A re-written dialogue between me and the guy who persisted on lecturing me about ethical travelling...
Hippie: So, I'm just back from South America
Me: Oh, hey cool, I'm going there next year!
Hippie: oh, it's amazing.
Me: Yeah,I can't wait.
Hippie: But it's become very westernised...
Me: oh yeah?
Hippie: It's, like we have this cultural imperialism
Me (surreptitiously getting spade): mm-hmm?
Hippie: Like we think our culture is somehow superior...
Me (giving spade a few test swings): oh, totally...
Hippie: I mean, who are we to say that adequate healthcare is a good thing?
*SPADE!!*
Me: I am Tiger woods.
