Straighten-your-back-man is talking toban old man

1. Straighten-your-back-man:
-... Is it even worth it to learn?
2. Straighten-your-back-man:
Like... I decided to do the whole Straighten-your-back-man thing, because it seemed like the most straightforward good deed I could do. Even though there's probably more effective ways of bringing good to the world, they all seem to have asterisks and pitfalls. But... I guess my thing does as well. So is it even worth all the effort?
3. Old man:
-HA-HA-HA!
4. Old man:
-That's for you to decide. But before you do, let me tell you one thing.
