Athletes were on another planet, as were the black engineers and law students. Greeks lived in a different solar system. The gospel choir and their groupies held a lot of sway. Then there were those whose behavior was extra because of the very name of the school, etc etc... @The Champ,

I also laugh at white people dancing. And try to tell if they're drunk, epileptic or just bad.My favorite NYC subway game is where's the rat. Extra points for babies, rats fighting, rats found on the platform, rats with missing or extra parts, rat copulation, or rats in humorous situation (like dragging an item bigger than himself or talking or something). Triple bonus for any ratVpigeon actions.@ThePhiladelphiaNegroYo those random congratulations for attempting graduate studies is what keeps me trying to continue in school. Side note: a man was outside the mall trying to sign people up to go to school. I was walking by with my girl and ol' boy straight up ignores me and yells at my girl "you need to go back to school" like she was a delinquent. When she said she was in school he didn't believe her and grilled her all about her masters program. Didn't say shit to me. I got my comeuppance (another word that should be used more like mendacity and misanthrope) for making fun of her looking like a high school truant. Same outing got accosted by a pimp trying to recriut me and straight ignored my girl. Guaranteed my girl always looks like she got a knife on her and knows how to use it. Even in proffesional work clothes @The Champ
