    In today's busy world, to keep your customers you need a distinctive memorable sound, so I always cup my hand to my armpit and squawk a tinny fart sound.

    Big smile, and a cheerful "Give me your wallet or I'll kill you!".

    I usually walk up to folks with a cardboard sign and tell them I need money for pot and alcohol

    I naturally acknowledge women 17% less than men. Not sure why?

    I wish we had a different common greeting in English. The "H" sound force you to expel the air from your lungs, so I find it kind of annoying actually to say "Hi" or "hello". We should go back to something like "goo-day sir".

    I wish I had an English accent, I'd love to talk like an 19th century British aristocrat.
