Garbage People*

I don't know why I keep being surprised that there are so many horrible people. Against better judgment I followed a facebook argument between a friend and a notfriend, which at some point involved the notfriend daring my friend, who had lived in Philly for 20 years, to "stand on a corner in Philly," the implication being that roving bands of young black men would instantly tear him to shreds like movie piranhas if he did so.


*not to be confused with people tasked with taking away my garbage, who generally do a pretty good job.
