Corner of No Fucking Way
Evening after Shadfest in Fishtown at Sketch Burger, where a sketchy looking dude is talking to two woman (sketchy too, but a little less so) eating with him at his table. They clearly know each other, but must have just recently met.
Guy asks women, "Where'd you go to school?"
Woman, "I was home-schooled."
Guy, "Oh, where's that at?"
