Scene: Me and another person are casually standing around in some generic outdoor setting....

Casual Bystander: "What's that on your shoulder?"

Me: "A backpack." I casually answer.

Casual Bystander (indifferently): "Oh."



Alternate ending to that riveting scene

Casual Bystander (indifferently): "What's in it?"

Me (indifferently): "My stuff."
