In both the cooking biz and the car biz I know of a lovely response to that.

Shut up. Shut up this instant.

OMG yes! There was this couple that took to lurking at a bar in Nashville where I worked. One of the waitresses and our barback were dating. They were both very good-looking (she was a former model).

great. Even my nipples retracted at that thought.

I can hear them now: "Now that man, he was so articulate!".

I don't know any prominent white allies right now that I can recommend to you. I mean there's Tim Wise but he's got his issues too with dismissing POC voices. Like I said, if you want to be a good ally, it's best that you listen to what POC have to say and not be dismissive. Don't brag about being not racist because…

We also need green allies named Benjamin.

"Nice diction"?

Didn't someone once say that he who is wisest is him who admits he knows nothing? I've found, equally paradoxically, that, as a white person, I may contribute less to the system of racism the more I recognize just how racist I truly am.

C'mon satanists. You're better than this. Never play second banana to those spaghetti monster idiots.

You forgot to mention that you were wearing Dior at the time.

Awesome. I have great memories of that place. I haven't been back to the Stick in years but went to the Majestic two years ago for food during Dlectricity. Their mozzarella sticks are giant and strange.

WHAT IN THE LITERAL FUCK????

I am going to add "ladies of negotiable affection" to my working vocabulary and use it as often as possible.

"Ladies of Negotiable Affection." With monogrammed thermoses, saved (and waived!) bread, and "And eat all of your bread!" BCO is just filled with quotable quotes!

I LOVE sexy tongues!!!!

I think it's racist to call this guy a hipster. He's clearly a drug-abusing homeless man who happens to be white. He probably got kicked out of the Trumbullplex.

I'm a psychopath. Or maybe a sociopath; I've never understood the differences all that well, and it's not like I've had an actual diagnosis apart from that one mention in my FBI file. Maybe I'm just dissociative with comorbid schizophrenia and paraphilias. Whatever. I'm damaged.
