I was standing in line at the license bureau one day many years ago, and a couple of inner-city types were discussing the large influx of Vietnamese refugees into their neighborhoods. One guy said there used to be lots of cats, dogs, and birds where he lived but they were all gone now because "the gooks done et up everthin' that walks, crawls, or flies where I live". Hard to keep a straight face.
