There is this little girl in my neighborhood who makes the absolute worst tasting lemonade I've ever had in my life, though she does give generous portions. I feel obligated to stop every time she makes eye contact, so I guess she knows a sucker when she sees one. LOL

Edit: a word (top to stop) And y’all are so nice!!! Thank you!

Give the munchkins some pocket change, and you get some highly concentrated sugarwater that will either give you the energy to conquer your day or just die in a manic sugar-induced craze.

Sure, it's a gamble, but it's fair trade. The kids get to buy their Yu-Gi-Oh cards or whatever, and you get the combined feeling of an artery-crushing sugar rush as well as the feeling of getting fleeced by a gang of rambunctious youths.

There's a little girl in one town I used to live in who sells cocoa by the park in winter. BRILLIANT. summer brings lemonade. She's living in an apartment next to the park so she's got that prime location locked down and everything.

She only charges 50c but I figure in today's market what she's selling is worth like 2 bucks so I throw her a fiver when I see her.
