Southern Discomfort
from tonguetied.us, as usual...
A Chicago man who claimed he was racially harassed because he found a half-eaten chicken wing in his pot roast dinner at Denny’s has had his case thrown out by an Illinois appeals court, reports the Chicago Sun-Times.
Nathaniel Washington, who said white workers put the chicken wing on his plate as a joke, was initially awarded $68,000 in damages but the verdict has been overturned. The Latino cook who made Washington's food and the Indian waitress who served him said there was no malicious plot involved.
Washington admitted he'd eaten about half his food before noticing the chicken wing and "assumed" someone else had bitten it. But the stress he felt from the incident was strong enough, he said, that he started fighting with his wife, losing sleep and drinking half a pint of liquor a day.
**end**
I just hate it when I go out to eat and a bunch of _________ racists put half eaten boiled possum in my plate. Makes me feel like they're dissin' my heritage. Last time it happened I had to beat my ol' lady all week, stayed up half the night, kicked m'hound dawg right in th' ribs, and started drinkin' again.
What bullshit. Glad he got kicked off the take.
Does Denny's even serve chicken wings?
