Thursday

A checker in dollar general …

First, I had to show my I’d to make my purchase … (am old) and laughed and said I only had to show my id for 2 things now … this and to vote ….

Then … (the shit starts without anything else said by me)

She tells me that her grandmother said we would never have a black president and she would be rolling in her grave …

I was taken aback as … wtf? A racist bitch is having the nerve to say this to a complete stranger!

I said, Obama was a much better president than what was currently in office ..

Then … she says … oh no .. TFG is getting all the criminal illegals out of the country … she has a friend in the Chicago DEA and … there is ISIS all over!

I responded with … you really need to get a brain … and started to leave …

She kept it up and all I could do was yell “fuck you, you stupid bitch” as I left
