....She has her retirement, she still gets a check from Mack truck, who she worked for back in the 80s, and she gets Social Security....She can be living it up, but shes clutching those pennies like they have to last her another 100 years....Except when seafood is involved...She'll bust out a whole guap for some seafood.

I was never a Sonic / Sega fan to begin with, so it would seem an awkward conversation to start with a stranger old enough to be my dad, lol.

Would it be that good for me to start conversations with strangers about things I don't really care about and just interested me just because I wouldn't think someone in their demographic would be into it?

Chapinator_X Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 It should be fine if you scribble over the guy’s face so that it doesn’t give away his identity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what about when I actually snap it? I never take sneaky pics of strangers so I have no idea how I'd take a pic of him without being totally blatant about it.

You’d have to either focus on the screen intently or pretend you’re taking a selfie. No one would act like you’re spying on them if you flash a wide grin or stick your tongue out as if you’re trying to send a social media post on where you’re at. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
