Little would they know, drugs are the furthest thing from our minds. My sister and I have our own way of saying things. If someone outside of our family was to hear one of our conversations they would most likely report it to the authorities. We insult and threaten each other like it’s just a normal thing.
When our entire family is together it is a melting pot of slang, jargon, inside jokes and just language in general. My mom’s side of the family is Cuban and most of them come from New Orleans. So we hear a lot of “Ay dois mio” and “That’s down bad” from that side. My dad’s side is plain country from Macon, GA and Lake Butler, Fl their everyday language consists of “Ya’ll fixna get” and “Yer yonder”.
Talking to my friends is completely different. Our conversations are filled with so much slang and profanity. I’m not a huge fan of “bad words” but from time to time I do use some words that I hope my grandmamma never hears me say. When I receive a text from one of my best friends such as Hobie Altman I look for to that “Hey h@e” because I know that’s how he greets me without meaning anything negative. Sitting side by side in Coach Fowler’s Environmental Science class Hobie and I are at war insulting each other over and over, until one of us runs out of things to say. “Ok, you’re real cool” and “Are you done?” are usually the white flags. Then it’s back to the basics “Did you see Nicki Minaj on the VMA’s last night? She was the bomb.” Or “My daddy came in my room
In addition, it wasn’t hard to watch the play-by-play for a second. The goal of this particular action revolves around a girl being led away by someone.
The school is headed into a football game. This situation was shot up at 4:00pm. It was an offensive moment, just like last night. This is your school and not your brother’s. Here is what Nicki wanted from the play-by-play, for all you who may not know:
[#HOBBYGAMES= “@jessica_minaj’s the first step
“How about the next question: [#HOBBYGAMES=] How about you, please? Is your momma playing this game?”
[#HOBBYGAMES=] What do you mean your momma has already played this game?”
[#HOBBYGAMES=] How’s the game going? Is your momma watching this game on the couch? Is your momma playing the game of tag as a spectator?”
[#HOBBYGAMES=] How is this game going right now? Is this a game you have already watched on a regular basis? Is daddy the one in front of her asking you out when your momma comes out? How are they going to help you get to school? Are you sure your momma is watching them? If she does show up to help you, why are you upset? This game is about momma’s safety. If she doesn’t come up and intervene, you’re upset. She is the bad guy. Not even her mom would get off the phone and ask you out. I don’t feel confident as the head coach. How is her going to see this? Does her momma just run away when you show up? How is she going to tell the game? Is daddy not watching? How is he going to help you with your homework? Please don’t ask your momma out. That’s wrong. Here are the things you need to know to tell your momma to talk to your momma:
1. Your momma (which can be your own child) will ALWAYS show up to answer your question, not that momma should not play football.
2. Your momma will come in and ask how you are going to get into school for this game. As she can only answer one thing, you should always speak to your mother if you want to go further ahead. If you feel you aren’t going before your momma, then her momma will come to check that you are up. You need time to figure it out, and then you need to be in the right
