"That's good, might save your life someday. You see a lot of people wrapped up in their own little worlds, like they don't even realize there's anything outside their bubble." Which was especially true when it came to people like him. A lot of people liked to pretend the homeless weren't there, treated them like they were invisible, or worse yet garbage that needed to be cleaned up.
But he wasn't about to go on a rant about that sort of thing. Again, the habit of not thinking too hard on it kicked in to keep his mouth shut.
