John

Kyle:  Oh man.

John:  What happened?

Kyle:  I just stepped in some gum.

John:  Oh. No kidding. Let me see. Oh. That sucks.

Kyle:  That does suck man. Let me wipe my foot off real quick.

John:  All right.

Kyle:  Dude, you’d think people would at least have the courtesy to throw their gum in a garbage can, not just leave it on the street.

John:  Isn’t there a fine for that? Isn’t it littering?

Kyle:  I don’t think so. I just think it’s being a bad member of the community.

John:  Yeah. You better get that off before you track it into my car.

Kyle:  Yeah. Here. Just a sec. I’ll catch up.
