Best friend's grandad fucked with him no end. Sent his 9-yo ass down to the store to ask for "N-word toes". To ask the black grocer. Kid had no idea it was a bad word, kinda like Archie Bunker: "That's what we called dem nuts in dose days!"

Another time they were watching some barn cats. "Want those kitties to really love you? Give 'em a bath and they'll love you forever." You can imagine.
