Well shanoma you may not know how to make a good suggestion but at least you've got rolling with the punches down to an art.
Lots of experience, Wiz. Witty banter's saved my ass multiple times. For instance...
They had this thing called "Cracker Day" at the high school I went to in Florida. The black kids would gang up and beat up the white kids. As I'm white, I was naturally a target.
I was walking home and three massive black dudes walk up behind me. The biggest one says, "Hey cracker, why don't you gimme some money?"
So I grin and offer up, "Why don't you get a job?"
"How about we just beat your white ass?" quipped one of the three.
"Oh no, you don't want to do that. See, I've got honky-itis. If you touch me, you're going to wake up in the morning and be a cracker just like me!"
The three shook their head at me, jaws hanging slack and confusion scrawled out on their faces. Their "leader" finally said, "Boy, you crazy! Get outta here!"
Needless to say, none of the black kids at school wanted to get near me after that.
