Things Urbanites Steal The Most

Let’s face it In Urban America we steal in order to get by. No, we don’t rob banks or commit B&E’s [break in & Entry's] We still little stuff. So I’ve compiled a list of things Urbanites steal the most.

• Cable – We all know someone who has the box, got the hook up or know a guy who knows a guy that work for the cable company and knows how to steal cable. I know a lot of people were grateful that the wire started coming on BET the best free channel in the world.
• Kool-Aid – Whether it’s putting it under the pile of circulars at the bottom of your cart [or buggy depending on your geographical location] or if you just pocket a handful of kool-aid most people have or do take them. Grape or Red is the main question to ponder before committing this theft.
• Rent to Own – This is the Urbanites oldest hustle, Renting an item and moving a month after the merchandise is delivered. I have relatives who have furnished their whole apt from Rent-A-Center & Aaron’s. So next time you walk into an Urban apt and wonder why it looks like cribs on a retail salary wonder if they’ve visited R.A.C.
• Clothing – Hey girl let me borrow that shirt/dress/or shoes!! The lender knows in the back of their mind that they are never going to get those new shoes back. They know that Quisha has been plotting to borrow those since the day you bought them. Joell Ortiz reps for the dudes in one of his songs when he raps about borrowing his boys shirt in Brooklyn You don’t want that back!!!
• Your Love – The most stolen thing in the hood is… You guessed it, SEX. There is a common knowledge in Urban America that everybody sleeps with everybody. So best believe someone is going to try to sleep w/ your girlfriend/boyfriend. Chances are you know your bf/gf ex and you all probably had class together. This is the exact meaning of small world. My best friend was with my high school sweetheart before I was… Its just a part of life.
