Racist grandparents
It 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

A casual bit of racism at Easter - just what Jebus would have wanted.
One Easter we had to do the big family dinner. Gather up all the old people and sit them down for dinner, await our Easter eggs and crazy crap that was bestowed on us.
Dinner went well, with the usual discussions of what Barbara down the road had been up to - "You remember Barbara!?!" and we thought that another dinner had past quite well. That was until the TV went on.
The oldies argued over what to watch, until it was finally decided that Britain’s Got Talent was the most family friendly and interesting for all. Settling down to watch the horrific renditions of "My Heart Will Go On" and dancing dogs, we were all pleasantly surprised when a very good dancing group appeared on our TV box.
The group danced, crowd went wild and the front room all agreed that they were very good and should go through. Thinking that this day was going to end on a high note, my Nan said "They are very good dancers, especially the little one" to which my Granddad’s girlfriend piped up "Well their kind usually can dance". Stunned silence. The group that we'd just been watching was Diversity.

What kind?
Professionally trained dancers? Yeah, I reckon they can.
