-WTF is this?..
-It's kinda genetic therapy which makes your skin black. They said my Institute needed to comply with diversity quotas. As the founder, I had to serve an example...
-Man, but aren't you Asian?
-I told them the same, but the Diversity Police said there were too many of us on site... However, I chose to stick to my identity. But what's your story in the first place?
