Too Funny

So I am sitting in a coffee shop (no commercial plug here) when a young man walks in with a painting in his hands, sits down at a table (no drink purchase) and hangs out for a couple of hours.  I am busy doing research for my graduate studies.  My BF walks in and chats with the guy asking him questions about his art.  The guy at the table next to them hears that the artwork is for sale at the very low price of $100.00 and buys it on the spot.  He also just happens to have $100.00 cash in his pocket.  WHAT!?!?!?  Now don't get me wrong, I am very happy for the artist, but this would never happen for me! 

This is what my scenario would be:  I walk into the coffee establishment (green and white is the color of their cups).  I buy a drink because that's what you should do if you are in a retail establishment.  I would sit for a few minutes, the manager would walk up and ask what I am doing.  I would say that I am just sitting, drinking my coffee.  The manager insists that I leave, that selling art in their establishment is not allowed.  I answer, "I'm not selling it; it's just sitting there resting against the window."  I would then be reprimanded and asked to "take down the art and/or leave."  People are staring, I am turning red with embarrassment..... I leave with my painting and chuck it in the dumpster on the way out of the parking lot. 

This kid, no problems, no "hey bud get that out of here," just so cool, too cool and the art is sold.  My BF ends up being the best shill on the planet for THAT GUY!
