"Why you hatin' on that bear? He didn't do nothin’ to you?"
I was walking in the skyways downtown MPLS yesterday when I passed an African-American woman and her little son. On the floor was a GIANT floor graphic of a cartoon bear advertising some upcoming event. The little boy yells out, "I'm gonna get you bear!" and starts to stomp all over the cartoon bear in a display of young male testosterone. Then the mother asks, "Son. Why you hatin' on that bear? He didn't do nothin’ (pronounced – nofin) to you?"
It was truly a random and wonderful moment and I burst into laughter on the spot.
