Prejudice
"Are you prejudiced?" asks StapMyVitals. Have you been a victim of prejudice? Are you a columnist for a popular daily newspaper? Don't bang on about how you never judge people on first impressions - no-one will believe you.

Ungrateful Bastards
Some years ago I was out drinking with a couple of friends and someone they knew. At chucking out time the “someone they knew” suggested we head off to a nearby pub that was good for a late drink. It was a bit rough but her boyfriend was there and we were assured it would be OK. So off we popped to Brixton.
Well it wasn’t OK.
Two of us where the only white blokes in there, and we were clearly not welcome. It took me 3.5 seconds to see the score and turn round and leave. My mate, let’s call him Dick, was a bit more bombastic, and with a “I’m not giving into this shit” started to force his way to the crowded bar.
I waited for about a minute outside before Dick emerged through the doors a bit battered and bloodied. As I walked and he hobbled away from the pub he exclaimed in the most indignant voice ever produced by a white middle class man “Don’t those people realise that I was head of the free Mandela society at Uni”
“No Dick they probably don’t , why don’t you go back and tell them” I replied.
But he didn’t
