Quote from: Ben-San
"a higher education and lower upbringing."

Putting it that way makes it sound like he talks in the exact reverse of GWB.

Which... actually is exactly how Beef talks.

CAN'INATED.

Maybe she's confusing Beef with Little Nephew.

My friends call me the Mayor.
My enemies don't call me anything.  'Cuz they're all dead.

I almost asked who GWB was, then I realized.  Thanks for bringing me down, LFM.

I found out yesterday that the word "Ebonics" was coined by a prof at my school in the early 70's. He is not well-liked.
He also attempted to "even the score" on culturally biased tests by making a test (the B.I.T.C.H. test, I forget what it stands for) that white students would lack the cultural context to pass.
