I went shopping yesterday. Not to spend oodles of money, of course, just to trawl the charity shops in search of a warm jumper and to buy some books, also from charity shops. I love bargain hunting. Anyway, during one of the points where I stopped in the street to light up a cigarette, this chavette girl came up to me.
"Can I borrow a fag?" she drawled. I've never really understood the point of this question; firstly, just how can you borrow a cigarette? Do you smoke it and then hand the filter back? Second, why the hell should a complete stranger give you one of their precious smokes? I never do; my smokes are for me, and on occasion, my friends (who always pay me back in kind) so I told the girl no. She immediately gave me stinkeye and muttered "Selfish bitch," as she walked off. XD
Note for Americans: In England, the word "fag" is slang for a cigarette. Just so you don't immediately jump to the wrong conclusion.
