|Impromptu Racism|

I am approaching the door of J. Crew. As I near, I see scores and scores of mannequins clothed in all manner of prints and fabrics and styles with a common chromatic theme: yellow.

I see that they are all facing the store's entrance. Lined up, wave after wave, as if ready to commence their lemony retail military maneuvers at any time.

I pull open the right double door and, walking through, I say quite audibly to my shopping companion, "I feel as though I'm being attacked by a horde of yellow women!"

And as I am walking through the doors, passing just a baby's breath away from me through the left double door is a woman of Asian decent.
