setting: grocery store line.
a middle aged white woman is at one register paying for groceries, wearing a red hawaiian print shirt. a 20 something black dude is standing at the other register wearing a red shirt with hawaiian-ish print shorts.
black dude walks out.
cashier smiles. "you guys kind of match."
middle aged woman says: "oh no, i should go change."
cashier: "no it looks cute"
middle aged woman: "i just don't want anyone to think i'm involved in the bloods and the crips or something!"
me: "uh, i think the hawaiian print would throw them off."
