True story...

I went into work one Saturday morning. Tried the back entrance but the card reader was down. Tried several times but it wouldn't let me in. So I went around front.

About 45 mins later three of my (black) coworkers showed up and complained the back door wasn't working. They said the same thing as I did...that they tried several times but the door wouldn't open.

I kid you not...10 mins later, the cops showed up and said there was a report of three people trying to break into the building.

So the other building tenants IGNORED me, but called the cops on three black folks...doing the same thing as me.

Were you 45 minutes early?

Wait...did a joke just go over my head?

What would ever give you that idea?

lulz, I've been trying to troll Rabbit in honour of the forum. But he's not falling for it 😢

Awesome, isn't it?
And all the free beer and pizza you could ever want.
