Overheard at IKEA yesterday:
"Dude, what if you had a . . .um . . . slave, and you wanted to pass it off on Craigslist.com so that, like, people wouldn't know you had one."
"If I had a slave and I wanted to get rid of him, I would free him."
"Oh. But . . .what if you wanted to be nonchalant about it and be like, 'A used DVD player, and you can make an offer on the XboX, oh and this is Tyrone . . .'"
"Why does your slave have to be black?"
"Ok, so here's the DVD, and here's the XboX, Oh, and this is Alan."
"Alan. That's a nice name. If you are a slave, your master should free you."
[ p.s. we moved! ]

entertaining, but very weird, conversation. And congratulations!
I think you should have interjected. Something like "Hey, my name is Alon and I'm a slave. Don't talk about my profession that way..." Or, you know, not.
