What Were They Thinking?

Ok, these are something that, when I looked back, made me say: "What?!"

• "I found a cent on the sidewalk, and I put it into the policeman's hand. The policeman took the money, and nods. I happily said: "See you, Mr. Police Officer!" See, that is an old children's song from China that told children to give the stuff they find on the street to the policemen. Sure, it's a nice thing, to give money you find on the street to give to the police. Twenty bucks, maybe, but, really... One cent? First of all, if I were the police officer, I would just take the cent, then one day, I'll realize that I have money in my pockets. Number two, the police in China's, well... a bit more corrupt than the usual police, you see. There are lots of nice ones, but if some poor kid gets this pedophile, then...
• "If I go to the States indefinately, I'm not an immigrant because I'm like, white." No comment.
• My friend would rather take the metro, then walk ten minutes to get to her house instead of taking the bus and walking for two minutes. Her reason? "I get carsick" Well, I guess it's good enough of an excuse. But still, it will sure bring up some giggles later.
