A.D.: Since that challenge to an Official Fried Chicken Frying Contest, I've been thinking about some things. One has been, what would happen if, while preparing for the event, chicken stopped being sold. Can you imagine having to tell folks, “Sorry, no more fried chicken. Ever.”? We should write a book...about things like that. Things you would likely never hear a black person say...
Blake: I heard “No More Fried Chicken” once, but it was because it was all gone.
A: That is the prologue of the book...first paragraph, first line.

12. “It appears that there has been an oversight on your part and you’ve given me back too much change. So that your register isn’t off at the end of your workday, please take this back.”
13. “I know that my cellular phone service could be restored if I put the bill in my child’s name, but that would be extremely selfish. Not to mention, it would probably ruin my child’s credit and most likely take him multiple years to clear up.”

15. “I actually do have a genuine love for these women of ill repute.”
16. “Thanks for the offer sir, but the content on that DVD is most certainly pirated. I know this because that particular movie is still in theaters.

26. “You may refer to me as a bitch, but whatever you do, don’t ever refer to me as a ‘bad bitch.’ That’s just disrespectful.”
27. I refuse to wear someone else's hair on my head, the hair that God gave me will suffice.
