Where does the conversation take place? [br] [originaltext]M: Hi, Linda.W: Hi,

M: Hi, Linda.
W: Hi, James. What am you doing in the mall? I thought you said you avoid these places and here you arc.
M: Oh, I still do but it’s my roommate’s birthday tomorrow and I am looking to get him a present. He’s not exactly the easiest person to find a present for.
W: Have you any idea what to get?
M: Not really. I want to get him something he will be able to use instead of something he’ll just shove into the closet.
W: That’s true. I know half the time I get something from somebody I hardly ever use it. And they stay in the closet or garage before they get thrown away.
M: I know, I know. That’s the problem. That’s why I hate buying gifts for somebody because it can never be perfect. So, I am heading over to the clothing store right now.
W: Perhaps you are trying too hard to get something very impressive or decorative. I always think a gift should be practical. I know what, why don’t you think of something he might like or something that he will most likely get soon?
M: Oh, I know. His knapsack is almost wrecked and the zipper has almost had it. Maybe I should get him a knapsack instead.
W: There you go. It sounds like a perfect gift.
M: Gosh, now I am wondering which color I should pick. He is really picky about the color.
W: That’s not difficult. What was the last color he chose? He obviously chose it for a reason.
