Racist grandparentsIt Came From Planet Aylia says: "My husband's mad Auntie Joan accused the man seven doors down of stealing her milk as he was the first black neighbour she had. She doesn't even get her milk delivered." Tell us about casual racism from oldies.
Thanks to Brayn Dedd who suggested this too

People like to find humour in bad things. It makes them nicer.Hiding them away makes them worse. At least humour can turn bad things into not so bad things. Laughing at the stories here shows how we've moved on. Nobody agrees with them. It's marvelling at different times, the same way that people marvel at the medicines they used to have (cocaine for a kid's toothache, etc) where bad things were standard and now nobody gets it. At least not nice people anyway.
If there was no humour and everyone was just agreeing THAT would be a good time to complain.
