Michael Scott Quote #29

Quote from Michael Scott in Diversity Day

Kevin: Basically, there are two types of black people and black people are actually more racist because they hate the other type of black people. See, every time the one type wants to have a good time, then the other type comes in and makes a real mess.
Michael Scott: Okay. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. He's ruin- He's butchering it. Could you just let me- [as Chris Rock] Every time- Every time black people want to have a good time, some idiot ass-[beep] I take care of my kid!
Mr. Brown: Wait a second.
Michael Scott: They always want credit for something they supposed to do! What you want, a cookie?

Quote from Dwight K. Schrute

Mr. Brown: Now, at the start of the session, I had you write down an incident that you found offensive in the workplace. I'm going to choose one and we'll act it out.

Dwight K. Schrute: Okay, can we steer away from gay people?
Mr. Brown: Um...
