A MILD-MANNERED, TIMID-LOOKING MAN SAT AT A TABLE IN A LOCAL BAR. HE SAT STARING INTENTLY AT HIS DRINK. HE KEPT TIMIDLY STARING AT IT FOR 10, 20, 30 MINUTES.
FINALLY, A LOCAL BAR ROOM BRAWLER CAME OVER TO HIS TABLE AND SAT HIMSELF DOWN. THE BULLY PUSHED THE LITTLE MAN ASIDE AND GUZZLED DOWN THE DRINK HIMSELF. THE BRAWLER LAUGHED OUT LOUD AND WIPED HIS MOUTH ON HIS SLEEVE.
THE NERDY LITTLE MAN WAS VERY SURPRISED AND STARTED CRYING.
DAMN!, SAID THE BULLY, I DIDN'T THINK YOU'D TAKE IT SO HARD, LITTLE FELLA.
THIS IS THE WORST DAY OF MY LIFE, SAID THE LITTLE MAN, FIRST, I'M LATE FOR WORK AND MY BOSS FIRES ME. THEN, I GO TO LEAVE AND I FIND MY CAR WAS STOLEN. THEN, I TAKE A TAXI HOME AND I LEAVE MY WALLET IN THE CAB. THEN, I ARRIVE HOME AND I FIND MY WIFE IN BED WITH THE POOL BOY.
WELL, I GUESS THIS JUST AIN'T YOUR DAY, CHUCKLED THE BULLY, TOO BAD!
YES, SAID THE MILD-MANNERED MAN, AND AFTER ALL THAT, YOU SHOW UP AND DRINK ALL MY POISON.
