I hate YOU
Last week, I was walking down the street and some crazy looking black dude called to me as I passed him, “I HATE white people.”
I try not to engage with the crazies, so I did not respond, but I was pretty psyched by the comment. Having once been called a “white bitch” [very true] by a co-worker, I wasn’t really fazed. My thoughts were:
1)Well I hate everyone, so I win!
2)Sucks to be you!
3)This doesn’t count as a thought because I couldn’t stop giggling. Good thing I was alone, because if I had had company, that would have been the end. I would have been hysterical.
I can’t wait until the heat comes and I get to see some really good fights/entertainment on the subway. My favorite fights are of the get-the-fuck-out of-my-way-rude-bitch variety.
It’s better, cheaper and faster than going to the movies.

Ha ha – I love your tales of the city. I get to see crazy people walk past my window at work. I hear them shouting or mumbling or arguing before I can see them so I’m on alert. Makes me believe I’m not in a tiny college town. For a second.

AJ and I ran into someone with Tourette’s at the supermarket a couple of days ago. He was totally freaked out. I forget he isn’t used to seeing things like that on a daily basis.

Poor AJ–that’s tough on a kid.

Ha! Summer in the city…always good for street fights, stinky public trans rides and of course, the increased homicide rates.

I have a shirt that says, “I don’t discriminate, I hate ALL people”. It’s one of my favorite ones, I might add.
Looking forward to your get-the-fuck-out of-my-way-rude-bitch stories.

My first apartment in Upstate New Yawk was in a seedy neighborhood and one day I was driving up my street and an African American guy was walking in the middle of the street. I slowed way down and then gently started to drive around him. He turned around and started screaming Motha-f*cka and beating on the hood of my car. Yeah! Fun! I guess you realize I skipped turning into my driveway and kept driving since I didn’t want Angry Guy to see where I lived.

Also, the only correct answer to that guy’s “I hate white people” comment would have been to say, “Me, too!”.

That’s both funny and sad. It cuts down on this guy’s social circle, that’s for sure.
