On the corner of SW Yamhill and Broadway, a young woman is trying to engage passersby.
Woman: Hi there! What are you doing today?
Older man: I'm trying to get back into college. What are you doing?
Woman: I'm just out here campaigning for gay rights.
Older man: Gay rights?! Nyaaagh! Get your own state!! Nyaaagh!
(He continued down the sidewalk, very agitated, periodically grunting "Nyaagh!")

Is it funny or soul-searching or incomplete
