nice. taunt him and then leave

[clarkalastair]

@some5672 Thats not something I've ever done, or ever want to do. There are already enough obnoxious westerners in China as it is.

@clarkalastair nooo, what i meant was the guy in blue, coming, reaching into his bag, and than walking away.

@some5672 Ahh well. I think they were friends or associates, am not sure.

@clarkalastair I think the term "tourist" works as no matter were tourist come from they many tend to forget politeness.

@wanttoseemysnake As with most things that I do, I seek permission first. In this case it was consensual. It was of interest to me, and a record of something different to what I'm used to in England and in my travels. I agree that some tourists use cameras overly much and it disengages them with the surroundings and introduces a separation. This wasn't the case here. I hope that is understandable and polite of me to say.

Did you actually buy any of his pop corn or at least tip him for letting you video him working?
