Funny drunk guy story

[Thor S Magic Bathtub]

About 10:00 last night I was sitting on my gs out in the parking lot waiting for her to warm up. It's pouring rain and freaking cold by the way.I see a guy stumble out of his apartment and head towards the dumpster. He drops in a few empty bottles then makes his way back towards me.
At this point I considered taking off but wanted to let the bike warm up more so I wait for him to get to me. He approached me as asks "Hey man, can you give me a ride downtown?"
It took me a little by surprise... so I just said the obvious, "No, I'm on a motorcycle, you need a helmet."
He takes a step back, looks at my bike a little puzzled, then says, "Oh, I see... alright, see ya." And I took off.

Ah, thats actually cool.

The most I ever have people approach me for are cigarettes, and the money. I never give them either. Oh and time.

Just the other day some guy comes up to me at Lowes with some crazy story. After about 5 minutes he finally asks me for some money for "gas". He'll have to get his high money from someone else.

funny.  the exact same thing happene to me on Friday.  I was waiting to pull out onto one of the main streets downtown and I hear somebody yelling... "HEY... HEY!!  Can I get a ride about three blocks that way?!?!".  I figured it was someone yelling at a friend in a car until I look over and it is some drunk fella lookin' right at me.  I shook my head no (what do I look like, a taxi?).  And he asked again, just to be sure, and I hauled ass out of there before he decided to walk into the street to ask a third time.

I'm not sure why, but something about being drunk must make people confuse motorcycles with taxis or buses.  

something akin to motor-vehicular beer-goggling?  :dunno:
