You should tell more of your stories. I really enjoyed these. Especially the one about the racist dog. I have known a racist dog myself, and it came from a family who was decidedly not racist. It's got to be the worst thing, right? I mean, as the non-racist owner of a racist dog, what do you do when you're out walking your dog and it suddenly detects an individual of its perceived inferior race?
Do you say "Sorry, my dog is racist." No. That would acknowledge the minority status of the other person, which is rude, and generally considered racist in and of itself.
Do you do nothing? Say nothing? Well... that might be worse. They may just assume you're a racist, right? I mean, the dog was fine until now, until a brown person showed up. A brown person who, because they're brown, probably has a very finely tuned racism radar. Dogs aren't just racist by themselves. They have to learn it from someone, right? No! This family were not the secret KKK! They were very open and accepting of all races, creeds, species, whatever.
Their dog was just a racist piece of shit for some reason!
My stories do end up trickling in from time to time and I'll most certainly be telling more.
I like this satirical bit you just wrote. It highlights how confused people can be in today's world. As for how to handle a racist pet... I dunno! Laughing seems to work just fine.
