  1. Why? Because dems da facts Benson! He was not going to show that apartment to a black, or Hispanic or an Asian. I’m pretty damn positive. So I’m at fault for calling him out on it? According to you I shouldn’t mention that he was Italian?

    Like I said before you’re the racist not me.

    Here it is for those who didn’t read the post:

    I know from code.

    I was looking to rent an apartment and the broker was going to show me one in a predominantly Italian neighborhood in Brooklyn and when the broker called to make an appointment with an owner for me to see his place he very much emphasized that, “You’ll like her she comes from a NICE family. No…I know…Her family is VERY NICE…like yours.”

    The dude clearly assumed I was Italian and he was clearly letting the owner know this. It was as subtle as a cinder block fall on your foot. I said to him, “So, how do you know my family?” I wanted him to know that I understood exactly what he was doing and was not amused.

  2. I won that award fair and square as…..AHEM!! Need I remind you people!! First recipient of the SOTD Award.

    I will make you a tiara, snappy. Hope you like tinfoil (I should even do that. You didn’t thank me and I was good for at least 15-20 pots)

  3. Bxgirl, you’ll be getting the lawsuit papers regarding said tiara very shortly – it’s mine!!! Oh, and thank you for helping reach my goal 🙂

    BRG, you are sooooo late to the party! But feel free to give me a congratulatory smooch 🙂
