After that, one of the blondes in the cab was getting worried that he might not stick to his words but the other was quite confident. Then when they reached the train station in Ouagadougou, they passed the guy a 2000-note and asked for change but the guy refused to give it to them. And he WAS smiling after they gave in to his "scheme".

One more to add to the list of asshole taxi drivers...
The one that scammed Shana & Jennifer of their money at Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso. They agreed on a price before they got in but then the guy later insisted on them paying like twice the amount after that and both of them had no choice but to comply while the bastard was smiling and grinning greedily.
Granted, when you say shit like "We're going to be sold today.", then I feel a little less bad. Not nearly as bad as the breeding speech, but still Ugly American-ish.
