Don't Be Afraid of Socialists



I had been visiting the Hilton (5 stars!) Sky View Bar and I was taking the elevator down to leave.  There was a nicely dressed man with a Socialist International badge/name tag next to me.

me:  Is there a convention in the hotel?
guy:  Yes, a meeting of the Socialist International.  Don't be afraid.
me:  I'm American.  I have to be afraid.
guy:  No, those old cliches are done.  Even the FBI is here.
me:  To check you guys out?
guy:  No, to discuss security issues…
me:  It's okay.  I was just playing.  Have fun.
