<\/a><\/p>\nYou are walking down a Canadian city street.<\/p>\n
A stranger approaches.<\/p>\n
You,<\/p>\n
a) Avert eye contact and feign ignorance of their presence.<\/p>\n
b) Stare intently at the horizon until the apex of proximity to the stranger, at which point you glance nervously at them.<\/p>\n
c) Perhaps mutter a curt “hi”, breaking into a\u00a0painstaking smile.<\/p>\n
d) Check them out shamelessly.<\/p>\n
The stranger either,<\/p>\n
a) Ignores you, too.<\/p>\n
b) Glances at you, too.<\/p>\n
c) Acknowledges you briefly.<\/p>\n
d) Checks you out shamelessly.<\/p>\n
e) Asks you for money\/a phone number\/directions\/your dog’s name.<\/p>\n
Everyone walks away.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
You are walking down a New Orleans street, say, in the Marigny.<\/p>\n
a) A man waves at you from his front porch.<\/p>\n
b) A passerby asks how you’re doing.<\/p>\n
c) A group of children are dancing in the music that spills out of their house, and their parents all look up, nod, and smile.<\/p>\n
d) Some kids are having drinks and don’t mind if you join them, bum a cigarette, and play their instruments.<\/p>\n
e) All of the above.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
