Why are you "ghetto?"

[xXErraticEmilyXx]

Do you grill sandwiches with a clothes iron?
Is your boombox taped onto your dash?
Do you use a coolwhip tub as a jello mold?

[xXErraticEmilyXx]

No, but I have acid reflux, hashimoto's, fibromyalgia, ibs, and a craving for pizza D:

I think the title would have better been "Why are you redneck?"

If you lived on the Rez you'd personally see how "ghetto" things are here.

I don't blame the people that act ghetto, I blame the moneymakers in the music industry for subverting the culture. Most black people, in the US at least, don't run out and buy 15+ dollar CD's of people rapping about money and drugs. But who does? 13-35 y/o white males. The power structure as a whole is scared to death of young white males, especially in packs. Anything to subvert their attention from the goings on around them. Yes, go and sell your weed and think about platinum rims, don't worry that the country is going to ........ And once they get popped and sent off to jail, the rest of their life has basically .........as supporting a family or being taken seriously about anything. Especially with facebook running around, even if the person is going through a phase in high school, that person running for president would be in the pocket of whomever had access to pictures of them with pants on the ground and grilles in their mouth. Genius really.

That's not ghetto, that's genius!

I guess I took this post the wrong way. Where I am from we call that redneck or jimmy rigging.

 

[zeroturbulence]

I think it should really be called "You might be ghetto if..."

You didn't describe anything 'ghetto,' really.

You just described dorm life.

ghetto
Noun

1. A part of a city, esp. a slum area, occupied by a minority group or groups.

I know that the word ghetto probably brings bad memories to some people and I stopped using it unless I was truely referring to a real ghetto.

The reason I am red-neck....

My front bumper fell off after the bolts rattled loose from too much hill hopping... So instead of using another bolt and nut which I had in stock I went through 3 rolls of duck tape... It actually took longer to put the duck tape on then it would be to bolt it back on... But I already had duck tape in my hand and didn't want to take the time to walk into the shop and grab a bolt... After the duck tape fell off I used bailing wire...

True story...

 

[xXErraticEmilyXx]

So that's why people go stealing shopping carts.

The struggle is real.
