Overheard in DC

#1 - This morning while I was in line at the ATM, a woman jogging by begins to scream the following at a car that was stopped at the intersection:

"OSAMA!!! You're a TERRORIST!!! YOU!!! Yes, YOU! You're OSAMA!! TERRORIST!!"

I neither know what provoked the outburst, nor do I know why the 5 policeman that monitor that particular corner did absolutely nothing.

#2 - This evening I ordered in. I go down stairs to retrieve my delicious meal and the following exchange occurs:

Delivery Man: That was YOU on the phone?
Me: Yes.
Delivery Man: You answered the phone?
Me: Yes, yes it was me.
Delivery Man: You paid online so...er um...you're password was..um.
Me: Yes, it's all there and the tip too.
Delivery Man: Great. Did you go to law school?
Me: No. Why, do I look like someone you know.
Delivery Man: No. You just sound like...you sound like you went to law school.

Read: Black girl, you sound whiiiiiiiiiiiiite.
