If I’m pushed, I’d also have to admit I don’t like people with allergies. They just annoy me.

Trying to be friendly, that’s all.
Stranger, if you passing meet me and desire to speak to me, why should you not speak to me? And why should I not speak to you?

Everyone says we have our first African American president. Has there ever been a Jewish president? An Italian president? They don’t say a damn thing about that. You think we’re still fighting the Civil War or something. If you want to mention it in passing, OK. But don’t dwell on it.
