You walk into this shop that looks official (you can't read the sign,
because it is also in greek), and begin explaining to the shopkeeper
(who looks somehow familiar...) what you have, and how much it is
worth. You say that since you are so generous, you are going to sell
it to him for only a million dollars. During this entire dialogue,
the man has been chuckling quietly. Now he bursts into a
full-fledged, hearty, laugh. What is going on
here?
