I was tipped a new testament once. Seriously. This guy comes in and gets his gelato, then he says, "have you let Jesus into your heart?" I wanted a pithy answer to make him go away, but all I said was that I had enough in there already, thank you though. He gave me a small new testament, signed to me with several quotations. Weird.
Well, at least you're a good person. Misguided, but good. I'm apparently a horrible person. *bats eyelashes* Moi??
I have a regular customer, nicest guy ever, who brings me copies of the gospel according to st Thomas, for example, with highlights, references, footnotes... All scribbled in. He knows I'm a religion major, see, and we have the most interesting conversations... but he also believes himself to be a faith healer, and I have to really try and hold back my snarkiness when he goes into it. He's so nice, I try not to offend him, but... Arg.
