(Edited thread title to appease all the #&*$s in the audience.)
I went to the local 24-hr McDonalds for some late night food. I live in an urban area. The area immediately around me is pretty nice but the area around the McD's is a tad sketchy but still lots of students feel comfortable going in and around there. I've never felt unsafe going to the McDonalds there before.
Today I get my meal and sit down at a booth. I'm the only one sitting down. There are about a half dozen people at the counter ordering or waiting on their order.
As I'm sitting there I think to myself, "You know, it's 2 am in an urban McDonalds" and I thought to myself about the stories I'd heard of people shooting up fast food joints and 7-11s and gas stations and whatnot late at night.
JUST as I was thinking this I heard a BANG behind me (I was sitting with my back towards the entrance). And then I heard a guy yell, "THIS IS FOR ALL THE NIGGAZ IN THE HOUSE!!!!"
The bang (which was the door being kicked open) startled the FSCK out of me. And the verbal battle cry was also quite unnerving. Then I turn around and see a black dude with both his arms up in the air in front of him. He looked very threatening.
My heart skipped a beat. Did I foretell my own death? I had JUST been thinking about fast food places getting shot up. WTF!
The guy had his arms up in the air with his fists locked together side-by-side for a few moments.
Then he pulled them apart.
And unravelled a one dollar bill.
I rolled my eyes and turned around and, deflated, took a deap breath of relief.
I heard him yelling some more nonsense to everyone in the place. This lasted about five seconds. As he was babbling he made his way to the side exit and, as he was leaving, said "I LOVE YOU ALL! GOODNIGHT!"
I cannot WAIT to graduate and get the fsck out of this city....
