epic night in the hood.


no doubt what they're saying is pretty dumb, but they're 15yo girls!

To some people $200 is a lot of money. She obviously really likes her air jordans and i bet there are a lot of people who like them more than your lanvins.

The whole post just reeks of condescension. Also no need to mock people for the way they speak.

This exactly. Sq you seem like an alright guy but I don't know why you thought we'd like you more after reading a hundred words of you trash-talking poor people. Also how is it their fault for not speaking to you in Standard Written English, especially when you can't use it to produce an entertaining story. I mean come on guy, you had all that material and you didn't do anything with it. Try harder. Write better.

however hard it may be to believe, i didn't post that story with the aspiration of people on SF liking me more. it wasn't even written to make anyone laugh. it was a narration of events, pretty accurate to what happened. "how is it their fault that they don't speak in an intelligible way?" who else's fault would that be exactly? and when did I say they were poor? the fat bish was wearing burberry london and the one ghetto bish was wearing 200$ air jordans. magician can testify that all three bishes started harassing us out of the blue. we were actually quite cordial given the situation.

I mean, I'm a huge dick about proper written English, but spoken, colloquial English is derived from a person's direct surroundings. If everyone else around those "fat bishes" spoke ebonics, the "fat bishes" are going to speak ebonics, too. You can criticize their fashion and their attitudes towards you, but it becomes condescending when you insult them for their upbringing (which, if anything, was not by choice).

the ghetto bishes weren't fat; they were just chubby. the fat bish was perfectly understandable.

American chubby is fat by world standards.

tell me about it. i tell a story exactly as it happened in real life and where neither of us even insult the bishes and somehow people get all

sadly, its not MS paint worthy. the girls just went on and on about me and magician and if we "go together." the only thing amusing about it was watching the self-deprecating bishes p0wn themselves. the rest was pretty sad.

You guys are missing the context.

We were leaving this bar pretty late and we only shared bottle service with these 2 girls (these other 2 didn't even ******* show up - but cant let the goose go to waste) so we were pretty drunk and one of the girls had splashed champagne on his Lanvin leather and my Prorsum blazer. And then Sq4you's car service didn't pick up so we had to take the ******* bus.
