I get approached by people on the streets sometimes, even sketchy guys after dark, but usually nobody does anything bad, they just want money or a cigarette or directions... except the guy who made fun of my car. "Hey! Hey, how's it going? That car, it's real brown. ...Does it run good?" And then he laughed at me. He might've been stoned, though.
Also, in the world of my parents (a slightly alcoholic one, it's true. it goes with BLTs or chili and sports), beer is a perfectly legit afternoon drink. It's hard liquor and wine you've got to wait for...
