weird thing that just happened

[asakiyume]

I was talking to my neighbor on her front lawn, and an unknown-to-us guy, White guy in his 50s, maybe, or maybe 60s, short silvery hair and sunglasses on, drives up. He rolls down the window and...

Him: Hey, hey, I need to ask you something.

Us: .... Yes?

Him: My daughter is thinking of moving into this neighborhood, is looking to move into this neighborhood, but I need to know: are there a lot of Trump supporters here?

Us: .... There are ... some. You'll see a few signs if you drive around.

(I would guess my neighborhood is 80% anti-Trump or neutral and 20% pro-Trump.)

Him: But it's mainly anti-Trump, right? She's coming from Texas and doesn't want to live with a whole bunch of Trump supporters.

(I can't speak for my neighbor, but at this point I was feeling very uncomfortable about this guy.)

Us: Well, yes, there are probably more anti-Trump people than pro-Trump people, but you'll find both.

Him: Okay, thanks. *Drives off with a vroom along a quiet residential road.*

Me: That felt fake. I don't think that guy was really asking for his daughter.

Her: He drove off like a Trump supporter.

It was very strange

When we were looking at this neighborhood I asked one of the old guys if this was a loud neighborhood and he said, "You can hear the cows sometimes."

That's a great answer!
