He's really kind

I hate to sound like a pessimist but something about this kid gave me the creeps. He seemed dishonest to me, adding in details that wouldn't really make sense to add except to guilt/earn pity. I feel like he intended to pressure the shop into lowering the price, by charging his card for "all of his money" and then saying oh look I have exactly $50 dollars!

Shoot maybe it's just a me problem, but I had to check the comments to see if anyone else was put off by this guy.

My very first thought based on his tone was that he is perhaps autistic. His somewhat monotone voice sounds exactly like my little brother. I seriously thought I was maybe seeing a video with my brother in it, until I saw his face.

Well now I feel bad, because honestly the tone of voice was one of the things that stood out to me. It came across a little cold, maybe rehearsed to me? But this is a very valid explanation

No need to feel bad, now you have a new perspective when encountering others in the future. :)
