Esprit de urinale

Hey,

So I'm standing at a urinal the other day, doing my thing, when a stranger pulls up to the spot next to me, gets his business underway and then says to me "You only rent, you never buy".

Friends -- I'm engaged in serious, meditative, business. Please, even if you're a friend of mine, don't chat with me at such a moment. And if you don't know me at all? Seriously.

Plus, really kinda the oldest bathroom one-liner ever.

But I give the socially appropriate "heh" and we finish up. He's done first, says, "have a good one" and leaves. It's like the guy doesn't have the first clue about how to use a public restroom.

However, later that night, I realize there was a super-appropriate come-back to his first remark which I shall now share with you here:

"You never buy, you're always renting."
"And the worst part is that you never get your security deposit back."

Your Welcome
Tom

Holy moly, I'd like to see the IRB justification on that one.

RIGHT? My prof says this was conducted in Sweden where they are apparently more laid back about such things. I can't imagine.
