Oh no, that is too much for me. I would have been so freaked out. loooooool, my sister was on the train on time and she was reading a book and some man was lookin' at the book while she was reading and when she turned the page the dude sucked is teeth and said he wasn't done with the page. LOL what? he better get his own book then. As for me I am seriously reserving that word for idiots. In America is is so common white people are called "wiggas", Mexicans "Miggas", Chinese "Chiggas" (All asians really because most Americans believe China = Asia); etc LOL. Its rediculous but its accepted. So anyone regardless of race who does dumb schitt is acting "n.ggarish" but I wont use it as a term of endearment anymore because I refuse to continue to be two sided. LOL okay those are new to me, never heard those words used b4. Miggas? . . . . lol and latinos say nigga all the time but apparently they have a nigga pass so they're cool And the only time it is "tolerated" for a white person to use that word too is if all his friends are black or he's hood like eminem. smh |

umm that list is bogus in so many ways. anyways i know what i'm talking about. lived in the area my whole life (well not dc per se) but the dc area. and idk WHY NY is that far down the list, OHkay. And are we talking about crime and safety or just fire arm death bcuz that could explain why alaska may be #2 or why alot of the southern states are so high up, so once again, why the list And btw DC is not a state. |
Career / Re: What Is The Best Thing U Like About your Workplace by naijadiva2(f): 9:40pm On Oct 29, 2010 |
I love my workplace bcuz it is very chill, no one breathing down your back and annoying you, they're like my family outside of home, we have parties for everything. Noone's harrassing u about being to work on time (but dont make it a habit or don't lie about either) or about anything. Flexible schedule and paid sick leaves, vacations, holidays. awesome benefits. free benefits for public transportation. dislike: it can get really quiet and boring here but i still love it. And not enough eateries around so yea, every once in a whle you'll hear ppl complaining about the kitchen downstairs lol nethacker: Im jealous o |

afam4eva: she can't list them all lol another thing, when it comes to racism, white pple in the south (by tradition) tend to be more hidden about it. they will smile if your face, scorn u at your back. they call it "southern hospitality." (but a few pple will call u nigger or stinkin' african in your face. that has happened to me many many times) Thats a lie, i think u got it mixed up. In the south, if the whites hate u, they hate u and you'll know it, if they love u, they love u. up north its more subtle and hidden bcuz the average population is not going to allow such bull like that to happen so they do it a very quiet way. Let's just say i better be in the middle of nowhere up north then down south. |

omega25red: I knew u were gonna bring up SE (how typical), but the truth of the matter is If u do not have a decent job or make enough $$$, forget about living in DC period. SE is one section and not all of SE is bad. People over-exaggerate when talking about DC. you can go to any low-income hood in america, its gonna be rough, even DC is safer then B-more. And I'm sure if u go down south, u can find homes for almost the same price. *shrugs* JeSoul: Don't be fooled, (unless u want to be dodging bullets everyday) that price is only relevent to the hood areas even some "hood" areas in DC are charging arm and leg for residency. If u want to live in very normal neighbor, house, appartment, its stll expensive. you're best bet is moving to MD or VA. Well anyways, one day I hope to move to DC, once i start making proper $$$ Lol |

@inked_nerd ^^^ LOL oh my, I dont do ipods becuz ipod theft is on the rise and besides i need to be alert, too many crazies. Matter of fact, about 3 yrs ago, i was listening to my ipod on the train and some young fool sat next to me, took one of my ear piece thingy and started listening to music with me WTF, I was so shocked that somebody would do something like that i didn't say anything then he takes it out of his ear and gets off the train, lol omg too much for me. i just ready the daily express paper that they distribute every morning. |

( Philadelphia- ok area, can be ghetto in certain places (9) Pennsylvania- parts of PA kinda racist (10) Virginia- northern VA is cool and hip, southern VA, again, depending on the where u go to is a bit racist and country lol ie: southwest VA. LOL u want to aviod racist ppl, they are everywhere lol omega25red: DC is not even that bad, ppl are killed everyday is VA, im sure; its just not reported in the news. |

@op I've heard that some african parents give their children foreign names bcuz they feel that their children will be discriminated less, ie: when applying for job, going to a nice university, etc. and for some, its has to do with inferiority. My first and last name is african. my middle name is english. Growing up, some of my african classmates preferred being called by their english middle name instead of their african first name. I never did, but i did get tired of ppl messing up my name or if we had a substitute teacher and they had to call the roll for attendance, the min they started stumbling I knew it was my name they were trying to call lol. The name i go by today is the same name i went by at birth; no changing, shortening, substituting, remixing my name. And if i do have kids in the future, i'm giving them straight african names. |
