LMNAO!!!!!!!!!!! This surprises me not in the least, having lived in big cities for most of my life.
I live in Atlanta now and, a few years back, I was taking public transportation to run errands. Waiting at the Five Points Station downtown for a northbound train, I saw two men engaged in a lively conversation. About ten minutes later, as I was hanging on a strap on the train heading north, I saw one of those men walk by me, holding out a card saying, "I am a deaf-mute" and asking for contributions. Being the kind,m generous soul I am, I waited until he got past me, then roared at the top of my lungs in his direction, scaring him senseless and making him jump a foot in the air.
