      I once made a cashiers head nearly explode by refusing to give her a phone number over the counter to pay cash for a shirt.

      “But I need it!”

      “No, you really dont.”

      “The system wont allow the sale without it”

      “So enter a bunch of random numbers, I dont care”

      “I cant do that”

      “Why?”

      “Because then some random person will get texts from us.”

      “Ok”

      “So can I just…”

      “Nope. I exchange money for shirt, thats how this works.”

      “Ummmmmm” Smoke starts pouring from ears
