Official Member of the Offensive Receipt Club


This incident took place over the summer and I shared it with my friends, but I thought I'd bring it back and post it properly here.

Place of Offense: The Hen House (Boston, MA)
Date of Offense: Aug 18, 2012

I wish I'd noticed the details while my Chicken/Waffle Mate and I were at the restaurant, but it wasn't until a few days later when I dug it out of my pocket and looked more closely at it that I did a double-take.

"Is that..?! No...oh shiyat, no they didn't -- oh yes, they did."

What annoyed me the most were three things:
  1. My Chicken/Waffle Mate and I were the only Asian patrons in a restaurant with only three other diners. This was around midnight. So, ID-ing us was not at all necessary. We weren't that hard to miss. 
  2. You'd hope that fellow people of color would know better. But, obviously not.
  3. The chicken and waffle sucked.
But this is indeed proof of official membership into the Offensive Receipt Club.

I'm totally in.
