YOU KNO U IN THA GHETTO WEN...

12 guys you don't know race to your car to ask you what you need.
*****~~~*****
Theres a fire hydrant open and about 50 kids in it.

Foodstamps are advertised on the store windows as accepted currency.

My baby mama/daddy is commonly used in conversations with 16 year olds.

1 dollar gypsy buses run better than public transit.
Cheap cigars are right on the store counter next to the 25 cent candy.

You ask for loosies and get em for 50 cents each.

There is always a mattress in an empty lot for some reason with kids doin back semis on it.

You leave the gorcery store and there are boot leg cabs waiting to give you a ride in a broke down bucket!

you go to someone's house and they offer you a drink of koolaid and they ask you what flavor you wnt by saing "red or orange"

The whole family live under one roof, grandma and grandpa, cousin Ebony and her three kids, aunt Gail and her family and there are only three bedrooms

When they have pictures of family members who have been incarcerated in "they jail poses" framed on hung on the wall.

When you see children riding down the street on low-rider bicycles

When you hear gunshots and don't even bother to call the police

When you see people riding around with boomboxes in their cars instead of car radios

when there's shoes on telephone wires

seeing people fighting for bottles, for a deposit

see little boys play ball on a milk crate

when there's "porch monkey" on every hot day

when a drunk tries to sell you your own vcr he stoled just last week...
