  • I’ve never fallen for bad scams luckily but I fall for little ones sometimes. Like once I was entering the subway in a country where I didn’t speak the language and this guy coming the other way said the trains were cancelled, so I asked how do I get to X place, and he’s like “Oh, my friend has a taxi company, come with me and I’ll sort you out”. I was just about to follow him when I came back to my senses. Obviously there was nothing wrong with the trains and he was trying to fleece a tourist… or kidnap a woman, but I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt.


  • Not all, but most don’t seem to have adventures. When I was a kid I’d go off into the woods and build a den or climb a tree, we once spent a whole week trying to dam a stream, god knows why. None of my friends kids go anywhere by themselves, a lot of them do ‘forest school’ where they’ll be taken by adults to a sanitised woodland and taught how to build a teepee with pre cut wood, and it’s just not the same thing.
