“Remember when people were content to be unambitious, sleep till eleven, just hang out with their friends? You had no occupation whatsoever, maybe working a couple of hours a week at a coffee shop?”

Got off the train in downtown Portland, at about 1 in the morning. Was trying to take a shortcut to my hotel. Went through a dark alley. A shadowy figure started approaching me. I braced myself for the worst, as I do in these sketchy situations. As he got within a few feet, he said to me "Hey, you have a wonderful night, bro!"
