I can’t wait to find my nino quincampoix
So my mom is shopping in a supermarket, wearing a full hijab and jilbab (commonly misnamed as a burka) and the whole time she is there, this kid is staring at her. Won’t stop staring. Just looking with wide-eyed shock. The lil feller isn’t any older than four. She doesn’t think much of it, she is used to far worse than just a few stares. Until the very end when the kid and his mom are behind her in the checkout, and he leans up and whispers loudly: “I LOVE YOU BATMAN”
This is so pure and adorable
Oh the memories. I sorta did this when I was a kid, I was like 5 my mom was picking me up from kindergarten. There was a Muslim boy in my school, so his mother picked him up wearing the hijab and the jilbab, I saw her and I was amazed. Not because she was Muslim. No I deadass thought this lady was a ninja. So I continued to frantically tap my mother and pointed and said “mommy it’s a ninja!” The lady over heard me, my mom tried to quite me, until this lady did an actual ninja pose. I flipped my shit that day in kindergarten.
Si alguna vez me suicido, será en domingo. Es el día más desalentador, el más insulso.
