| That letter reminds me of this utterly bat**** old woman my mum vaguely knew who she then foolishly invited for dinner and who then spent the whole dinner explaining that AIDS was an international conspiracy and all disease was caused by too much adrenaline, but not to tell anyone because then they'd kill me because I knew too much. She then told us this lengthily story about how she is not racist but she refused to ride in a lift alone with a black man in New York because he might rape her "even though he was dressed in a suit, wearing a tie and it was a very expensive building; you just never know".
One of those evenings that seemed like it might never end. |
