For some reason this made me picture a white woman at the next table putting down her mayonnaise sandwich to raise the roof in unison with the other woman singing, all while wearing an overgrown snuggie and yelling " whoop whoop!" in a purposefully ironic sort of way.
She started singing this in reference to her husband having recently met with their financial advisor. She said - word for word - "I don't fuss over the details, I just need to know how many vacations I get to take this year." Then looked in her husband's face and started singing the Montell Jordan joint. My lunch date damn near choked on her pho.
Come on, Walt.
Good story tho.

This shyt is 100% actual factuals.
There was way more funkiness to the situation, from their discussions of financial planning, house-hunting, the etiquette of hosting large dinners, and the most rabidly racist woman at the table kept talking about "dope-slapping" football players and children. It was bizarre. Not to mention none of them seemed to have any clue as far as Vietnamese cuisine went. The loud, racist lady shooed away the sauces on the table and demanded salt and pepper for her noodle bowl. The waiter looked downright confused. Her husband had pho and openly mocked the lime, sprouts, and basil that came with it, wondering aloud if that was something the restaurant did to "be fancy." Nah dude, that's the traditional accoutrement, dunny.
The loud, racist lady also had this gem of a comment in response to the man at the table who wasn't her husband, when he said a new Asian fusion joint had opened in New Haven: "There's always a fusion Asian place opening
somewhere. A new Chinese-Japanese fusion restaurant opened near my sister's - talk about an oxymoron!" The other lady at the table cut her off and said "I'm sure the Japanese and Chinese would disagree." To which that tactless bytch responded "they can have their delusions. It's all the same."
The same bytch who was making the racist comments was raving about
Beasts of the Southern Wild and how is was so "magical" and "different" and everyone needed to see it.

My skin was crawling. I haven't encountered white people like this in person in a long fukking time. Oh, fukk, just remembered, they started talking about
Flight because they were all talking about movies they had seen recently, and the dude who made the "you can't have football without the ball and chain" comment raved about how brilliant Denzel was and how he gave a great performance but it didn't quite reach the level of his performance in
Malcolm X, which is one of his favorite movies ever.
When I asked them about CAC coffee shop I told them I though it stood for Coffee and Cream, which is when the one bytch was like "oh, I think that's the one around the corner, under the scaffolding."
These people ruined and made my day at the same time. They had some other comments about football, and Ray Lewis, and criminals, but they were pretty generic.
Anyway, yeah, I had to call my homie back home, and then Reb because shorty I was with was mostly confused by what went down (I had to explain CAC to her too, she's a sheltered ass black chick, and way too decent to know that sort of term) and I knew I needed a black man with a sense of humor and anger to enjoy the details of that shyt.
