Years ago Tree was working at a restaurant when he noticed a coworker acting strange. He walked toward the coworker, who was near the main entrance, to find a man holding a bag. “May I help you?” Tree asked. “Feel the bag,” the man replied. “I’m sorry, what?” Tree asked. “Feel the bag,” the man repeated. Tree reached toward the man, felt the bag and said, “OK, I touched your bag. Now what?” Frustrated, the man left.
It was at this point that Tree learned the man was actually a criminal, guilty of two crimes: attempted robbery and poor annunciation.
This ‘altercation’ got a lot of attention – even Jay Leno mentioned it. “Look, I can’t help someone who doesn’t annunciate their words,” Tree told Live Longer, Awkward and I as he shared the story. He makes a good point. If the alleged thief doesn’t clean up his act and grammar soon he will most likely end up in gel. Or is it jail?
