ShameSome people get off on the exhibitionism, but this was pure lust. I'm not proud, but I did once have sex on Portsmouth beach at 2am in the fog. I got a nasty cold, shingle _everywhere_ and have never, ever gone back to Portsmouth. The shame.
There are things you boast about, and then there's Portsmouth beach... what are you ashamed of having done?

I thought I was right at the timeI used to drive a cab and this is MY biggest shame
I pick up this guy and take him a short distance...the fare is only $2.05...he gives me $3 and I give him his 95 cents in change...half an hour later I get called to pick him up and take him home...$2.05...he gives me $3 and I give him 95 cents in change
Once again I get called to pick him up and to take him to the same place...$2.05...he gives me $3 and I give him 95 cents in change...now I'm getting pissed off...I can hear all my change jingling in his pocket and he keeps taking all my change...soon I'll have to go make a special trip to get more
An hour later I get called to get him yet again...$2.05...he gives me $3 and I hand him $1 bill back and tell him it's bad enough you aren't tipping but taking all my change is too much...this one time I'm eating the nickel take this dollar back and um...sit on it(I might of been more explicit)
BTW You have to understand this is one of the biggest pet peeves of a cabby...a fare who keeps taking all your change...some people do it to you as sport...sometimes it's 3am and you have to drive MILES to get more change
Five minutes later I get a call on my radio from my dispatcher asking what the hell did I do to that GIRL?(WTF!!! OH GOD NO!!!)...SHE called in crying saying I was mean to HER!
To make things worse(and yes they get way worse)...not only was she a young girl but she was mentally challenged...she was not trying to jerk me around with the change thing...she had been given a handfull of dollar bills and told to give the cabby three of them and he'd give you change...she had not the slightest idea how to make change
Wait it's even worse...the place I had been taking her to was a center where she could go to be with others like herself and socialize without people making fun of her or picking on her and now she was afraid to go anymore because the cabby might yell at her
I have never in my life felt more like shit than I did after he explained all this to me...years later I still feel badly about it
