Everyone looked at him as they do in backwoods local dives.
He told the bartender .
"A round for my friends".
"Okay so that's one beer for Jinks".
He slammed it down then turned and left without saying a word or leaving a tip.
He didn't want to stick around and make friends , when one was all he could afford to begin with.
Sometimes being the odd man out has its advantages .
Cheers .
