Would You Take the Ring?
One day, back in 2003, I was walking down the street and passed a group of young men in a heated argument. All I could hear was yelling and then one of them stopped me. “Ayo! Ayo! Ayo, look, would you take the ring?” The ring? I thought. “What ring?” I asked, thinking how adorable it was that a group of dudes were arguing about a ring. “If your husband cheated on you and bought you a ring like Kobe, would you take it?” I thought about it. “How much is the ring worth?” “Four million dollars.” “Yes. No! I mean NO WAY. Too many variables. I mean, probably? I dunno, ah! Sorry I can’t help you, bye!” They laughed, thanked me for nothing, and continued arguing. Would you take the ring? How about the car?
