Wonder why white people don't come up with hip phrases.
Blacks do.
Whites say "hey" as in hello.
Hmmm...

Interesting. I'll have to research if 'GROOVY' was of solely white origin.
You're probably right, eh1eh1.
LOL !!!
Speaking of LOL??? ----Is that not White Eubonics ?

The beatniks...which actually encompassed any race I suppose...had their own language going.
Daddy-o...that was pretty damn crakerish...
I dunno....what do you mean by black language? You mean street language? Urban language? Swahili? Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton language? What do you mean exactly?

He could mean like NWA, Staight out of Compton, Kill Whitey, Kill Whitey, Kill Whitey, Kill Whitey, Kill Whitey, Kill Whitey, Kill Whitey, Kill Whitey, Kill Whitey, Kill Whitey, Kill Whitey, Kill Whitey, Kill Whitey, Kill Whitey, Kill Whitey.. you get the idea. <grin>:wave:
That song is more than 15 years old, if they didn't getcha yet! Hey I guess i'm just old. LOL:wave:
Fifteen years old!! Holy crap. That means I'm old! Wow. I can't believe it has been almost 15 years since Kurt Cobain died. I was just finishing highschool then....ohhhhh....sooo old.
cool, dude, munchies, peace man, radical, tubular
Just because hip hop is top o the charts and "popular". Hippies, punkers and surfers have all contributed colourful language to our culture.

Got something against crackers? We're Crackolious.
That's what I've been calling everyone at work ie: Mike=Mikeolicous. I kill me.
English is a European/Germanic language. It was created by what you refer to as "white people". What do you mean they don't come up with cool phrases? I wouldn't consider the bastardisation of the English language as cool. When was the last time you heard a "hip" person pronounce WITH or ASKED?
*sigh*
I'm not a cracker. I'm a giant teddybear according to wifey

Hmmm...
Teddybear ? How about Graham Cracker ?

Actually the African-American people have tried a few times to have Ebonics designated as a specific language for their heritage....
There were other languages in the early slave days which were used to pass along secret code messages to each other which the slave-masters would not understand....
In the 1980s I think California spent a great deal of money on English as a Second Language classrooms for children primarily from Mexico - or other latin nations, and the federal government
contributed to this as well. Not wanting to be left by the curb, the African American teachers and parents and activists tried to have Ebonics also taught as another language - but it was turned down
when the governments realized it was throwing money after a bad idea.
Relatively few African Americans use hiphop or gangsta rap language - but as most are celebrities, athletes, comedians, or law-breakers - and often make it to the television camera.... people seem to think all "Blacks" talk as they do..... and perhaps many do when they are with friends .... generally English is their language of choice and while they have some great "special words".... they are included in the English speaking population these days....
