Depeche a la Mode

The guy at the door had the smile of a salesman and the kind of shoes only a time traveler would wear.

"So, you're a time travelling salesman?" I asked when I opened the door.

"Uh, yes," he said sheepishly, "Is it that obvious?"

I pointed at his shoes.

"What? The shoes? I like these shoes."

"Of course you do," I said, "You're a time traveler."

"No! I mean, yes, I am, but that's not why I like these shoes."

I cleared my throat. "Uh, were you going to try to sell me something?"

He sighed, "Yeah, but now I lost my rhythm. I'll come back tomorrow."
