Office, South Side.
Co-workers discussing appropriate attire with the manager:
Co-Worker #1: Well, I’m wearing a skort, so it doesn’t matter to me. [lifts the front of her skort to reveal shorts underneath.]

Penn Circle West, Easy Liberty.
Three white guys dressed for the office in shirts someone else picked out for them are walking back to work after having lunch at Whole Foods. A black man in a sweaty, over-sized t-shirt rounds the corner and sees them:
Black Guy: Hey, wait up, can any of you spare five bucks?
Tall White Guy: [showing off for friends] Get a job!
[The three white guys elbow each other and laugh.]
Black Guy: What? You think you’re big? Come over here and we’ll talk about it!
[Tall white guy turns and beats his chest with slightly more subtelty than a silverback gorilla.]
Black Guy: Fuck you! You white dudes think you know everything! Come over here and show me what you got!
[White guys continue to walk, but tall white guy again does the provocative chest-beating.]
Black Guy: Yeah, that’s what I thought. Assholes.
[Black guy continues to mutter to himself angrily as he walks down Center.]
