Someone once wrote to me, "Why don't you go back to whatever shit hole country you came from?"
I replied, "Thanks for my daily dose of racism this morning."
And he wrote back, "Of course you would play the race card!"

I brag about my 5-year-old being smart. But he still hasn't mastered checkers, which he mistakenly calls "chess."
