So obviously all the decent, seat-giving people feared what might happen if someone climbed aboard at the first stop. Well sure enough, their fears manifested when someone got on. Being a generally kind sort, my friend decided to shift himself and offer up his seat to the new passenger, who just happened to be a dwarf.
But with that, the dwarf took great umbrage that he had been made an exception of, feeling he had gotten preferential treatment because of who he was, and so, he berated my friend for a good five minutes as the whole bus removed their earphones, laid down their newspapers, and intently listened, aghast at the venomous outburst. Eventually the storm abated and things got back to relative normality with my friend, somewhat taken aback, gloomily taking up residence on the floor. The bus rolled on, but now with a certain tension in the air. However the tension was soon to give way to cackles of laughter from all the passengers, well, all but one.
As the bus ground to a halt at the next stop, a little old lady collected her belongings and scuttled up towards the front of the bus. Along her way she passed the seated dwarf, and in a moment of extraordinary inspiration, crudely jibed; "I'm going to tell Snow White on you."
