When I was in college in NYC I was walking down Lafayette St. and passed by Mich@eL R@ppaport and some dude and MR was talking very loudly and animatedly and all I heard was blah blah blah herpes blah blah and he must have seen it register on my face because a couple seconds late he turned around and was like, "Hey! I was telling a story. It wasn't me, I don't have herpes!".

At the blood draw window"

OLD MAN: Excuse me, did they all go home for the day?

NURSE: Yeah, they get out of here around four.

OLD MAN: I just came by to offer an apology. I'll come back later.

NURSE: What, about the urine? Don't worry about it.

OLD MAN: I'll come back later.

eight months pass...

overheard while shopping on Thursday:

woman 1: "you're darker than anyone else"
woman 2: "I'll be a nigger before you know it"
woman 1: "shhh"

I didn't call her out for it, but I wonder if I should have — though it's problematic for a twenty-something white man to publicly accuse a fifty-something Latina woman of racism even when the accusation is completely justified.

^^ okay the Michael rapaport story slayed me

douchey egomaniac in theatre community goes on and on indirectly about his indignance about how his ex still had some of his stuff at her house and other ways she'd wronged him.

she was sitting like 20 feet away from him at the same table (this is a festival so the tables are very long and interconnected). what he was saying was clearly affecting her too.
