Entitlement

Cab

It wasn’t raining but my cab driver had turned on his windshield wipers and he didn’t turn them off, all the way from Park and 37th till Madison and 77th.
I should have asked him: “Excuse me, but why do you have your windshield wipers turned on?” But I was afraid that this question would have offended him, so I kept silent.
We are all entitled to our own neuroticisms.
