So bow tie guy has lived there most of his life. Captain guy asks directions because he's clueless. Bow tie gives captain simplest and direct route. Captain guy says "That's not the way!" Bow tie thinks very briefly and tells the captain the most complicated and demanding route to the same location, which includes backtracking from whence he came 5 miles. Captain guy says "That sounds great". Happily the Captain goes 20 miles out of his way. Bow tie grins "Dummass".
:rofl:At no time in my service station experience did I ever wear a bow tie, so the above must be fiction:rofl:
