Fellow Gothamites: Why is it that the subway-candy-vendor meme typically goes something like this? 'Good morning/afternoon/evening, ladies and gentlemen; sorry to disturb you. I have candy for sale. No, I'm not selling for no basketball team, I'm selling this candy to stay out of trouble...'
In the first place, has anybody else been inundated by basketball-playing candy-pushers, such that it's a relief to be approached by someone else for a change? Secondly, am I the only one who finds the second qualifier slightly ominous? It's just a hair short of Robocop: 'Buy my candy or there will be ... trouble'.
