jittery, skinny older guy with a droopy mustache and a nylon ball cap:
Hey, Hi there, I was just wondering- do you fancy yourself something of a wordsmith?
me, Nut Alarm resounding in my ears:
No.
Guy:
Oh, hey, that's too bad, because I was just looking for some help with maybe finding some different words to use.
Me:
What sort of help are you looking for?
Guy, proffering stack of papers:
I was wondering if you could read this and give me some ideas about different ways to say things?
Me:
No, sorry.
He rattled his papers and scurried out the door to look for some other human thesaurus.
