| Ah, hello, I'll be right with you, but do you mind if I just nip out for a cigarette first? | |
 | |  |
|
 |
 | |  |
| Would it make any difference if I said I did mind? | |
 | |  |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
 | |  |
| Even if you do mind, you can't possibly say so! That's just not right! | |
 | |  |
|
 |
 | |  |
| So then why phrase it as a question? Why not just say that you're going out for a cigarette instead of asking me if I mind or not? | |
 | |  |

|
 | |  |
| To keep up the pretence that I actually care about what you think, of course | |
