vancouverites and "ghettoness"

[Courtney]

I am so so so sick of this style...
i thought it was a teenage phase but apparently not...all these guys
21+ still rocking those stupid sticker hats and baggies jeans ever etc.
"yo homie"
"whats good"
"what you sayin"
"wuddup"
"one love"
etc. etc.

i'll admit i definetely say some stupid words too but more of a joke, but when you actually think about it...what the hell?!!!!

[project.one]

I say 'word' from time to time!

But Ive noticed my pants arent so big anymore :P

I always freak out people at work by walking up to them and rattling off some rap lyrics.

I don't do it to be hip-hop though, I do it because I'm a nerd.

[galaxie]

I have never, ever heard anyone say "what's good?" north of the border.

you are one of the lucky ones
and you live way closer to the border than me!
maybe its a "north" thing

[scue]

Hearing "what's good?" doesn't strike me as odd or irritable. To me, it's a little more pleasant than hearing "sup"

[fritz]

this whole thread is racist

You should sing those hip hop songs to a celtic beat.

People talking like idiots with no refrence to race isn't really racist. Hell, I'm pretty sure it's more common for white kids to say gangsta and hommie.

[rustybob]

This thread would be better with some random comments from that xzibit troll account. Half his posts have some stuff like that.

I like to use a mix of urban lingo and sayings that I steal from old people and old movies/tv.

also like to rock the 80s shit . "excellent" is a personal favourite.

[t-skywalker]

^^ "rad" or "neat" are also good ones. at work i use to say "fiddle sticks" instead of f@#k! =) old ppl seemed to like it, after all i got it from my nana lol

One of my favourite bits on the Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey DVD is Alex Winter and Keanu Reeves talking about the language of Bill and Ted.

"What if something's good?"
"Well, then it's excellent."
"What if it's really good?"
"Then it's most excellent."
"What if something's excellent?"
"Then it's outstanding!"
"What if it's really excellent?"
"Then it's... uh... Bodacious!"

I use any of those on a regular basis. Also Non-heinous.

Best line of Bogus Journey: "That was non-non-non-non-heinous!"
