Real Fur

"I'm sorry," I say to the woman wearing the winter coat with the fur-lined hood. "Someone put something on your jacket, and I'm going to get it off, okay?"

I pull off the sticker and show her the thing, a bright yellow square with black, block letters declaring, "I'm an asshole - I wear FUR."

I apologize to her for someone doing something so rude and unnecessary, but she shakes her head, saying, "But it's not even real fur!"
