I thought the business man was going to stop the Fly Whisperer so he could give him the change. Idk how I feel about it pulling out and cutting to black. I kinda wanted to see that he learned his lesson. I guess no one learns it overnight right idk

Absolutely. Some would say “but to have an idea about someone start by having a look at them” and that could be highly fooling, really. I met a man with earrings and huge tattoos and liked heavy metal anybody would think he’s bad news but guess what.. turned out he is the most modest, honest and kindest person I ever known. He worked as a craftsman. So he liked what he liked and did for a living what he made and both had nothing to do with his principles. Principles are our true identities.

Religion (and the rest room) is where dangerous robbers often hide in disguise. Rich guys can be robbers and often end up poor. Poor guys are often well intended. The police often informs, seldom works. Waiters often have something else to do.

Maybe the old lady has robbed some bad guys to use the money for a good cause. She'd worn a mask of a "typical" criminal to fool everyone, but in reality she's a kind and generous soul. She has given some money to the homeless man after all 😊

[@echognomecal6742]

SO there's a guy cleaning up the area & begging for money who pays the check of the guy obviously having a tough day. There's a (fake?) nun who's wanted bc she disguises herself as a stereotypical crook, so the blame is put elsewhere, & commits crimes. (aka most organized religion) There's the coffee drinker who forgot his wallet & somehow has no way to say, "I have forgotten or lost my wallet. Is there a way I can call my ____ to help or do you have another suggestion?" & chooses instead to steal from a little old lady. There's a waiter doing their job & not otherwise involved in things until they can ID a wanted criminal. There's a bumbling, unobservant cop. These are all expected in my little part of the universe except for the guy with the supernatural bladder who doesn't speak up or run out.

Dude, the “Oscars”, being Oscar-nominated, means absolutely nothing. Thanks to the people involved in the Oscar’s. They’ve discredited it for quite some time. And it’s getting worse, totally irrelevant.

[@MariselaR.da1daOnly]

The "Oscar" part is irrelevant because the short film was very good, the storyline awesome, and cool animation. The title proves that many people will still click because they still believe in the "Oscar" as credible. The part that made me click was "never trust people and their appearance." So tomatoe/tomatow! Lol
