I went to torchys for lunch. I usually sit at the bar. It full except for a seat between a couple and a guy with an electric drill. I sit down between them. Dude with the drill starts showing me a video of some dude freestyling in a car with a (black)girl playing the violin. We start talking about the current state of hip hop. Then he tells me he been out like 7 months, been working handy man jobs to get by and some dudes he knew just tried to rob him. He starts telling me how you used to be about that life and whatnot. Long story short, dude paid for my lunch just for listening to him.
Sometimes it’s ok to talk to strangers.
