At the 125th St. Lane Bryant.
Saleswoman: Have you been to Lane Bryant before? We've got a great sale on.
Moi: Nope.
Saleswoman: Why not? We have a ton of cute stuff in stock.
Moi: Because I wasn't fat before.
Saleswoman: Snort. Cackle. Guffaw. (Makes an aside to another Saleswoman). Ooh girl, I know she didn't just say 'I wasn't fat before.' No she didn't!
(Aside: This is not some stupid honky interpretation of the way I believe African Americans speak, nor is it an attempt to mimic the authentic voices found in the masterpiece "Medea's Family Reunion." This is actually what she said.)
