A Foolish Case

A coconut huckster nicked my main man’s wrist with the macabre machete he was brandishing in order to avoid giving back the change. This senseless impulse erupted in broad daylight. Moments later, a vacuous vixen in the complaints cubicle at the Legon Police Station took one languid look at my friend’s bleeding hand, and barked, “foolish case”.

  1. Mmmmm I'm beginning to feel that any accounts of urban aggression are bound to expose some of the illogical behaviour our people(s) engage in on a daily basis. Was the kube guy like crazy or possessed?! Unfort I have had an encounter at the said police station before and I'm not too surprised...

  4. Did he cut your friend before or after he asked for his change back?

    That 'vixen' deserves a slap!

  5. Well, I think we shouldn't be so quick to pass judgment. The case might be deeper than we think!!

  6. Edward, the facts are as given here. I believe judgment can safely be passed, and the 2 aggressors can safely be called 'stupid'.

  7. Raine, he started brandishing the machete when my friend had finished the milk and it was obviously time to give the change.

  8. Tye, I agree. But I also believe that the average urban resident experiences such idiotic days ... well, daily!
