    "Well, I'm not having anyone staring in disbelief at MY willy suspension!"

    When I was 16 my older sister and I were in Paris. After a few days we decided to head to the south of France.

    This conversation actually took place at the train station. I'll begin with the ticket seller's queries then follow with my responses.

    The ticket seller asked us in quick succession:

    • Are you American? Do you speak French? Good day. How many tickets and where are you going?

    We'll take two. Yes, two to Toulouse, sir!
