I'm so glad I'm not 20 anymore

A dialog from today.

Him: "Hey, man, you look American?"

Me: "Good call"

Him: "Can you tell me where I am?"

Me: "Just west of Paris, in a suburb called Neuilly. In general you'll do better with English here than in Paris itself."

Him: "So I'm trying to get back to my hostel. It's in the 'vingtième'?"

Me: "Of course it is. And what you're going to do is get on this train and ride it until it stops, and then ask a local about the hostel."

Him: "Paris is fucking baller, man. I've never partied like this before. I need to get back to the hostel because there's this incredibly hot girl there. She said she wants to hang out tonight."

Me: "I'm sure she will introduce precisely zero trouble into your life, bro."

Him (clueless to my point): "Yeah"

Holy shit I'm glad I'm not 20 anymore.
