I might as well start off with one thing that's been annoying me for months now.
It's this new trend , mostly with guys, of this ghetto gangsta style thing. Snapback hats, shirts that just have one big slogan on them from some hip-hop brand, 'street' shoes... Pretty sure most people will know what I'm talking about.
Most of the guys I've met that join in with this trend are middle class white kids. Parents are business oriented, mortgage paying upstanding members of society, went to good schools and colleges... They wouldn't know street if the crips turned up at their door and battered them to a bloody pulp. It looks ridiculous. But that's not the only annoyance. The attitude and speech is just as irritating. It's this whole white-kids-talking-like-they're-black thing.
'Yo girl, you got a well peng body girl, ya gonna let me get on that?'
Peng? Is this how you hit on girls now? And get on what? The only thing you're getting on is a stretcher when you're on the way to hospital to have a snapback removed from your rectum if you dare try using a line like that on me.
I have to say, I laughed my ass off this morning when I read one of these kids complaining that 'everyone was wearing this stuff now'. Who does this sound like?
Hipsters.
Those rich kids that buy expensive clothes to make them look like they're poor, they do things 'differently' to try and be original, they like bands and groups no one's heard of and drop them like rocks when they get 'too mainstream'. If it wasn't instinct they'd stop breathing because everyone else does it; and maybe they should. Complain about corporations while holding a starbucks coffee, completely ignorant to the fact that they look like every other fucker in a hole ridden knitted jumper and chinos.
What kind of real street kid would be able to afford these things? It's taking the piss out of those that actually live in these kind of street conditions. Hip hop artists may make it seem totally cool, but I can damn near guarantee that the people wearing these expensive ghetto clothes wouldn't last 5 minutes in a real street environment. Same with the hipsters who spend so much on looking like they shopped in a salvation army bin. It's pretty offensive actually. People in deprived areas will probably never get the chance to enjoy a life that privileged, and making it into some sort of trivialised style for the rich kids is seriously taking the piss.
Go back to your trust funds and stop acting like such dicks.
