Peeing in the Karma Pool

An actual conversation I had with an older busker friend of mine, near the corner of Queen and Spadina:

Scrawny-looking panhandling kid: Can either of you spare a buck so I can get a hot dog?

My busker friend: Fuck no!

Me: Here. (Hands over a loonie.)

The kid walks off and buys a hot dog from the nearby stand.

My busker friend: I guess I should’ve given him some money. I am, after all, a Tibetan Buddhist.
