He’ll Grow Up To Be A Fine Customer (From Hell) One Day
(I’m helping visitors touch some of the animals on exhibit. One of the boys in the crowd is getting too rowdy with the snake I have out.)

Boy: “Why?”
Me: “You’re being a little too rough with the animal. You can come back later, though.”
Boy: “YOU ARE BEING RACIST!”
Me: “Um… how?”
Boy: “It’s because I’m black!”
(Note: I’m white, and so is the boy.)
Me: “Um, you’re white.”
Boy: “Oh, so now you’re being a reverse racist!” *storms away*
