Classic!
Earlier today while toting along with my friend, Jay, I relayed my dire need for a scooter battery charger kit. And, conveniently, we happened upon a little scooter shop, pulled over, wandered in.
We enter and I ask the feller working at the counter, "Hey, do you guys sell scooter battery chargers?"
"Sell what now?"
"Like a charger kit. You know, for when your scooter battery gets cold."
"Oh, yeah. No, we don't. But [insert business name I've forgotten here] does. It's just up the street. You know where the strip club is?"
Did he just use the strip club as a landmark that he assumed I'd know of? Oh he did!
"Sure do."
"Yep, it's right next to that."
Boom! Was this a "male bonding" moment? According to Jay, it was. Her entire demeanor when he utilized the strip club as a landmark clearly threw her off, and has caused me a great deal of laughter and entertainment. She later relayed, "I doubt if I had gone in and asked that same question that he would have used that as a mutually acknowledged landmark."
Which is true. I do doubt that - and it's a first for me, definitely. Oh the strange and highly amusing world I'm stumbling into.

Scooters must be pretty commonly used where you are that you can conveniently just pass by a scooter shop.
That's very cool. It's definitely a strange new world.
