before telling me he won't leave unless I give him a smile
I’m just concerned for your wellbeing mate! Do exactly what I tell you to do for no reason other than my capricious folly and I’ll maybe let you get on with your life.

Increasingly pushy chuggers. I was waiting to pick up my wife at the station yesterday and made sure to put on my sunglasses and headphones because I saw a bunch of them milling around, and propped myself in what I thought was an out of sight corner. Nope, one comes over and starts giving me his spiel, to which I politely say I'm not interested thanks. He says something else which I can't hear properly, and then makes a gesture for me to take off my headphones. I do, feeling pretty exasperated, and say 'what's up?' Then he keeps asking if I'm OK and acting concerned for my wellbeing, which I can only assume was some kind of attempt at engagement, before telling me he won't leave unless I give him a smile. I pull back my lips in a demented Terminator-style thing and he eventually fucks off. I don't think I could have made myself less approachable without wearing a literal mask and this guy still decided to stomp all over the social contract.
