Home A Neighborhood Columbia Heights “I just ignored them.”

“I just ignored them.”

May 24, 2012 | Posted by User Submission |

I got out of my car and noticed a two men in a beatup pickup truck with apples in the back talking really loud. I grabbed my groceries and started walking towards 16th. The next thing I hear is “Holy shit it’s a dude. Are you a dude? Hey mister are you a guy or girl.” Other shit was “I think that’s a dude” and “It looks like a guy but I can’t tell”. The driver and the passenger both kept hollering shit like that until they pulled away. I just ignored them. Not worth my efforts to acknowledge them.
