Living in the projects as a kid. I remember on weekend where my mom almost got into a fight with out next door neighbor, it was like 8 of them fuckers and it was me my brother my mom and step dad. It was like the whole projects came around to see the fights. Had niggaz from my school tell me to hit that how in the head with a rock. Someone from their clan came from the back with a baseball bat and my step dad up that thang and the whole projects scattered like roaches.

You had salmon ? (Insert wee bay pic)

It's GOAT on the grill

really?

I could eat salmon all day if I could.. my mom ate it ALL THE TIME when she was carrying me, that might be why lol

That isn't good though lol. Fish is one thing a woman should avoid when she's pregnant.

the fuck?

 
do some people feel that the people who come from non-materialistic ghetto families, hold back the ones who come from materialistic ghetto families, because they believe we are not hood because we live more materialistic in it? Did these people assume that materialistic families were rich, because they were flashy? Did they choose the wrong mission in life by going 2 war with the huxables, and they actually get other people from the ghetto mixed up with the huxables because we had clothes and t.v.s?

Did some think that these materialistic things saved souls and actually separated people from the same struggle? I feel that these people mission in life need to be re-directed. They are getting too much money to go to war with black middle class america.. on top of that they are getting the ones that grew up in the ghetto mixed up as we come up gradually. Therefore these people are stopping people from getting jobs. I remember some jealous teenage girls would tare up my application because they assume I had parents to eat off.. (What do she need to work here for?}

I think the people from materialistic ghetto families have it way harder. We are not accepted by either or, and the ones that grew up deprived from material things seem to hold a grudge because they think we mocked them with our material things. These are the ones who get money just to hold us back. They fail to realize we still was in the same communities and project housing... and on top of that we wind up being in the street with money, so therefore we faced more jealousy and our lives were targeted.
 
I really never ranned into anyone ashamed to be middle class, I just feel some people are targeting the wrong people as never coming from the struggle. There are different kind of ghetto families... Most people where I'm from act middle class when they wasn't. They admired the middle class and wish they were a huxable. they lived uppity in the projects. I never experienced people who thought people were ashamed of being middle class, until I ranned across counter parts of the RAP GAME. Thats because they are into marketing themselves as hood. & some of the characters are not really as hood as they claim, so they feel that others are just claiming to be hood as a marketing tool. In the real world nobody disses the middle class.

when three of my cousins all 'dated' the same dude

when my cousin and my sister 'dated' the same dude

when my brother and my cousin 'dated' the same chick, then they friend 'dated' her

when my moms and Auntie used to get drunk and reminisce about they younger yrs. Arguing over who made they mother the maddest
 
when i saw my 30somethin year old cousin riding a skateboard wearing the helmet method man wears in the triumph vid

every time i went to my aunts house, she had us eating salisbury steak tv dinners. i remember her microwave more than any other aspect of her ol crusty ass house

when i realized more than half of my male cousin's names end in the "on" sound.

my cousins give their kids names like they just button mashed a keyboard.. "da'mia'shontileae'

one of my cousins pulled a double ghetto move and named his daughter alize, not because he liked the alcohol, but because it's 2pacs favorite alcohol.

i got an uncle named juan and he ain't even latino

my aunt that makes the salisbury steak dinners has a wardrobe that only consists of sweats and she come through looking like felicia from friday

when my uncle would go to jail and i asked where he was my parents would say he was on vacation. i'm like damn, this cat must be rich going on vacation all the time.

my other uncle came through every time something related to black people happened. he was there when 2pac died, when aaliyah died, to this day the man still talks about michael jackson's death every time i see him. HE CAME THROUGH WHEN JIGGA MAN DROPPED "GIRLS." Who does that? and he pointed out every stupid little thing in the vid like Dame walking away in the end and you can see him limp his leg for a sec

same uncle came through one time talmbout "they're giving out free car washes down the street!" and my parent's were thinking, "huh?" and he said "ya! they giving out free car washes." turns out the car wash was for donations for a fundraiser, he got his car washed and when they told him optional donation, he said swag and kept driving

my aunts friends were drinking 40s at her funeral

inside the funeral home

while the services were taking place.

When I got to maybe 11 years old, going to various restaurants and seeing the same plates, glasses, pitchers, mugs, salt/pepper shakers and serving spoons in our cupboards. I think I still have those Black Angus salt/pepper shakers. I said to myself, "No wonder Moms always brought her big bag."

Bringing tupperware to buffets. Create a mountain of pasta, bring it back to your table then transfer it to the tupperware. I seen that before when I went out with my aunties/uncles. I was like WTF?
