If there’s one Twitter account you need to follow it’s that of Metta World Peace. Every once in awhile Metta dives into a story that at first seems unbelievable—until you realize he’s Metta World Peace and he once worked at Circuit City (while he was making millions) for a discount.
Anyway, Metta’s latest story involves a deli owner and some discrimination. Or at least that’s what I gathered after reading it 50 or so times.
I was just at the deli in LA. You Wil not believe what happened.
