Tired of going from shop to shop and arguing with his wife about it, he stands outside the next shop in protest.
While waiting a prostitute walks up to him and asks if he wants a quickie in the alley.
After thinking it over, he replies: “Well why the heII not. I haven’t tried much in my life and I’m not getting any younger.”
He digs through his pockets and pulls out a $5 bill.
“This is all I got.” he says and tries to hand it over.
“What the helI do you take me for? $5 won’t get you shìt.” the prostitute replies and walks off.
After a while, the wife comes back out and the couple continue down the street. As they pass an alley a woman shouts.
“You see. That’s what $5 gets you!”
There’s not 8 million stories in the big city – there’s maybe ten tops, told thousands of times.
