Dark Comedy

A middle-aged African-American male named Leonard runs into his white friend Steve while out shopping.

Leonard: Hey, Steve!

Steve: Oh, hey, what's up, Leonard?

Leonard: Nothin, man, same old same old. So I'm throwing a costume party tonight. You should come.

Steve: Sure, man, will do.

Leonard: Don't forget to wear a costume!

That night...

Leonard's doorbell rings. Leonard opens the door to see someone in a KKK uniform standing on the doorstep.

Leonard: Hey, man, that shit ain't fucking funny. I take offense to this. What kind of a joke is this?

KKK: It's not a joke.
