(Humor) Uncomfortable sincerity. + Sinceridad incómoda. [Eng+Spa]

In a future city, a man enters a store to buy:

— Do you give me a soda?
— Yes, here you have. It costs 8 credits.
— Here is 10.
— Can I give you your change in mint gum?
— Don't you have the 2 credits to give me the change?
— Yes, I have them, but I recommend the mints for the smell of the breath that you loose.

En una ciudad futura, un señor entra a una tienda a comprar:

— ¿Me das una Gaseosa?
— Sí, aquí tiene. Cuesta 8 créditos.
— Aquí tiene 10.
— ¿Te puedo dar tu cambio en chicles de menta?
— ¿No tiene los 2 créditos para darme el cambio?
— Sí, los tengo, pero te recomiendo las mentas por el aliento que cargas.

The seller seems to care about his buyer so much, he wants him to buy the mint gum too, so that it can smells good.

I think so too, but saying something so awkward so directly might not be a good idea.

And that's why I titled the Post 😅
