on the road: Brussels

American: Where are you from?
Me: Singapore.
American: Boring town but close to Phucket (as pronounced).
Me: Yes, but at least we don't go on random shooting sprees.
American: (Ignores me) In Europe, they kill you in different ways. 
Me: Such as?
American: Taxes, socialism, lack of empathy, corruption..
Me: I'm sorry the rest of the world isn't perfect like America.
American: (Ignoring me again) So you're visiting.
Me: Yes. You?
American: I've lived here (Brussels) 10 years.
