I Love Them
Very Old Black Woman #1: And you know, you know what they did? They took my apple juice. They wouldn’t let me take my apple juice.
Very Old Black Woman #2: They let me take my booze, because I’m diabetic.
Very Old Black Woman #1: They took my apple juice.
Very Old Black Woman #2: You gotta tell ‘em you’re diabetic. They let me keep my booze, you gotta tell ‘em.
Very Old Black Woman #1: I told them I was diabetic! They took it. It had a little, a little straw coming out. (To gate attendant) Did you know they took my apple juice? It had a straw.
Gate Attendant (who has been listening to the exchange): I will go right now and buy you a bottle of apple juice.
Very Old Black Woman #2 (to gate attendant): She’s diabetic.
(A few minutes later)
Gate Attendant: They didn’t have apple juice, is cranberry juice okay?
Very Old Black Woman #1: Did you really go get that?
Very Old Black Woman #2: Did he really get it?
Very Old Black Woman #1: Well, he’s my friend. Course he did.
Very Old Black Woman #2: Ohhh my goodness. You GIRL. You still got it.
