A drunk man approaches us (me + partner in crime + dog) in the night. He was shouting insults at the Prime Minister’s house until that moment and I was hoping he would not get too close. He starts psychobabbling about government, corruption and social ineptitude, so the partner in crime goes with the routine “Desculpe, não falamos Português” (sorry, we do not speak Portuguese) as this usually works like a charm when you need to drive the loons away. Well, it didn’t work this time as the man asked without even blinking, “E o cão?” (and the dog?) to which the partner in crime replied, “Não fala também” (he doesn’t either), condemning us to listen to the man raving for the next 20 minutes.
