I am a transplant from Kansas but I was in 3rd grade in very early 80s. Fairmont Heights was my HS. I know lots of people from DC and the dmv. Like all my friends. Any friends not from DC are my wife’s friends.

Funny story time. One time I was driving home from work. Was on whatever street runs thru sursum corda waiting to make the left on north Capitol. Lights green, traffic flows. Dude on the outside lane just meanders over into my lane on the inside so I beep. He moves back but we’re right next to each other in gridlock.

He says “see that’s what’s wrong with the city, people like you comin in here and fuckin it up”. I’m white, he’s black. I’m obviously older than he was so I said “man I been here since before you were born and what you mean by ‘people like you’?” You can see the gears turning in his head and he just yells out “ITALIANS!!!”

Man I died laughin, that shit was hilarious.
