Oh, shit and here we go! Girl I wrote about this! I have actually had people say this to me when they find out I'm biracial. It's like people think I'm over here speaking in Ebonics or some crap. Or some slang, "what, what, yo mamma fo shizzle garbage"

Back in the day, my aunt Myrtle, now deceased, but an educated and refined woman who was married to an educated Church Deacon, arranged to rent an apartment in Winnipeg over the phone, as was the custom in the day. Everything was arranged and they were to move in and pay upon arrival.

Then they arrived. And the apartment was "rented." Ain't that funny? Auntie confronted the woman and she stammered about her being so articulate but something just "came up". Still didn't get the apartment. And I didn't know a command of English was a requirement, but there you go. So they did what they had to do until they were able to buy a place.
