And we have gansta wannabes down here in Chichester too, thanks to being rail-linked to London.
: : : So I run over to the store to pick up a soda. I'm in line behind this gangsta kid. He's in his late teens. There is a display on the counter of car deodorizers. It says something to the effect of "Car Scents" on it. So this kid picks one up, removes the cap & sprays it into his mouth. His face screws up & he looks at the asian guy behind the counter & asks 'what, is this for cars?'
:
: So, maybe the kid thought it would give his breath that "new car smell"....
: For whoever indicated that "gangsta" refers to blacks, that isn't entirely true, there are white gangsta wannabes in the city, and possibly in the country. I see them all time. And far as I'm concerned the skinheads are gangstas too. So gangsta is an ambiguous term, dosn't denote race at all, to say it does it rather racist.
: This story didn't have to go anywhere. The title said it all. It was a "Clerks" moment. Watch the DVD again.
