HOMELESS WOMAN: Spare some change?

MILLENIAL WOMAN: I’m so sorry, I going off a credit card.

HOMELESS WOMAN: I have square.

MILLENIAL WOMAN: Excuse me?

HOMELESS WOMAN: If you only have a credit card, I have square. You can pay me through square. There is a processing fee, though, so keep that in mind if you’re lying to me about the cash.

MILLENIAL WOMAN: Oh.
