Lucky Moran: Did you hear NPR this morning?

Otis Redwing:  Nah.  That's why I have you.

Lucky: Biden's gonna have the youngest person ever to give a poem at the inauguration.

Otis: That's cool.

Lucky: Yeah ... except when they were interviewing her, I heard her mispronounce Harris's name. She said, "Ka-MAH-la" instead of "KOM-a-lah"

Otis: and ...

Lucky: Just wondering when when she's gonna be called out for micro-aggression.

Otis: Dude, don't be THAT guy.

Lucky:  Too late!  Already tweeting it!
