Me: 2; Them: 0


This time, it was a newspaper salesman: only (insert some non-zero dollar amount here) for Sunday's paper, and only (insert some strictly larger dollar amount here) for all seven days.

I heard him out, then explained that I could go into the library at school and read the paper for free there.

Even on weekends, he asked?

Even on weekends, I said.

And that was that.
